I am having problems with my mayer lemon tree. It's doing better but I think my soil ph is too high or missing something in my fertilizer. My fertilizer is 5-3-4, what do you guys use for your indoor lemon tree? Or any pointers would be great! Thank you in advance.

Forgot to add, it lost all the leaves but one this past winter due to pest, so don't judge the lack of leafs too harshly lol
