How to grow a mango tree
"Really Easy and Fun!"
How I did it: I took the pit of an eaten mango and put it in a large pot with soil. The pit cracked open and germinated 14 days later. After that, it grew like a weed! Almost overnight the "small sprout" turned into a small tree trunk with 3 large red leaves. My mango tree is now 4 weeks old with a 7 inch tall trunk and 8 large green leaves. Its growing really well. I put it outside during the hot days and bring it inside at night.
14 days
21-ish days
Lessons & tips:
- Keep the soil moist
- Keep it in full sun once it starts getting big
- Bring it inside when its chilly out
- Keep it in a very large container as mango trees can grow up to 100 ft high and their roots need a lot of room.
- If you live in a warm or tropical climate you should plant your mango tree in the ground once it reaches a height of maybe 8-12 inches.
- If you live in a cold climate do not plant your mango tree in the ground. It will not survive the winter. Keep it in a large container where you can "easily" haul it indoors in the winter.
