How to grow mango kernel

Mango kernel is the core of mango. When we finish eating mango, we will find a kernel, which can be left for planting. So, how to grow mango kernel?

How to grow mango kernels

1. The sowing period is the mango ripening season from June to July. Because the seeds are fresh, the source is easy, and the time value is hot and humid, the survival rate is high after sowing. The best choice of seed is full seed. When sowing, you can choose the seed from fresh food to about 20 days, and wash the residual meat and dry it slightly.

two。 It is necessary to peel off the shell before sowing. During the operation, the tail end of the seed can be clamped with a shearing pin, twisted downward along the suture line, tearing one side of the seed shell, and then the other side. The larger the crack is, the easier it is to take out the embryo kernel, but it should not hurt the embryo kernel as far as possible. If it hurts a little occasionally, it will not damage its germination and development. Because the mango seed has a hard outer seed coat (shell), it will affect the germination. The germination rate can be effectively increased by removing the outer seed coat and covering 2 cm of soil.

3. When sowing, the seed should be upright, the triangle planting method should be adopted, the navel should be down, and the seed should not be sown horizontally, because it will cause irregular germination. It can germinate about 7 days after sowing.

Usually the mango kernels you buy cannot grow. The mangoes shipped abroad are picked when they are not ripe and then ripe. The kernel of the fruit is not mature and cannot be reproduced. Mature mango kernels can reproduce, but they are generally propagated by grafting.
