- Har Mahdeem sells mango trees at Truly Tropical. He likes to give customers a very detailed explanation on how to plant their trees. Here Har's instructions AND a demonstration!
Also, last year Chris did a short video on how to plant a mango tree:
• Grow Your Own Mangos- ...
The Best instructional video of the correct way to plant a mango in sandy soil on the internet so far!
Har sounds like a 1920's broadcaster, like Ripley's Believe it or Not!
Thanks Har, I learned a lot. Your a solid dude
I’ve learned so much from this process video - it’s quite difficult to find videos like this about mangos! Thank you for making this
Can you please do an update on this Fruit Punch mango tree that Har planted .
Thank you.
I really enjoy that video, I always look forward to knowledge fro Har,, he is very detailed and to the point, I would love to see more of his views on annonas, planting the tree care and also to see a follow up on his yard
This was great info. I would never have thought no compost in the hole!
Awesome video! Thank you Miss Chris and Har for demonstrating the transplant.
I just got a Valencia Mango tree. I was all lost on how to dwarf the tree but wasnt sure when and were I should do my cuts. Your video totally help, Thanks!
What an amazingly informative session with Mr. Har! Thank you so much for publishing!
I want to plough a mango tree but the place had some aunts
Thank you for sharing ! I live in Florida also and this was very informative .
OMG! After being a passionate (in a plant kinda way) gardener for 40+ years, I thought I knew how to plant a tree. I've always been told to "amend" the soil. But NO... for a mango, just plant in native sandy Florida soil. This old dog just learned a new trick! (I planted a Zill "Cotton Candy" mango earlier this week. Bought at ECHO in N Ft. Myers, FL)
Chihuahua Waves I’ve amended my souls here in Fl and haven’t had any issues yet.
VERY EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATIVE. I loved the extra detail on when a plant can be considered organic (after 3 years) and the pruning of the roots! Who knew??? LOL Not I! THANK YOU IMMENSELY!
Great informative video from established pros!
Thank you for this video. I was doing it all wrong. I was wonder why my trees are dying? We have very alkaline soil in So cal. I correct that by adding sulfur to the soil while planting. I hope that doesn’t disturb the roots!
Good on you Har :)
I didn’t know about the three years to “organic” thing. Not something I worry about but interesting to know.
I think that planting with compost can/cannot be a problem, it depends on the situation and what ratio of soil/compost you use. I have 100% sand soil, Mediterranean climate (southwestern part of Portugal), very dry, almost no organic matter, usually I plant my trees doing a mix of 50% native soil and 50% compost (at the most) ensuring that in the future the soil doesn't settle. In Florida with all the rain that occurs during the hot part of the year, decomposition rations are very high so maybe in that situation planting with compost is a problem. Different situations require different solutions.
Thank you for your video. I need to show this video to my wife. Because she did not agree the "depth of the plant" from pot to the ground. I know I did it right.
I paid someone to plant my tree and it was stunted and died. I was soo sad about it. He never did any of this. I bought another mango tree and I'm gonna try this method, especially with what he did to the root ball. I got a rainbow eucalyptus planted and am trying to make sure to avoid it because it will kill anything that competes with water. Fingers crossed, I hope this one will grow. Thank you for this information.
I never knew about pruning the roots or that compost in the hole was bad. Thanks for posting.
Har knows his fruit trees.
pretty sure Will Ferrell played Har's character in an SNL skit at the Welshley Arms Hotel years ago. Har is the man!
Thank you so much for the video! Most of mine I put in a year ago I planted low and I’m wondering if it’s possible to wait for a rain and dig them out and raise them up again as you advised, since they are planted too low
Me too. Mine is growing great right now but it’s low. Feel like it will bite me in the butt later so thinking of pulling out now after allot of recent rain and building higher to give it time in this still summer time to deal with the shock and before winter!
Nice mango plant.keep in touch for further updates.
Need more how to videos like this
so mangos aren't that delicate about being root pruned if pot bound? I know avocados are highly sensitive and you don't want to mess around with the roots when you transplant. Anyways, I'm definitely adding this vid to my mango playlist.
I totally agree with you. i planted my 4 feet avocado tree and decide to move it 2 months later. Same spot just 5 more inches away from the wall. 2/3 weeks later all the leaves dropped and all was left was sticks.... I was super sad but it eventually it revived itself. I learn to leave it alone
Thanks Har.
Good information!
Go Har!
Wow I’ve been doing it all wrong. The person at that nursery said to put 50-50 black cow mixed in with the sand. I suppose I’ll have a dead tree soon.😧
Mixing some organic matter in with sand often helps.
mam i want to see the current updates of this plant...in which video tell me
Can you please explain how or what soil should we use. How to make soil mix for mango plant in the pot.
Insightful, thank you
can we get an update on this tree?
Hi I am really new with mango tree. I wonder what fertilizer I have to use after plant it from pot. Thanks so much
Love Har🍃🍃🍃
Thanks for all the videos. I’ve learned a lot. Didn’t know there were so many different varieties.
I’m in the Redland/Homestead area and we have lots of rock. And I mean it’s not just rocky but we have huge coral rock. I use a backhoe to make my holes and sometimes I feel like I’m carving into this rock and making a pot. I know people say put back what you take out when planting but it’s just rock w not dirt. What can I do in my case? I want to have all my holes done and have a plan before visiting and purchasing your trees.
