How to plant mangoes

The planting method of mango is as follows:

1, basin soil selection.

Try to choose weakly acidic sandy soil with good drainage, loose soil and thick soil layer, and the PH value is preferably between 5.5 and 7.0. It is best to choose a larger and deeper ceramic flowerpot for cultivation, which can meet the growth needs of mango.

2. Planting time.

The survival rate of planting in spring and autumn will be higher.

3. select seeds.

If you use grafted seedlings, you only need to plant them in a normal pot. If you want to plant mango seeds, you need to treat them first, and then plant them in a pot after germination. Use fully mature mango kernels, remove the pulp and wash with clear water, then soak in clear water for about 7 days to germinate. During this period, fresh water needs to be replaced once a day, and the temperature should be kept at about 20 degrees.

4. Potted plants.

Plant the germinated seeds head down in the soil. After planting, add manure and water it properly to let it take root.

Precautions for planting:

1. illumination: after mango is planted, it needs to be maintained in a sunny place to ensure 6-8 hours of sunshine every day. But avoid strong light to avoid sunburn.

2. Temperature: The suitable temperature for mango growth is between 25 and 30 degrees. If the temperature is lower than 20 degrees, its growth rate will become slow. If it is below 10, the leaves and flowers will stop growing. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that its growth temperature is within a suitable range.

3. Fertilization: During the flowering and fruiting period, it will consume a lot of nutrients. At this time, it is necessary to supplement nutrition in time and increase the amount and frequency of fertilization. Especially in June 10- 1 1, topdressing must be done in time, and nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer must be applied 1-2 times in about half a month to ensure the nutrition needed for fruit development.
