Great video. Camera closeups help this novice grower a lot. I recently took over my father's property, and I am using your instructional videos to maintain 4 trees. I now have 8 new mango trees in pots that are about a foot tall. Thnx again for the time & effort you put into these videos.
you all prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Maximilian Gage I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Wow thank you lady ! 😃 I been seen a ton of videos but none were convincing. With this one bye bye tip of my mango .. just love how se expressed herself 😄
Loved the video. New Mango grower here with 3 small trees that i will be planting soon. Your video explained very clearly on how to prune the young trees and different issues to look for when inspecting the trees for pruning. Thank you for this great video.
Hello, I'm from the southern Caribbean and I received a dwarf Julie mango tree recently. We have about 75 different varieties of mangoes here on the island and this is the first time I'm growing one myself. I was looking for a video on how to take care of them and prune them. Thank you for explaining it so thoroughly. You really explained it so well so I know how to go about trimming the branches without doing harm to the tree.
Hi Ma'am, v helpful pruning video , thank you , can you give an update of these plants after pruning..guess it's more than 2 years now ..I did exactly as u did, so eager to know those mango plant update, good day !!
You have got a lot of knowledge on mango trees. I have learned a lot from watching your Channel. I live on an Island Called Pohnpei which on the pacific side near the equator and our mango trees grow massive. I am talking over 100'. We have some great tasting mango but very hard to pick since they are so tall. The only way to pick them is to climb. It was easy for me when i was younger but now I am not able to do it so easily and I know it's going to get harder as the years go by. I am going to plant and graft some of the best once that I know of and try to train the trees young and see if I can get them to bear while they are still short. I have seen similar Mango here like some of the ones you have shown on your channel but not sure if they are the same. We have our own name for our Mango here but I have no Idea what they are in English. Some are great tasting when they are still green but not very sweat when they are ripe and some are very bitter when they are green but very very sweat when they are ripe. Well I just wanted to thank you for all the great and free knowledge. Thanks
Great video!! Very descriptive. Thank you soo much!! I'm in zone 9b in California. I have a grafted Glenn. I plan to prune next year, I feel like we're too late in the season to tip as temperatures start cooling down in fall.
Is it important to prune at an angle? (for mango or any trees) Is it important to prune at a specific direction to influence how a branch grows out? (for mango or any trees) Is it safe to prune during the heavy monsoon season? (mango or any trees) Getting to know these would be a start! Thank you! P.S. I like your T-shirt! Pete :")
My mango is growing in a v at the base. It has two branches growing from the root. Everyone’s I see has one trunk, should I cut one of the branches and if so, which one?
I have 4 year old mango plant which is 6 feet tall without branch. How can I prune it now. I was not aware of pruning. Will it harm if I cut it in mid?
Thank you for your video. I love to plant some mango & papaya trees after I am retired. Question: What is the perfect distance between two mango tress?
Hi Chris I recently got a mango tree that is very similar to one of your trees in the video. The problem i am facing is the tree has 3 branches that came out at the original tipping point. Since then it looks like only one if the branches is still alive and the living branch has grown and added new leaves. Now the tree looks very long with one branch pointing upward. I was wondering if you are able to share some advice on how to approach this. I thought 3 possible options however your knowledge in this area would be greatly appreciate. I thought i could either prune the tip to try and expand branches on the leftover branch, or air layer the tree a root the upper half, then cut below the dead branches with the hope of expanding branches, or just cut the mango below the 3 previous branches that were formed from the earlier tipping. I am very new to this and very open to any advice or knowledge you are willing to share. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge via all the awesome videos
I've made cuts in different places on the stem, and noticed that branching develops better if I make a cut closer to the node. I cut half way between nodes and got a bunch of branches or like a cluster though and wonder if I should leave or cut further. What would you recommend? Is a cluster okay or a nice smooth branch instead?
My mango sapling is over 5 feet tall and has not been pruned. Is it OK to prune it back to 3 feet? I'm in the Space Coast of Florida, can I prune in December, January?
I missed out on my Pickering fruiting this year ( 8- year old tree ) I believe powdery mildew got it before I caught it. I would like to use potassium nitrate to stimulate flower production and try for a late season crop. I only have one tree and we love the Pickering mango. What are the thoughts on spraying now in early May? Thanks Ron
