@edibletropicaltrees Also if you could, add in how you acidify the soil, and do you have to do it often? I love mangoes 🥭, have grown some from seed, but they croaked. I'd like to get one or two going again!
I check the pH of the soil at least once a month, to make sure it is in the correct range. To lower pH I add sulfur. There are different kinds of sulfur. Native sulfur only breaks down when temperatures are above 80°F. So in the winter I use ammonium sulphate, because it will break down at lower temperatures. Also sometimes I will put cup of vinegar in a gallon of water and pour it around the perimeter of the trees. I keep the pH of the soil on the East side of the house between 6.0 & 7.0
I like all the information you added to this video. Very informative.
Thanks for watching. I try to give information that will help people grow better healthier tree, that has helped my trees grow better.
