    Excellent soil mix. Sand is underrated as a potting medium.

    Please graft a known variety. Mango from seed is a waste of time. 1%-5% of getting an ok tasting fruit after 5-7yrs. Graft and you will be eating tasty fruit in 1-3yr. Do your research

    Is it hard to grow mangoes in Dallas Texas?

      You need to protect it during winter and need an acidic well draining soil

    Is this sea sand?🧐🤔

    I tried this, and unfortunately did not work as ex[ected. Here, in Bay Area, this mixture retains too much moisture in humid winters -- when watered, takes several weeks to completely dry out. Even the 50lbs sand bags that I have bought from big box stores remain moist throughout the winter. The top half may appear dry, but if I remove the soil from the pot, the bottom half is more than moist.

    Sea sand is okay for help in drainage but depends where you live

    How big is the mango now? How fast do they grow here?

      It's been a slow grower but it did well over winter. No die back which is a success for me :) I'm hoping now it will start to put out some growth since weather is warmer and I just put it out in full sun.
