There is no need to maintain separation between netted and non-netted citrus trees. The chances of cross-pollination by wind and other factors is zero because only seedless netted varieties are the closest to other plants.

The final crop yield remains the same with or without the use of citrus netting. However, by using citrus netting, the return on your yield is way higher.

The ideal time to apply citrus netting is during the fortnight gap that occurs between harvest and bloom period.

Citrus growers have observed that best results by applying the citrus netting for 4-8 weeks.

Based on the harvest schedule, it is best to plan your netting activity for the year at least 6 months prior to the actual installation. This gives you enough time to make all the preparations.

To enable easy installation and removal of citrus netting, most citrus growers prune and top the trees at 3-3.5 meters. The advantage of maintaining the height and width of the trees is that it ensures that the citrus netting fits year after year, offering you more value for money.

Pruning and topping the citrus trees at 3-3.5 meters height does not impact productivity at all.

In fact, it improves ease of harvesting with help of ladders. At this height, safety concerns are also significantly reduced.

In taller trees, the lower branches remain unproductive due to poor access to sunlight.

The best time to use the citrus netting is before blooming. To prevent cross pollination by bees, the insect netting for fruit trees has to be placed before the blooms are up.

While planning your harvest cycle, make sure to pencil in the time schedule for installation of the citrus netting.
