    Regenerative agriculture and permaculture practices help mitigate the problem. Dr Elaine Ingham says they have had success reversing greening.

    Wow you did good figuring out a way around the problem. Was there no spray that was safe to use?

    Can I ask if you ever used citrus greening treatments when you first planted your orchard as a preventative?

      I used one made by bayer. I’m still watching that tree.

    WOW!! That's scary. Hope your orchard is protected now that those insect aren't able to invade your greenhouse. Why did you grow so many keylimes? Is it for business? Good luck and thank you for sharing.

      Time will tell. The dream is to repopulate south Florida with key limes again. Honestly it’s a hobby that’s got out of control.

    Can you send me the link for the $20 tree defender netting? Have you had any experience growing sugarbelle? Supposed to have greening tolerance

      Yes I have a little experience with sugar belle. There are root stocks that do tolerate greening better than others. I found stock 892 to survive greening in key limes. Www.thetreedefender.com
