- Some mango varieties are more productive than others. Let's take a look at some of our mango trees to see how much fruit they created, how much they're holding and how much is dropped.

"Be careful of that .." get the feeling one has to tread on eggshells with this guy !
I'm missing the reference.
💯
Those dropped baby mangoes make one the tastiest pickles I've ever tasted. I absolutely love them.
ooooh, that's a good idea
You're the second person to say this to me in as many days. I might have to try it.
Thanks for sharing Tom, Noe,and Tommy.🙏😎🏖🏝
I will tell them you said thanks.
Man I'm so envious of your farm looks like a beautiful place to live
And I love growing my own food
And great video keep up the good work man
thank you PSway, going by your pic you are still very young. It took me 25 years to save up to get this place...you can do it a lot faster if you don't make the dumb mistakes I did 😝
Just ordered a mango box. Born and raised in Florida, moved to Colorado a few years ago. Man, I miss the fruit so much I’ve been thinking about moving back just for it. So hyped to get a little taste of home come June. Thanks for what you do
Spencer, yeah fresh mangos here in florida are a totally different experience that what they sell in the grocery store. Thank you for the order, I saw it come across and I appreciate your business.
I miss getting fresh picked grapefruit in Texas :( Currently living in Wisconsin :( :( :(
Your doing a good job in raising Tommy!😊 Bill
😍
I had a Thai green mango chilli salad once... it was amazing and i still remember it 20 years later. Yuuuum ❤
sounds delicious!
I love picking green mangoes and eat them with sea salt. Taking a bite, dip it in salt and eat it… is awesome.
I've heard about that and people seem to love it. I need to try it.
Most excellent information, tree knowledge is great knowledge
We are all one tree 🙂
thanks Hillbilly
My wife is from Colombia and the mango trees are huge there. I have seen trees with literally hundreds of mangoes on the ground beneath them. You simply cannot eat them all LOL. I can't wait to retire there and grow mango, papaya, avocados and more. Love your channel. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada 🍁
Thank you Gio, I've been to Colombia one time and it's a beautiful place. and from what I'm told it's only gotten better since I been there 25 years ago. you are going to love your tropical garden.
@@SleepyLizard Yes...and I'm learning SO much from your channel.
I have a huge Mango tree. (30yrs old /8mtr long/14to16 wide. Sometimes it gives minimal fruits, some season no fruit only flowers. Help!🎉
thanks for sharing the good info.
you are welcome Tbonz
Great teaching!
thank you Lisette
Amazing man. Respect
thank you Mehdi. 💪
Lol...the knife!
😇
I don't wanna offend but I f***ing love mango. I've gotten a personal formulation based on coloring and feel for store bought I stand by and will not deviate. If I wasn't living in bum-hole Wisconsin I'd have a few of these growing :D
I'm getting sad that the season is winding down
I don't even own a mango tree, nor leave in a climate for mangoes. Why did I watch this full video!?
I appreciate the support
To learn about the panicle
I'm going to plant a mango tree at my place in Miami, thanks for the video!!
Excellent idea and one you won't regret! I'm publishing a vid today at 10am that reviews some of the choices you have when planting a mango.
@@SleepyLizard here is what I’m thinking, mangos, oranges, avocados, limes, kumquats. I planted clusia around the entire perimeter of my front yard so it’s totally private, and I want to turn my front yard into an orchard some kind
@@WalksWallStreet excellent choices and if I may make a recommendation: over time you might consider mixing some monstera delicisousa in with your Clusia...you'll get privacy coverage and also a very tasty fruit.
My neighbor near Captain Cook has a young, beautiful mango tree at 1600 feet. He grew a single, small but delicious mango. Cheers!
Is that in Hawaii?
@@SleepyLizard Yes near Amy Greenwell Garden. We’ve been watching for years because they are not suppose to fruit at 1600. The tree is only 8 feet tall and a single mango but still good!
@@als2217 fantastic. I hear you guys have some really good avocado varieties in Hawaii also.
