Answer 1

you can't MAKE anything grow bigger or faster than it's going to... all you can do is provide it what it needs... sun, air, food and water and let it do as it can..... when it's happy it will grow.... if there's something keeping it from growing, like bad soil, you gotta fix that, but even then, the plant will need time to adjust and start growing better..... then there's TIME.... trees need to be old enough to bear good fruit... and young trees shouldn't even be allowed to have fruit on for a couple years, until the plant is well situated in the ground..... there's no 'hurry up' in growing plants............unless you're a commercial greenhouse and you have the chemicals that will do the job.... the problem there is that the plants grow abnormally and only keep it up while getting the chemicals.... not a good thing for long term .....

I live in southern Florida and many people here are having the same experience.  We have been in a drought for 2 years, and even good watering has not seemed to offset the lack of rainfall.  Young trees grow slowly.  Compounding the drought problem has been citrus leafminer, which attacks the new grow, often causing the leaves to fall off after they fully expand.  This slows the growth of the young tree.  

Fertilize your trees with a good fertilizer containing micronutrients.  Also buy some of citrus nutritional spray, and spray this on the leaves.  Citrus respond to nutrients absorbed through the leaves, and a small bottle lasts a long time.  

Leafminers can be controlled on non-bearing citrus using an insecticide containing imidacloprid, made by Bayer, and readily available in garden centers, building supplies, even Walmart.      Good luck.
