one member of local croatian forum asked a question about kumquat. His kumquat blossoms every year a month later then the last year. is that normal for juvenile kumquat?

I guess it waits till fruits are ripe.
So if it takes more than a year, the bloom gets later year for year ...

My Kumquats always are the last to bloom. They all start blooming in June. They are all in the ground and produce large crops.

My Eustis limequat started blooming mid-June and will continue to bloom until the first frost (End of Dec).

They do go well with Corona. Laughing

Yes, slices of Limequats do well in beer, that has not really a good taste by
itself .. Razz

Phytophthora infection can cause "a brown, oozing gum (like dark, thick
honey) on the trunk and branches".

I cut back as much as possible,till i saw no red dot anymore in the middle of the braches ,and treated the stumps with anti fungus from bayer,on a sulfur base.
Till now i see no red gum poring out anymore.
Clean,t my sheare with alcohol.
Will see if i get this under control.

I suggest to treat the WHOLE plant.

If it is Phytophthora or another fungus, then the hyphs surely are all inside the plant already.

Against phytophthora sulfur is not efficient. Only fosetyl based stuff like Aliette from Bayer can help.
