You will want to use 2 spikes per tree, 1 on each side about 30" from the trunk. We have a rectangular orchard with about 20 trees on 10 foot centers that we put in last year. We used a total of 40 spikes on the east and west sides of each tree. I would also recommend that you purchase a handheld auger (Yard Butler 30 inch Roto Digger) to drill into the ground about 18 inches before dropping in the spike. You want your roots to go down for their nutrients rather than across the surface, and burying the fertilizer stakes helps make that happen.These say right on the package do not use within 30 inches of tree trunk". Take that seriously. Buried or not, they will burn your roots if you stick them right next to the trunk. **Q: meyer lemon** A: I use this for my apple trees and yes I get bigger and better apples. This formula (9-12-12) is for fruit and citrus. Lower nitrogen for less greenery and higher phosphorous and potassium for improved fruit production. If you want to grow lemons on your "meyer lemon" then this is what you want. **Q: Can this be used for potted citrus tree** A: I have used spikes in potted trees but I'm not so sure they don't burn the plants, personally I wouldn't do it again at least not those large spikes, I think you are safer with a time released granular product. Spikes are wonderful for in ground trees where you can place them at the edge of the drip line, but in my opinion they are too close to the trunk in a potted container and will burn the plant. **Q: Package undelivered as of 4/19/2019. Please explain?** A: Hasn't got to you yet ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***N on 26 February 2021* Satisfait ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***H on 8 October 2015* Like my product ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***E on 14 September 2025* Jobe makes great products, and these fertilizer spikes are no exception. I had a struggling loquat tree that wasn’t doing very well, so I placed the spikes around the outer root area. Within just a few months, the tree improved dramatically, and now I’m able to harvest delicious fruit from it. They’re easy to use, effective, and clearly make a noticeable difference in tree health. TL;DR: Easy-to-use spikes that revived my loquat tree and boosted fruit production. ## Frequently Bought Together - Jobe’s Garden Fertilizer Spikes, Easy Plant Care Slow Release Fertilizer for Fruit and Citrus Plants and Trees, 15 Count - Miracle-Gro Fruit & Citrus Plant Food Spikes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/261968564-garden-fertilizer-spikes-easy-plant-care-slow-release-fertilizer-fruit](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/261968564-garden-fertilizer-spikes-easy-plant-care-slow-release-fertilizer-fruit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
