Jim Davis of the ag extension service has given lectures in the past at the rec centers on the care and feeding of palms. With the COVID-19 situation, I doubt there will be an opportunity to see him in the near future but you might want to look out for his lectures if they return in the more distant future. One recommendation he did make was to use Lesco 8-2-12-4 fertilizer. I use that on my Sylvester Palms, not sure if it is appropriate for Pindos. It is most easily obtained from fertilzerdirect.com. If you have a specific issue I believe you can e-mail Jim. I don't recall his e-mail address but you should be able to find it via Google.
