Like most things in life the more we work on it the better we get. In this video I show my progress and what I've learned when it comes to training mango trees.
Dude, to stop the string cutting into the branch I can recommend using a 2 inch off cut of garden hose sliced down one side and placed around the limb. I use that extensively here and it often even holds up through the typhoons ( hurricanes) we get here every year. Thanks for the video.
Hi🙋its been a while. Great video. I love watching your mango trees. I love mangos. These trees look amazing. Oh am going live to celebrate Garden Love's Birthday day. 🤗🤗🤗 at 5pm cali time
I like the bending and weighted down training. Here in norcal,growth is so much slower,pruning for that is almost impossible. I never thought too tall would ever be a problem..but it is about 14' and in another 3 or 4 years might be beyond even a ladder picking. Spread out could work!
this is the only video I have been able to find where the mango tree branches are tied down or weighted down instead of pruned. Do you have any update on the trees a year later? I started bringing my branches down with water bottles and I am curious to see how they might turn out a couple years from now.
Since the time I made that video I have made a few changes. One of the changes I made was to remove the middle tree. There used to be 3 meters between trees Now it's a little more than 5 meters.
You can start when those pencil thick branches have hardened off. Usually when they are about 8 to 10 inches long. The height of the tree and where you start training the canopy is up to you. You can start when the tree is 3 feet tall or whatever you think is best.
@@franciscoportodo6698 greetings, whenever you prune a tree it will try and regrow. Mango trees are very vigorous and usually will put out several new shoots from where you just pruned. Usually within 2 to 3 weeks. Then, it's all about selecting which ones you want to be your new branches. Three is usually a good number. I hope this answers your questions. If you have any more questions feel free to contact me
@@ingarrajoey I know about the tree being vigorous as it grows. Aswell as what pruning does to plants/trees. I was referring to making the main stem produce the chutes. As i tried cutting/topping main stems mango plants that are 2'-4' in height. It doesn't work like when you do it to a pepper plant or cannabis plant where it shoots branches from the leaf sets. I would like to make plants have multiple main branches starting at 2'-4' im height. Then i can start off from there and prune as it grows into a bushy canopy.

I do this with all my trees, fruit and nut. It is a form of espalier. I use little pieces of those foam tubes you use in the swimming pool.
I like the way you work on your mango ...I will do mine

I like it,thanks again.
Very nice 👍
Thanks! I'm going to try that with my young fruit punch, the limbs are the width of a pencil now so easily trainable.

Make a video of how often you fertilize your mango trees and what kind of fertilizer?
I will do that soon👍
Excellent Sir Excellent

Their is a split in the center of the main stem on the first tree, do you think it will survive?
Heck yea im doing the same with my mango trees!

@@ingarrajoey thanks
@@ingarrajoey thanks
I wasn’t aware we could get Alphonsos in the US.
Are you in Florida?
Yes I am👍
no fruits yet?
How long do you keep the strings on the branch of the mango tree
Not long at all, Maybe a few weeks. I wouldn't recommend it if one wasn't watching the trees regularly
@@ingarrajoey i keep an eye on my mango trees everyday
What part of the world do you live in? These trees are in?
Florida USA
Sir , i am from india
I want information about high density mango plantation .
Can you give me ?
is that guandules along the fence?
Sure is!👍
how old does your mango tree have to be to start limb bending
You can start when those pencil thick branches have hardened off. Usually when they are about 8 to 10 inches long. The height of the tree and where you start training the canopy is up to you. You can start when the tree is 3 feet tall or whatever you think is best.
After cutting the mango tree in the middle, should I keep it in shade or full sun ?
I don't believe it's necessary.
What's the terminal height you're going for?
Right around 7 feet
What is that white color you paint on mango tree ?
Agribuzz it's a white wash made by IV organics
It might not available to buy in my country .
Agribuzz which country are you in?
My Tropical Obsession what is this white wash used for?

@@ingarrajoey how often do you experience frost in winter?
@@tty3146 not too many times during the winter. Probably 4 or 5 at the most.
@@ingarrajoey Do you cover up your trees?
@@tty3146 when they're young? Yes as they get older, More than 10 years no?
are those grafted or seedlings?
They're all grafted
@@ingarrajoey how'd you make it shoot multilple banches from the main stalk? Please explain. Thank you sir.
