I like to eat mango, but too expensive , buy one at a time. I like to plant many tropical trees.Nice. Thank you so much!!
Happy to help!
@@AustinTexasGardening how is it now
Really? I pay $.50 per mango where I'm at
I live in Florida. I planted a 3 foot mango tree I bought at Home Depot about 10 years ago, It is huge at about 40-50 feet. To plant mango seeds all you have to do is take the seed even if it still has some mango fruit stuck to it and place that in a flower pot and cover it with soil. In just a week you will have a mango tree sapling extruding from the soil. Typically I will plant 6 seeds side by side and when they sprout you can separate them and move them to their own pots. Expect 5 years to get a fruit bearing tree. Scissors are not needed.
Florida is a great state, I dont think I could pull that off here, but im glad it worked out for you!
I love ❤️ mangoes 🥭 but they are not ripe enough
@@AustinTexasGardeningqqqqqqq 😂 you
Oh my gosh On my way!
Can you do this inside??
I love the time lapse! This video is super helpful for anyone curious of how to grow a mango tree from seed. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
What size pot is that
@@cecenails9713fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 never ends for disbelievers
@@AustinTexasGardeningdon't die as a disbeliever
India don't burn dead body not allowed
Add cinnamon to your paper towel so it doesn't mold... Cinnamon is an antifungal component when germinating
That’s great advice I think I’ll try that next time
I also use cinnamon when germinating mango seeds. It seems to speed up the germination because mine have roots and are ready to plant usually within 10 days. I live in Thailand and it's cheaper to buy mangos at the markets but it's fun to grow my own too. The garden shop here also sells mango trees already 5-6 months old for 200 baht (less than $6 USD).
Thank you?
Thank you I just started my mango 😍 happy growing to all❤
Very cool! Good luck with it!
I got three mangoes that are growing here in Ireland 🇮🇪 😊
Awesome
"When my mango was about this size, it had a tap root growing out the hole of the pot. It dried up between waterings and eventually killed the plant. I should have transplanted. Nice video!
I ran into a similar issue Ken, I think mine just died because of both that, and the cold and lack of light
Can we have a 1 year old update?
wish I could, but my poor mango passed away during the winter, next time I grow a mango sapling ill use a grow light to keep it alive
@Austin Texas Gardening did it die because grow indoors in the winter?. Mine is about the same height growing in a 5 gal pot and stored in green house.
Highly appriciates thank u
🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Youre welcome!
Just started 3 seeds today! Thanks for the quick tutorial.
Awesome! How did they do?
Please provide an update
Please David, let us know
Ohhh wow you in Austin Texas that’s pretty cool I was living there for a year now I’m in San Antonio. I actually have 8 or 9 mango trees growing right now .
Nice, I bet they do great there, its crazy the difference just a hundred miles makes as far as winter temps are concerned
@@AustinTexasGardening Yeahh for sure .i am concerning about the winter too hopefully it won’t be as bad and my mangoes are also from Haiti 🇭🇹 so I definitely don’t want to lose them .
Funny you post this, I’m also from San Antonio about to plant my germinated mango seed today 😂
I planted my last mango seed and I hope it grows 😅and I live in Canada in Saskatoon
Just started mine. I’m using 6.0ph water to clean before placing into my coconut coir mix.
Very cool, has it sprouted yet?
What type of soil do you use to transition the seed in? Is all purpose potting soil good or a regular potting mix?
OH MY GOD YOU STARTED GERMINATING AT 27TH JULY 2 YEAR AGO AND IM WATCHING YOUR VIDEO TO GERMINATE THE SEED TODAY, THE 27TH JULY OF THIS YEAR WHAT A COINCIDENCE!
Its a small world haha!
I would like to see the video (or next video) carry it through to the point of bearing fruit.
This either means, grafting from another "desireable" mango onto this sapling, or explaining the process of growing it for 15 years or more before it bears fruit.