@@SleepyLizard I thought you were in Hawaii??!! Why did I think that. You tube is funny. Thought you were just down the road, I blame my wife.
@@als2217 hilarious! Nah I'm in South Florida but I did the Ironman in Knona back in 2005 and I went snorkeling the day before to relax and se were went to a place that had a monument to Caption Cook which is why I asked if you were in Hawaii. 🤣
do you spray your mangos at all?
yes, we use manzate during flowering and copper after they fruit. every other week.
Hallo Tom... how long should a mango hang on the tree before picking.i got some on hanging 5months now,, it's keitt so it stays green i think..my first time growing mango..the fruit looks big but its hard as a rock.. i think its a bit more than 5month on the tree..should i pick it.
Renaldo, Keitt are considered late season and here in South Florida we pick them in august and September. not sure if that's the same where you live. another thing you can do is squeeze them and when they start to feel soft you can pick and let them soften the rest of the way on your kitchen counter.
When ripe it can be as much as 15-20 ripe mangoes...when unripe u can have 40-50 mangoes on the tree.
how big are your trees?
I got to ask you a Qustion i have a Avacado Tree and i am in iceland well its cold Here but i can grow Avacados Inside but my tree is not Growing Tall It gets Leaves and I do Prune it about 2 Months Apart Should i Prune it less and Also It Uselly dies I belive The Reson is It Gets no Sun During The Winter can i USe some Kind of a Light For it Thats all i love your Videos man
thanks for the compliment. I don't know anything about indoor growing and lights and stuff but I say go for it and see what you learn.
Tom, I know this is off topic but when should you plant an avocado seed after you eat an avocado and wash the seed off? I've saved about 15 up since about January and all I did was washed them off and put them in a container. I planted them but they looked really dry, in fact the outer skin was flaking off. Any advice would be appreciated brother
yeah if they been in a container for 90 days they probably dried out. I plant mine right away
Great video Tom, when would you say the mangos are best for the picking “which month” ??
Hi MEH, some varieties we start in May and others we wait until September but most of the varieties harvest in June and July. it's like a trickle in May then by mid August it's tapered off except for the handful of "late" varieties. My Keitt and Ford are late which it's nice to have fruit into September when everything else is picked clean.
@@SleepyLizard thanks great to know ;)
Just found your channel. I also ordered a mango box. I miss Florida just for the fruits. Have you thought about grafting some mango trees to sell
Hi Petrona, I saw your order come in. Thank you for you business. I used to sell trees but then we had a house fire and I had to scale back my business a bit...it was a whole thing. it's all behind us now.
Awesome video , very informative. Question- how often should I water mango in a large pot 140 gal, new leaves seem to be very light, almost yellow and very small with some brown spots. Also new buds have stopped pushing out! Is to much water the culprit?
the pot is large but I need to know how old the mango is. If it's mature then it won't need much water but if it's in its first 3-4 years it'll need more water.. as for new buds you gotta wait and see what happens over the next 90 days as we enter dormant period
Tree was purchased from Al’s fruit trees in homestead fl. , it was a 25 gallon orange sherbet. I’m in key west, and hasn’t rained much and I’ve been watering about every 3 days, I think I may have made the pot to wet. It’s almost to the point of stunted growth and very light green/ yellow foliage. Thank you for the response.
2015 I got hundreds. 2016 got a ton. 2017, not even one. 2018, following hurricane Irma (which hit September 2017), back to hundreds each year.
No idea what was going on with the tree in 2017. But I’m happy they are back. They taste like ice cream. Low fiber, thick flesh. So yummy
I've tried your mangos and they are delicious
Kind of farm I want in my life haha. Quick question, can i get fruit from potted avocado trees? I live in the northeast and trying to grow my own if possible. I found cuttings online to graft but don't want to go through the process if i cant fruit.
