just the shock from moving it from a ideal growing environment at the nursery to your home. I bought my mother one a bit ago and it did the same thing, they warned me about it at the nursery and said its nothing to worry about, its doing great now! remember, full sun, no cold weather, moist soil is great for those nice citrus plants.

If it's a very new plant, it's probably just going into shock from being planted. Citrus roots are primarily on or near the surface, and there isn't a lot of that available in the standard sized pots.

Lemon leaves will turn yellow from not enough water and from too much water, both of which are soil related.

Next thing is to look for nutrient problems. Try a specially formulated citrus food. Then, if this is not enough:

Chlorosis, which is a shortage of iron, will cause lemon leaves to turn yellow, but in a specific progressive pattern where the veins of the leaves remain green longest. Dunno if you can buy iron sulfate anymore or if they-all in Homeland Security are thinking this is a blow people up chemical nowadays. If you can get it it will work wonders, follow the instructions on the bag. Iron gets absorbed slowly so this will not be an immediate fix.

Finally, some soils don't have enough Magnesium for citrus, so Epsom Salts are the solution. Mg and Fe replace each other chemically, so try addiing iron first as it's more likely.

I oftentimes choose for to think of - organic and organic, self reliant and self reliant between residing house and backyard so I advise right here: a million) you may desire to objective using all the espresso grounds out of your man or woman and your friends' kitchen as a floor fertilizer which will percolate down into the soil as water pulls it down after it rains or a stable watering. And while you're fortunate adequate to be a cat or canine proprietor, 2) you may desire to dig a small trench around the drip line or everywhere interior it to easily bury the organic and extremely rich fertilizer that your cats or canine produce. I t particular does artwork. I as quickly as observed a backyard that turn into so green and yielded outstanding vegetables and wholesome vivid vegetables which you would be able to easily think of "wow, those people ought to fertilize for all time.". as quickly as I commented i turn into informed with an excellent smile that they had 2 canine and the secret turn into printed. They mentioned which you dig the ditch slightly at a time like for a week, fill it in and then conceal in the previous making waiting for the subsequent area. satisfied gardening and satisfied fertilizing. all the superb.

I've had the same problem come and go with mine, but it produces tons of lemons anyway.

Provided you've got good drainage, then it's probably a soil issue. Since that's really specific, I suggest you ask the people at the nursery. They could probably tell you what fertilizer and amendments it needs to fit your area.

Good luck with your tree.

Buy some trace elements - its got all of the iron, magnesium etc in it that plants need. Give it some normal N:P:K fertilizer too, or buy one that contains trace elements.

check that the plant isn't too wet

if you have similar things happening to other plants nearby, it may be the pH.
PH too high or low can lock nutrients in the soil making them unavailable to plants.

Probably it's lack of iron.
Mix water with iron and
water the plant with it.