Great examples especially tree #2. Dry detailed on how to determine where u want a branch to grow. I’ve since cut all my trees below the growth rings, tipped others and cleared the centers of branches that were crossing. It hurt but it made since after this video. Now my question. Should I now 1) feed to promote growth and 2) no additional pruning til next year!
Now is a good time to supply your trees with nutrients. Giving them nitrogen would depend on how much you would like your trees to grow. Re Trimming... You can prune in August and sometimes September. We tried to cut all or our trees before Hurricane Irma last year (Sept), and most of our trees fruited well this season.
When would you stop pruning. I recently took on the care of a young mango tree bout a year after uprooting it from a neighbor who no longer wanted it. No fruits have produced as of yet. Been giving lots of water and minimal pruning. New leaves have started to grow up. I wonder if i should be feeding it more fertilizer or any other natural substances for better growth during these hot Florida times.
I have a small grafted mango it's mybe one year old there are some flowers are on my small mango and the leave are getting yelled from the corner I'm thinking to prune it or remove the flowers only ?
Hi, I am from middle Europe, and trying to grow seeds from shop bought mangoes, maybe from Brazil, monoembryonic ones, in a greenhouse, in winter inside of the house. My seeds are not growing much in the full sun in June after germination outside in my greenhouse(not heated), in the shade better. Inside in front of the window is the best, just from spring till September. I get end of May outside 10-13 degrees in Celsius at night, maybe it is too cold daily max. is 25-27 degrees Celsius, what is about 40 C at noon in the greenhouse. In the house constantly 20- 24 degrees Celsius, and they grow in summer every month 1 section(15-20 cm) rapidly.I mean house and inside, where i live so no greenhouse, just in front of the window, no humidity. Of course the bigger plants can handle 40 degrees Celsius in my greenhouse and they grow a couple of sections, but slower than inside..I sprinkle the leaves with water every day. Can you give an explanation for monoembryonic and polyembryonic seeds, and the difference? As far i know a polyembryonic seed has multiple shoots,one of them perhaps the smallest is not true to type, the others are clones of the mother tree. So a monoembryonic seed, with one shoot, has not the genetics of the mother plant, then what? It will flower much later..why? And it won't be so tasty? I am a bit confused:) Can i get good fruits from a mono-seed? My oldest mono-tree is about 4,5 years old and maybe 1/3 the size of yours in Florida:) Any asian varieties growing better in my region with not much humidity, of course in containers? I have 4 seasons :) Thanks, Adam
Wow! It sounds like you LOVE mangos! Soon we will do a video on Mono- and Poly-embryonic seeds, which will probably answer all your questions (and more) Good Luck with your project!
Truly Tropical thank you for the mono-poly explanation, this year i am lucky, cause i got beginning August a 3 years old Keitt tree as i was on vacation just under Naples in Italy.There were two fruits on it,one is gone while transporting. The other has changed colour into red, but has grown just 15% in the last 4 weeks. It has a weight about a pound now. Maybe till middle October i can leave it in my greenhouse, then the night temperature goes about 40 Fahrenheit and the leaves start to brown...:( i hope it will ripen..:) Do you have the following mango types: Kensington Pride,R2E2(huge), Nam Doc Mai? I tasted these above, and Keitt,Kent,Palmer... as European, and for some reason my favorite became KP, for its size and strong flavour. Have you tried Gomera-3 mango tree as rootstock? Thanks Adam
Do you have a video explaining pruning a a young mango that's flowering but you do not want it to fruit because it's still too young? I have heard mix thing and don't know what to do... I have a grafted Nam Doc Mai that's only 2ft tall, but it's now flowering... thank you
If it's still only 2 feet tall last thing you want is for it to produce fruit lol, you might get 1 mango if you're lucky but the rest will simply fall off because they can't be supported. And frankly it's just not worth it, you want the tree to grow well in it's early stages, not only so that it can produce more fruits in the coming years, but also... You know... So that you can have a stronger and better tree. I don't know where you live for your sapling mango to get flowers, but if you're that thirsty for a mango go to a shop and buy one
You said," Every tree every year" . Does this mean we prune 1st year seedlings too ? If so, I would love to see the example. Thank you for your time. Nice video.
I have newly grafted mango after two new shoot grew about 8 inches then the rest of the buds starting to push out little bit then it start to falls off. Do you know what's wrong?
Thank you Chris, very helpful.
Thank you for pruning technique coming from the Philippines.

