Mango seed
It all depends on where you are and how you want to grow the seed. Do you
want a houseplant? Or an outdoor tree? There are some great "growing from seed" websites, also "Growing Fruit Crops in Containers". If you are planning an indoor plant, realize that it is unlikely that you will ever get fruit from it, but it can be a fun experiment. I had one growing for a while in a pot, but it didn't survive this dry winter we've had in Zone 5. ( I finally set up a humidifier which saved my avocados, but it was too late for my mango.) Don't know if my rambling helps you any, but I figured I'd give it a shot... Kat "MOM PEAGRAM" wrote in message ...

Every little bit helps. I'm in Ontario. So, it would definitely be a
houseplant. "Kat" wrote in message ... It all depends on where you are and how you want to grow the seed. Do you want a houseplant? Or an outdoor tree?

Mango seed
Yes, it is possible to grow a mango from seed. However, mangoes are
not indoor plants, and unless you live in a tropical or subtropical environment, you will never have much success. Mango trees are --big-- trees and need to be several years old before they bear fruit. They cannot withstand frost. In addition, most mangoes in commerce are hybrids, so the tree will probably not be true to its parent and will not yield fruit of the same quality. J. Del Col |

Mango seed
I don't know how easy it is to germinate with the husk on but if you
take your pruning shears and cut the husk open, there's a big nut inside it. Remove the seed and cover with an inch of soil. Germination happens in about a week or two. I'm in Ontario too. They make lovely house plants if you pinch. Large leaves looks very tropical. I've heard that the leaves can cause skin allergies for some people. Good luck! :) |
