Hi,
Check out this abc recipe, I have used it several times and it is a good all rounder. http://www.abc.net.au/gardening/stories/s2033311.htm
Also i have a large tub of worm and chicken poo with some banna skins that i put a cup into my large bucket with water and make a week tea and feed my tree. All my plants except the tropicals love it. I had transplanted citruses that where sticks with 5 leaves (no joking) and 4 months later they are bushy and thriving.
I recommend the folair feeder in the abc recipe first as it will correct deficiencies.
And remember to 'feed' the trees around the dripline to get to the roots. Instead of near the trunk as citrus roots are near the top of the soil. And make sure that they have no competition from weeds. As it was the couche grass that was killing my trees, by sucking up all the water and nutrients, i have since moved most of them to pots.
Cheers Leah
