You can order budwood from Alex at his site

White and yellow colour observe much less heat so much better
@fruitfultrees paul next video should be about grafting different varieties on mature trees without topworking.. tips tricks methods for best results.
Yes! Mahmood Vickarabad!!! 😆
Preciate u Paul. Awesome content. Maybe one day if possible u could do a video on Carribean viarities of Mangos and 🥑's with their Pros and Cons. God bless.
Whatever you do if you live in Florida don’t plant an east Indian 😂 very bad with disease
We are hoping to do a video on the Caribbean ones this season
we plan to in this summer
@FruitfulTrees *IMPORTANT QUESTIO* hey Paul, what if I have a tree and love the mango but I want to graft different varieties without top working the entire tree can I do so????
@@deshawnthompson5592 yeah, I’ve seen people do this. I was planning on doing the same thing. Even if it doesn’t work out, you can just cut it off.
Hi Paul great timing on this video. Im currently trying to topwork a problematic Carrie for a honey kiss. Best of luck on your project!
Hi Paul, love your videos! Ive learned so much in the few months I've been going through all your content. Was just watching your video with Alex about budwood from a year ago and I ❤❤❤ the shirt you were wearing! So anyway, how do I choose rootstock for the grafts I want to use? Many thanks to you and the fruitful 5 for sharing all that amazing knowledge
you can use any rootstock but most people use seedling from Turpentine Mango
@@FruitfulTrees good to know, thank you, now I need to find a source for discarded turpentine pits lol. I'll be swinging down for some of the mango events this summer I'm sure.
Alex you can top work your NDM#4 to be a Banilejo
We are actually turning it into a P-22 but we have a stump identified for the Banilejo topwork next
Thank you for the update.
What is the white powder around the trees ? Thank you
Does he mail them out ? I’m three hours away. Could I add bud wood on a new Carrie tree I just had installed ?
Yes we ship them and yes, any mango should be graft compatible with the Carrie
Is a grafted Glenn tree a good one to topwork?
Yes sure, you can topwork the Glenn
What would happen if I grafted a pumpkin pie mamey scion onto a seedling from a mamey I got at a local market. I wonder if it would still be dwarf or if the root stock would be too vigorous
What is a pumpkin pie Mamey ? Sounds delicious, I have a key west , hasn’t fruited yet
@@jesuswarnedusaboutthem7710 a “dwarf” and slower growing mamey variety
Supposed to taste similar to pumpkin pie, kind of rare. Expensive when found
@@chaselex do u have one? I always thought Mamey tasted like pumpkin pie anyway
In the Florida nursery trade there isn’t much of a preference given to cultivars when it comes to rootstock, so we would speculate that it would still grow the same rate if you grafted it to a random seed from a store bought mamey
From what I remember oil base paints can kill the tree. You wouldn’t really use oil base paints anymore. I do at work with steel all the time, but it would kill trees from what I remember seeing.
*IMPORTANT QUESTION* hey Paul, what if I have a tree and love the mango but I want to graft different varieties without top working the entire tree can I do so?? for example just graft onto new growth without topworking any part of my tree????
You can , but much of the time the existing canopy is going to outgrow that single graft if it isn’t cut back.
@@TropicalAcresFarmsis there a way or method for best results without cutting down my whole tree?
@@deshawnthompson5592the only thing you can do is put more grafts on in the hope that the original tree doesn’t outgrow them all, but you should at least prune some of its canopy back to give the new grafts a better chance
Why the loud music
Always appreciate the content Paul! But please dont paint your trees yall 😂 I’m pretty sure most of us grow our own food at our house to stay away from all the pesticides and bad things that they do to the produce at the stores. If you’re painting the tree with latex paint full of a shit load of synthetic stuff it’s probably worse than the fruit from the store…. Just my idea on it. You guys can take it however you want.
It’s plant based, not actual paint.
@@KHH595 not the paint they are talking about
