▲ 9 r/Citrus

Hello! I had posted about my meyer lemon tree a while back here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Citrus/s/HoVrn7aBu6

...and followed the advice I received. I got rid of the spider mites, added Jack's citrus and bushwacker calmag (although idk how frequently I should be using them, so any help there is appreciated!) and the light has been increasing naturally as it stays outdoors almost constantly now, only coming inside when the temps dip below 55°F overnight (Kentucky, USA, 6b and Spring currently). I've applied DE as well (as you'll see in the photos).

Now she's kinda looking terrible and started dropping leaves like crazy. I have recently watered her with calmag, so you'll see the soil is damp now, but gets dry between waterings. Is this type of pot keeping her roots wet or something? Or is it poor fertilization scheduling? Also, can I give calmag and jacks citrus in the same watering? (I have not) Please help me learn how to do this the correct way? I'm an avid learner and want to care for her WELL. TIA, reddit!
