Need some advice with what's wrong with my mandarin plant. Planted it a little under a year ago because an orange I ate had a seed in it and it was doing great even after bringing it in for the winter for several months, growing steadily. The following fungal gnat plague never bothered it and nothing outside ever seemed to care to touch it, but about a month ago I noticed some spider mites were on it (for probably too long that I didn't noticed because fucking fungal gnats) and I dealt with that, but its leaves still keep falling off.
So I'm not sure what the issue is, if there's still spider mites I just can't find, if they dumb bugs gave it some sort of disease, if it's just still reeling from the mites, or if it's just too stressed out from something else. I've been fertilizing it somewhat regularly, been trying to not overwater it by checking deep soil wetness, and even gave it some micronutrient foliar spray I just got a week ago.
So I'm at a loss what its problem is.
