Why is my Myers lemon tree leaves showing wet spots and small lemons getting soft? I planted this tree two weeks ago in a big pot with the recommended potting soil.

Marion County Mississippi

Expert Response

I think the lemon tree is going through transplant shock and causing the little lemons to fall off

After moving the Myers lemon in full sun and rain it finally has returned to normal. The tree lost a lot of its leaves but looks a lot healthier with bigger lemons after a few good rains. Thanks for all your help from your response. I truly appreciate having a website like this.
