Resumen
It may surprise you to learn that citrus trees can get too much sunshine in the Sunshine State. In fact, manipulating the light environment around the plants can have several surprising benefits. Shade can both suppress the HLB cycle and enhance citrus health and yield in Florida. Overall, a mildly shaded citrus plant is likely to have fewer HLB-spreading psyllids, less severe HLB symptoms, fewer signs of stress, and higher yield.
