Answer:

over drainage is not suitable for citrus

Step-by-step explanation:

All citrus trees require deep soil having both good surface and internal drainage. Surface drainage refers to runoff to prevent water standing around the tree. ... Avoid soils that have a high caliche content or are excessively salty, as citrus trees will not grow well in such soils.Remember that all citrus trees can die from overwatering as well as insufficient water. One of the main signs of overwatering is if your Meyer lemon tree has yellow leaves or drops leaves. ... This means that the older leaves will turn yellow while the new growth will appear healthy. In the case of severe deficiency, the leaves will brown and fall off the tree.
