The branch with the big, curling leaves is just extra-vigorous. Unless you see aphids (little green bugs on the bottom of the leaves) there shouldn't be a problem.
Your tree probably needs a good soaking about once a month. The fertilizer didn't have anything to do with the taste or rind thickness. That's more an environmental thing.

A lot of rind and sour tasting sounds like a description of the Seville oranges we use for marmalade, might be a good way to use them. I start most days with home made marmalade.
