I bought one of those mango trees from you, it’s in Fremont and is doing VERY happy. I did have to spray with copper to stop the nasty fungus from taking over. Here’s some info on the Corriente mangos you’re holding: “The Corriente variety became so popular is because some of us have been using it as Rootstocks to graft onto . This caught on and know every one wants to sell those seedlings at a very high price The Actual fruit has always been very expressive and popular. It has at some point gone up in price up to $20 a pound for peeled green fruit .. PS; Most of those “Corriente” Trees being sold around Facebook are NOT the actual original strain .. Corriente is a Name for mango size that are worth much (too small) so lots of people just say their small mangos are all the Corriente strain. Corriente has a FAT short seed extremely difficult husk to open. The fruit is short and curved the beak is round. The leaves are short and narrow will have a very distinctive smell to them. Corriente is a VERY aggressive grower and will sprout up 9 seedling from a single seed. 1 draw back is very suseptible to powdery Mildew.”
I always thought Mangos (unlike Avocados) were too tender to plant in the Bay Area. However not only has this grower in Richmond succeeded but so has a grower in Modesto. I wonder if some mango strains are more hardy. If so, which ones?
My manila mango grown from seed keep stopping their growth after about 3-4 months. I've re-potted using 30% sand, 30% peat moss, 30% perlite, and 10% mix of compost, composted manure, worm casting, and myccorhiza. They're getting 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. It's seems to be at a complete halt, and can't produce leaves. Any tips?? These baby's look like they're dying.
Hi Sir, i live in the central valley. What variety do you recommend for merced ca? I just bought a keiit and have been successful with a potted manila.
You're a brave person to grow mangoes in that area. If you are serius about growing them in containers then you would greatly benefit from watching a few videos by Dr. Richard Campbell (topmost mango authority in the US) and his preaching of "tipping" for making 8 foot tall mango trees that produce 200 lbs of fruit a year.
The great thing about growing them here is, they will dwarf themselves naturally but also by being frosted back every few years. But yes, I know all about Dr. Richard Campbell. Legend.
@@ScaryHairyGary Yes. I was fortunate enough to watch one of his live presentations here at our local tropical fruit tree club. The man is savage! I heard he produces 14 tons of mangoes from a 3/4 acre yard. Hats off.

Do the mango trees you grow in Fremont get to bear fruits eventually? If so, how old will they start fruiting?

Looks great. I've just recently started growing from seed. Let's see how they fare..
how is the grow bag tree experiment going?

Powdery mildew kills the panicles.
