Scientifically, citrus trees enter a <strong>new growth cycle in autumn and early winter<\/strong>, which means their water requirements remain significant during this period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If rainfall is insufficient, <strong>irrigation becomes necessary<\/strong> to support the tree\u2019s vital processes, particularly root growth and the formation of flower buds that will bloom in the next growth season. A lack of water during this stage can have clear negative effects, first affecting the fruits, followed by the leaves and branches, with the feeder roots being impacted first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Insufficient irrigation during fruit development can lead to <strong>smaller fruit size, reduced juice content, and lower overall quality<\/strong>. Therefore, it is recommended to <strong>monitor soil moisture<\/strong> and implement a balanced irrigation schedule that aligns with the amount of rainfall received.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":3103,"template":"","categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3107","blog","type-blog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-en"],"blocksy_meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/3107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3107"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/organic-g.com\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