Hi Ben, Yes. Avocados will fruit in a pot. I get fruit on potted trees all the time. Here's a vid about it: ua-cam.com/video/Tt9FhGKsbbs/v-deo.html
Thanks for the info 💚💛❤️✅
my pleasure 🥭
What type of mangoes will you have available in June if you pre order. Do you send all the same kind or different kand nights
Hi Timmy, It's up to the mangos, if more than one variety is ready I give my customers a sampling and I label them. They types are: Tommy, Edward, Glen, nam duk mai, Haden, Valencia Pride, Carrie, Kent, and a bunch more.
Hey Tom I picked some Valencia pride mangos that have good size and some slight red to them but I assumed I may have picked too early being that they are rock hard after having them in a paper bag for 2 days at the time of this message.. is there hope for them it’s my first year picking mangos off of the tree. They have very good size but what happens if in fact I did pick to early thx as always
Hi MEH, yeah it's too early but keep them on the counter and hopefully they'll soften so you can eat them but they won't be nearly as sweet as if you pick them a month from now.
Quick question. Can i twist two mango plants together that way as they grown older and stiffer stems thier twisted together? Just curious. I think it would look cool. Lol
Jaded, you can try it and see what happens. I think you're right that it would look cool but two twisted stems are going to steal the nutrients from each other and each will only be half the size as if you allowed one stem to thicken naturally so I don't think you'll wind up with a stiffer stem.
@@SleepyLizard Alright 👍I'll plant them separately instead and try the trist method with maybe a flowering plant instead of a fruit plant. Thanks for the information!
Great information buddy 😊😊👍🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭🥭
💪💪🥭🥭🥭
can you grow mango tree in container?
yes, in fact I have some vids on the topic on my channel
Hello everyone on UA-cam. I'm not an expert. I would like to know if we could do a polyembrionic tissue culture in the laboratory to produce a superior mango variety ? Thank you from Philippines
I'll leave that to the experts.
My pear tree sheds off pears and is almost ready to harvest, I live in zone 4, Minnesota, USA. Today is August 11
yum, sounds delicious.
Why not thin out the fruit early. I do this with my citrus, remove undesirable fruit. The remaining fruit grows larger and sweeter. The tree is able to divert energy to the remaining fruit.
the trees drop fruit themselves. they know how much fruit to hold
You can enduce flowering on mangoes. My mistake a few years ago is not removing fruits. My old mango tree literally broke in half at the middle due to the weight of the fruits. Remove too much fruits, remaining mangoes will also get bigger and sweeter that way.
How do you induce flowering?
We use potassium nitrate
We add at least 6 tablespoon potassium nitrate to 1 gallon of water then spray to the leaves and branches. Usually used it for offseason though when i want my mango trees to bear fruits at least twice a year. I think some people have guides how to use it in youtube as well.
My Nam Doc Mai sometimes has 5 mangoes per panicle. When 2 or 3 panicles are next to each other it looks thick as a stalk of bananas. Crazy.
must be beautiful. I was just showing somebody how my nam doc mail flowered a week ago in august...did same last year. anyhow I said: it flowers several times per year but I never got a mango from it. She goes: there's one right there. nice surprise. first fruit from the tree.
This was the first year that my Nam Doc Mai trees produced fruit to harvest. Last year I lost all due to drought. I had to force mine to bloom but it worked great. By far my favorite mango. Check out my videos if you like to see how I did it.
Why dont make mango atchar??
what is that?
Love your round nose vw van.
my other passion
sad news my bananas look a little droopy in the greenhouse outdoors its been cold lately
nooooo!
@@SleepyLizard even that electric heater isn't enough to keep the greenhouse warm
@@frostylonewolf1700 😢
what should i do? i don't want to keep my blue java anymore not like i will get fruit on it it fruits between 15 to 20 feet
Grooming Tommy, great!!
Yep. He’s gonna take over some day
There is something wrong with that child !!!
what do you think it might be?
@@SleepyLizard A LEVEL OF Autism
🤣
Where do they grow?
Hi Joseph, mangos grow in USDA hardiness zone 9b and above. You can google the USDA hardiness zone for your zip code to learn what you can grow in your backyard