And of course, when you grow a mango tree from a seed like this, you have no idea what type of mango you will get, (when it finally does fruit). Most likely a Kensington or Turpentine. Both of which will taste a lot like turpentine if you do not grant onto it.
Grafting is the next step, which should be done, if you are looking for a fruit tree with good tasting fruit.
Indeed - I think I might try a mango tree in a greenhouse in the future, they just cant survive the winters we get in texas
I just saw another video of a lady who grew a mango in her backyard/in a pot and is bearing fruit.
I didn't remove the pulp on the side I cut a small hole & put the scissor in the hole & cut ❤
I don’t know what am doing wrong but when my mango tree gets up to this size 0:01 it’s leaves go brown and then dies off ???
Which soil you use???
Very interesting, but I planted a philippine (carabao) mango seed into a 3 gallon pot. I didn't do any of the extra work in this video and the plant came up within 2 to 3 weeks. It's a good idea to keep it in the shade until the plant has good strong leaves.
Well done! The trick for my area is keeping these plants well-sunned and warm in the winter, I'd bet you are in a more equatorial or coastal area
I’m confused, if you can’t grow mangos outside then do you plan to keep the trees inside? Don’t they grow to be really tall?
Pretty kool enjoyed now my doesn’t know but we are going to eat mango soon and we will try to grow one this summer ty
Very cool, good luck with yours!
Am from the caribbean i grew up with mango trees avocado trees it only takes warm climate though
My mother was from Jamaica, as a kid she'd grow scotch bonnets, mango, and avocado here in Texas, it was always a battle because we have cold weather here
Im in Michigan and just started a couple mango seeds! Obviously theyll be indoors as we get super cold here. Will be fun to see if i can make it work!@AustinTexasGardening
What do you do in winter to protect plant . Please share the procedure
Unfortunately, this plant died in the winter, even under grow lamps in my garage, I would recommend trying to grow mangoes in Florida, not Texas
Hi. What if the mango tree grows straight up without branching out? It's like a bean pole!!! Help! 😂
How is the tree doing now? That tree is very healthy looking! I also live here in Texas
It died during the winter storm when we lost power :( next year I’ll have a grow light with a gas generator for the new mango I’m growing!
@@AustinTexasGardening aww man.. sorry to hear. That winter storm was horrible hopefully it doesn’t happen again
So let me get this straight: the seeds need 3 weeks preparation, the sapling needs a lot of light and warmth and you need to be careful that the pot isn't too small. At what age would you think that the tree could survive cold weather? I'm in Germany if that helps.
Unfortunately the trees cant really ever stand cold weather, I take my tropical plants into the garage under a grow lamp during the cold season. However, during Texas' 2021 historic winter storm, we had so many power outages that my mango tree died
@@AustinTexasGardening that's horrible! But I'll try anyway. Good luck with your future trees!
@@AustinTexasGardening I reckon you can thank Ted Cruz for that
Moin, da du meintest, dass du aus Deutschland bist, dachte ich dass ich mal auf deutsch antworte. Wenn du mich persönlich fragst, ist der Aufwand mit der Mango gar nicht so groß. Ich habe den Kern immer direkt gewaschen, wie er im Video, dann den Kern vorsichtig aufgeschnitten und diesen in Erde gelegt, mit Erde bedeckt und diese dann befeuchtet. Wichtig ist dabei nur, dass du den Kern viel Sonne aussetzt und das ganze einer hohen Luftfeuchtigkeit aussetzt. Habe meinen ersten Kern in einer Anzuchtbox angepflanzt, diese im Januar/Februar auf eine Heilmittel gelegt und auf eine Fensterbank mit südrichtung gestellt. Als die Pflanze größer wurde, habe ich sie natürlich umgetopft. Gegen Mai habe ich den Pflanztopf ins gewächszelt gebracht und dort steht mein Mangobäumchen bis jetzt noch. Ich habe es im Anschluss mit 2 weiten Mangokernen versucht, welche ich direkt in Erde gelegt und ins gewächszelt gestellt habe. Auch diese beiden Kerne sind ohne Probleme gekeimt. Werde die Pflanzen in der Küche überwintern. Wichtig ist dabei die Pflanze dabei immer mit Wasser zu besprühen, was nicht nur eine hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit simuliert, sondern auch Krankheiten und Parasiten abhält. Solltest du weitere Fragen haben, sag einfach Bescheid.