Thanks Truly Tropical! Very informative..
is it recommendable to make these cuts to young trees that still don't produce fruits, during spring or summer?
USEFUL TIPS 👍
Thanks a lot. I learned a great deal from you .
Hi there, excellent explanations... do you have a video for larger mature mangoes.
I like more of that
effective

I would cut back to healthy wood

Hi what I can spray after pruning for not get disease on the cut area is copper fungicide ok?
When is the right size of the plant and time of the year to move mango plant from the pot to the ground?
At what year root circling starts in polythene bag or container of grafted tree.
Which month is perfect for pruning mango tree thanks

Any advice? My tree is dying,its still very small. Great video!
Are those bolt cutters?
Is there any thing I should put on the the cut area after pruning?

I want to keep my potted mango and guava trees small (3 and 7 gallons). When and how should I cut the trunk?
Can you root the pruned branches?
Is it possible that I can do pruning for an eight years old mango tree
Absolutely! You can prune any aged mango tree. We prune all our mango trees every year.

What time is good for trimming mango tree? I live in Southern Caly. Thanks!
Which month in the year is suitable for this prunig ?,all trees does pruning?
What happens when the tree has blossoms and yet new leaves are also coming out?
I must have pruned above a growth ring because it grew eight or nine branches. Should I cut some new branches and how many branches should i leave?
I think 3 or 4 is ideal. Maybe someone else can answer.
Do you have a video explaining pruning a a young mango that's flowering but you do not want it to fruit because it's still too young? I have heard mix thing and don't know what to do... I have a grafted Nam Doc Mai that's only 2ft tall, but it's now flowering... thank you

Did you end up cutting it off? I’m in a similar situation, I have the same mango type, also 2 years old and it started flowering.
@@tinanguyen2418 yes, cut about 75% of the flower off and it drop the rest by itself.
Thank you for your tips I have some young trees mangoes, can you help me to prune them?
I have an Alphonso ten years old but not flowering you have any solution I hope your valuable information from India
Can I prune Kent mango tree to keep it small
You said," Every tree every year" . Does this mean we prune 1st year seedlings too ? If so, I would love to see the example. Thank you for your time. Nice video.
Yes... I try to encourage branching and healthy growth. Unfortunately I never get to every plant, but it's something to shoot for...
Have you already made a video about the very 1st pruning of seedlings, and how/when it should be done ?
I have not made a video on early pruning. There many different philosophies on how often young mango trees should be pruned...
Then I'll wait. Thank You in advance for your help :) .
Truly Tropical I feel that when it's 1,2,3 years old then I feel like it's not right
Sounds like Sidney Powell.
Are you transjender ?
I have newly grafted mango after two new shoot grew about 8 inches then the rest of the buds starting to push out little bit then it start to falls off. Do you know what's wrong?
Is it still in a pot? Sometimes a change in watering can cause that type of problem
yes I just repotted. Do you know how to fix that problem?
just try to water only when it needs it.... sometimes easier said than done
Was I water too much?
That's my guess
How much do you sell your trees for?
regular 3-gallon grafted mango trees are $35 each.
Truly Tropical wow I thought it would be like 3x times more expensive than that
I have an Alphonso ten years old but not flowering you have any solution I hope your valuable information from India