Do mangos have invasive roots? I would love to plant some mangoes about 5-7' from the house. Or do they do well in containers? If so, how large of a container? I heard that a cactus mix is good for them. Thanks!
There certainly trees that have more invasive roots, but if you want your tree close to your house, it would be best to keep it in a pot
@@TrulyTropical His question is about the size of the pot!
My sweet apples grow in the big pot which is 23" in DIA. We got fruits two years ago. Some fruits are growing.
Forget the roots. Mango trees get huge. Try not to plant anywhere near the roof or any power lines. Same with avocados. There are these things called hurricanes.
As a gardener I often wonder what shoes are best. I usually wear sneakers but when planting and watering they get soaked. What is your suggestion.
I planted my mango tree 10 days ago I wish I would have seen this video first my leaves look horrible now like they have fungus is it possible for me to pull it out of the ground and put it back in a pot
My soil in Vista California is hard clay like when dry and very slippery when wet. Do i still use the original soil? I could never dig a hole in my yard unless i poured water little by little in the hole as i dig it out..
Wow... sounds like a challenge for you and the the plants! Does your local agricultural extension office provide recommendations? It sounds like adding other materials to the hole would be a good thing.
@@TrulyTropical I put 2 trees in the ground last August. One I added a bunch of kellog potting soil and mixed with the native soil that tree has grown a lot. The other one I mixed a small amount of composted mulch. That tree is barely growing. I could send pics but dont know how to.
I’m also from vista and would love to know if mixing potting soil is a good thing when planting mangoes.
Hey Chris. I recently planted 8 mango grafts in my farm in India. Malgova, Alphonsa and a dwarf Thai variety. I generously mixed dried and composted cow manure along with the soil while planting. It's been two months and the malgova is doing great. The rest are healthy but slow. Har mentioned that the trees may die within 3 years. Do you think I better replant them after removing the fertilizer? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
How are your trees are doing now?
I bet ur trees are all alive
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.
Har is the man
How long should it stay in the pot before planting in the ground?
Its the same size as yours and in a 2 gallon pot.
What pot soil do you suggest starting a seed in? I used a bag of "garden soil" from Lowes. Is that ok?
that's about the size of my fruit punch... my poor ailing fruit punch. Think I've gotten rid of the anthracnose now I'm waiting for any signs of growth, so far it's been static since I got it a few months ago.
Hopefully it'll grow a lot over the summer! Once its roots get established, it seems to grow very fast
i'm tempted to just put it in the ground and see if it takes off but it doesn't seem healthy enough to transplant and I dont' want the shock to kill it... I just have to fight off the urge for another few weeks, by then I'll be too paranoid to do it during summer
How did you get rid of the anthracnose?
@@Justanotherhuman2 i used a copper spray for foliar and then a systemic that you apply with water and it rids it internally I can't remember the brand or type. Doesn't matter the tree is dead, turns out certain Florida rootstocks are prone to disease out here but some nurseries will just sell you a tree even though most likely it will die. Most people here in socal grow Manilla for the rootstock and then graft or do topwork. Some Florida cultivars will grow here but I haven't run across anyone who has a fruit punch unless it's in a large container or they completely filled a pit with the type of soil that it natively likes and grew it out. My manila is growing fine.
Can you transplant when u have flowers?
The video is very instructive but I would have cut the hip-high.
Do mango trees require Sandy soil?
too shallow, what if tornado comes. OTHERWISE it will be easily uprooted.
Nice vdo...r the dogs indian breed ?
Those lazy dogs should have volunteered their help. At least they should have held the trees while Har was working on Chris’s roots!!
They're good at digging holes, but never in the desired location...
How to prune a mango tree when planting it, at 14:00
My trees seem to grow slower than trees on TH-cam. I've never trimmed the roots. Does trimming roots promote healthier growth?
Trimming roots makes a much healthier root system
I was told that the native soil in California is too alkaline and the mango has to be planted entirely in compost. Any comments ?
I don’t know California but planting in compost is a bad idea. Even if the tree did like that (which it really won’t) the compost will decompose and the tree will sink in the end (leaving it too deep).
What you use as root stock is important, in Fla, most grafting is done on top of a seedling variety named "turpentine" this does well in Florida's soil. but many that have shipped grafted trees to CA, have had problems with turpentine rootstock in their soils.
I have read reports from growers that Manila does well in CA as a rootstock, I think some Fla nurseries offer an option for non-turpentine rootstock grafted trees. in any case if you buy from a local nursery, ask what they were grafted on.
@7:35 there's a light colored root, maybe 1/8 inch diameter, that was growing along the pot wall for at least four inches. Why didn't you cut it off? You must have noticed it because you pruned around it. Were you afraid pruning it might shock the tree too much? Thank you, Har.
har har har!
+100 thanks!
A little long but good to know
Can't belive he cur them branches off!! I would have just leave it till it grows much longer and taller then do it, but then again that's my opinion. 🙉🙉
How about if the soil is super sandy!!??
Mixing some organic material (like compost) in with the sand helps.
@@TrulyTropical thanks I love your videos,I'll meet you soon for sure.
I wanna be like him, when I get his age, very good video
Har!? 🤔
His wife won’t be happy with his shirt 😉
gabo if he had a good wife she wouldn’t complain and she would understand.
what kind of mulch do you use?
😅😂
So much waffle in these vids rather than info.
He's really awful!