If you need the text in English, that just say that as an answer 😊
@@tomasschwabe6624 Moin zurück und danke für die Hinweise. Ich habe jetzt schon ein Bäumchen, ca. 30 cm groß, das auf dem Fensterbrett in Südrichtung steht. Es kommt auch mit erstaunlich wenig Wasser klar 😅
Dir noch viel Glück mit deinen Mangos
I’m in NC
I started growing my mango in June
It’s August now
It looks fine
Just wondering when will it start lookin like a tree
Well, full transparency - the mango in this video died a few moths after filming, we had an usually cold winter storm with power outages in feb 2021, and only mature trees and a few house plants made it out alive. I'm planning on growing another mango tree soon, so you've got a head start on me! I'd bet your mango tree gets to about 3-4 feet over 2 years (thats how long my avocado tree has taken)
Explain where the roots are coming out of the seed from here it looks like it's coming from the top
How often do you water? And how wet do you keep the soil? After my plants first leaves it stopped growing. How long until it starts growing more leaves?
I watered something like 8oz every 5 days, the biggest help was moving the plant to a larger pot once it started growing leaves
When do you transfer the plant to the ground outside?
If youre in zone 10 or better (costal close to the equator ect) anytime is good, in fact, you could probably put the seed right in the ground. For anywhere zone 9 and up, the mango sapling will have to be in a container permanently, as it cannot withstand freezing or near freezing temperatures
Hi, based on your experience how tall do these get for maturity? Also can they bear fruit indoors? I also live in south Texas, closer to the Rio Grande Valley.
Based on my experience, my mango sapling died during the winter storm in feb 2021, these trees require lots of light and sun and wont do well under a grow lamp in the winter. In the rio grande valley, you might be able to get them to grow in ground. Whats the lowest low, does it freeze where you live? If not, give it a shot!
Hey do I have to keep watering the tissue paper after rapping the seed
If its in a plastic bag, the moisture will be trapped
Did you lower the PH of the water or amend the soil?
I did not, this mango tree died during 2021’s winter power outage, im gonna have to try again!
I just use my fingers and rip it open when its fresh out of the fruit it tends to open 7/10 times.
do you still have them in pot? if so, do they fruit?
This plant died in the big winter storm 3 years ago. Ideally, yes, it would need to be transplanted to a larger container
Do you need another mango tree to cross pollinate?
Mangoes are self pollinating, but if you live near me, I’d recommend staring peaches, which are also self pollinating.
What brand or type of top soil do you recommend
cant go wrong with a miracle grow blend for containers with perlite, peat moss, and a little fertilizer
How do you keep the tree in the winter?
I didn’t haha it’s dead, but you might be able to keep yours alive with a high strength grow lamp
Do I have to water it everyday after I plant the seed
Not everyday, I'd say 4-6oz of water once or twice a week while inside, and then when its outside, stick your finger about an inch or two deep in the soil, if its dry, its time to water
I am starting a mango tree from seed now!😃 do you still have yours?
I think I mentioned in another comment that our mango died last winter :( I highly recommend a grow light during the short and cold winter days
Is that a potting soil or seedling mix?
If I recall it was just potting soil
Just throw that seed under the soil and it will still grow
That’s true, I’d add that the best place to throw these mango seeds is in coastal areas, preferably Florida. I wasn’t able to keep this tree alive through our Texas winters
let him do whatever he wants
It will consume so much time
Not necessarily i put like 8 of them out like that and only 1 popped you got to wrap it in paper add a lil cinnamon and water and a plastic back 3-7 it should start to come to a root then you can plant but you have to keep it out the sun it can’t take full sun till after about 2 ft mines fall out all the time and I have to revive it in shade
They grow up mangoes here in California heat won't do nothing to them
Questions why my mango die is keep the leaf falling apart 😢
There could be many reasons your mango sprout died, not enough sun, too much sun, it needs tropical conditions
3:54 my birthday
Will it still work with a thin seed?
