    I live on Greek Island, lucky me, so its natural to have Fruit trees which I have. All quite young
    2/3 years old. The problem the foilage is very light in colour not the darker green of my nieghbours. Every person I have asked locally has different answer, can anyone help/

    Sorry Stamford, welcome anyway, but not enough info. What type of trees? What is your soil type? What do your neighbours actually say? (They are on the spot so presumably have some idea). Is there any difference between your garden and next door? There are some very good gardeners on here but not many clairvoyants.:)

    Hi Stamford welcome to the forum,I would suggest you get a soil testing kit take a sample of yours and your neighbours soil see if there's a difference.

    Hi Stamford - hope you sort out your problem. With any detective work start at the very basics and then rule out each option one at a time - sun, shade, water availability, type of soil, supplementary feeding, depth of soil, pests... etc

    You'll get there !
