Mango pot planting method

Mango is one of the famous tropical fruits. Because of its delicate flesh, unique flavor and rich nutrition, it is deeply loved by people, so it is known as "King of Tropical Fruit". At present, there are many varieties of mango. However, when potted mango is cultivated indoors, we usually choose small mango. Let's take a look at the method of potted mango planting.

Preparation for pot planting of mango

Mango pot planting to make preparations, first choose a ripe mango, although this fruit is not delicious, but it can ensure that the core is fully developed and nutritious, and related to whether the mango seeds can finally germinate and grow well. Cut off all the flesh of the mango with a knife, and leave the seed as a spare. Use a knife to open the shell of the seed, that is, cut it open with a knife from the small gap next to it, then divide it into two pieces and soak the germ of the seed in water.

Pot planting method of mango

1. Prepare a standard planting soil in the flowerpot, then bury the seed half in the soil, and the germ end of the seed goes down into the soil, so as to facilitate the germination of the seed and protect the germ from being bitten by ants or snails.

2. after planting, put the flowerpot in a warm, humid and sunny place, pay attention to take care of and keep the soil moist. Under the right conditions of normal temperature and humidity, you can see that the top of the seed begins to sprout five or six days after planting, and grows day by day.

Techniques of pot culture of mango

1. Temperature: mango likes warmth and is not resistant to frost. The optimum temperature for growth is 25: 30 ℃, which grows slowly below 20 ℃. Leaves and inflorescences will stop growing below 10 ℃, and nearly ripe fruits will suffer cold damage. The effective temperature for growth is 18-35 ℃, the optimum temperature for shoot growth is 24-29 ℃, and the daily average temperature for fruit setting and young fruit growth is higher than 20 ℃.

2. Illumination: mango is a light-loving fruit tree. Sufficient light can promote flower bud differentiation, blossom and fruit setting, improve fruit quality and improve appearance. Usually, the single plant in the sunny or open environment of the crown blossoms more, the fruit setting rate is high, there are too many branches and leaves, the crown is closed, the mango with insufficient light blossoms and bears less, and the appearance and quality of the fruit are poor. Through shaping and pruning bentgrass, the light conditions in the garden and trees can be improved to increase the yield and prolong the high yield period.

3. Moisture: mango grows well in the area with annual rainfall of 700mm to 2000mm, and the uneven distribution of annual rainfall in South China often affects the growth and development. In the florescence and early fruiting stage, if the air is too dry, it is easy to cause falling flowers and fruit, and too much Rain Water leads to rotten flowers and poor pollination and fertilization. rainfall in summer is too concentrated, which often leads to serious fruit diseases, and the autumn drought after harvest affects the germination and growth of autumn shoot mother branches.

4. Soil: mango has no strict requirements on soil, and mango can be cultivated in areas below 600 meters above sea level. However, the soil layer is deep, the groundwater level is less than 3 meters, good drainage, slightly acidic loam or sandy loam is better.

Note: indoor mango pot watering must be well controlled, especially in the indoor air conditioning temperature is not too low, summer in cool days, including rainy days, if the soil is dry, water every three to five days, but also to indoor ventilation, otherwise prone to diseases and insect pests, see dry see wet watering. Water once a week or two in winter, and the soil should be watered thoroughly.