I dont see why not
How often do i need to water my mango plant
I watered about 4 oz a week in the small pot, and 16 oz a week in the larger pot
@@AustinTexasGardening thx
I need help what if i cut this tail this on top 1:25
Depends on how you cut it, if you cut it in half, just plant it, water it regularly, etc, and it will grow back. If you cut all of it off, you can still try to grow it, but you’ll probably need to just start over
Dam i cut i all i will must buy new mango
Which soil l can use?
It doesn’t really matter, I would say anything but the cheap hardware store soil for $5 a bag, get the $15 bag
How do you let it to survive after 1, 2 or 5 years?
Move it to Florida or Hawaii
@@AustinTexasGardening 😂
What is the soil composite?
Just the cheap stuff, its 50% "Enriched Top Soil" ('recycled forest products' + 'enriched soil') aka the cheap blue and brown bag at home depot, and 50% Miracle Grow potting soil - www.homedepot.com/p/Miracle-Gro-25-qt-Performance-Organics-Potting-Soil-Mix-45626300/306735614
The Miracle Grow has Yucca for water absorption, rice hulls for structure, perlite so the roots can spread out, compost, and peat moss for nutrients.
To be honest, i'm pretty sure you can get away with almost any type of soil, I saw a video where someone had a mango sapling spout in their backyard compost pile!
Thanks for asking!
@@AustinTexasGardening Thank God. I won’t have to run all over town looking for expensive fert. Tq U.
My mango plant looks like yours at 3:56
Glad yours is coming along well!
How many times do you water it everyday
I watered it 2-3oz every two or three days if memory serves
How long before mango trees bear fruit
for this one - 7 to 10 years
In what season can I plant?
Any season, but I would recommend planting in march
@@AustinTexasGardening ok
Has this mango survived and has it or when will it begin to fruit? Name of mango? I've bought a few mangoes in my local 99cent store ate them and just planted them last night. Not sure of the name "mexican Mango" almost round.
Nah, it died in the 2021 winter storm (power failed in my garage)
@@AustinTexasGardening Thanks, I assume mango tree need to be kept on pot and brought in during winter or protect for the next 2-3 years. Also looks like I wont be getting the same mango that I ate from the seeds
@@AustinTexasGardening Wow youv'e had to say it died like 10 times can't people read. IT DIED ALREADY.😂😂
How often do you water it
I watered a few ounces two or three times a week while it was inside, and once outside, just a good watering once a week
@@AustinTexasGardening thank you so much. Mine is in soil already and by the window! 👍🏻
I have a totally different mango it does not grow like that or look like that but it a different mango so idk
yeah I have no idea what kind of mango this is either, I just regrew from store bought
In 10 years you'll get mangos
Is it still growing?
It died three years ago during our big winter storm in Texas, even in the garage, it couldn’t handle the cold and needed bigger grow lamps, I wouldn’t try growing a mango tree unless you’re at least in zone 10
I’ve been planting my mangoes sideways. Lol
Haha good luck with the next one!
Y?
Just put it in soil....
Yes this works too haha, but makes a less interesting video. Also cant be done in the winter
Do plastic wrap not paper towel
I did the paper towel because it seemed to trap moisture just as well, whats the benefit of plastic wrap?
🗿
mango needs a lot of sunlight. please put it in sun.
Not all of them mines faints in the sun cause in fl the sun is harsh
There is just a BLACK SCREEN WHST YALL TALKING BOUT?????????
Sometimes UA-cam glitches like that, or an ad blocker might be the issue
No offense, but your wife needs to learn to get the flesh out of mangoes. She's leaving a lot of the fruit on the skin.
