4 years later I've realized I've planted all essential oddity mangoes lol. I guess I have a weird taste Graham has hints of coconut, to me at least, especially by the peel, which is why I love it and planted it. Also fiberless. Nam doc mai is really sweet and clean tasting, quite refreshing and firm yet completely fiberless Alampur baneshan is a green mango when ripe that is almost white inside. It's spicy and resinous, a real treat in the flavor department.
Crafton! He is one of the kindest people I know and just the best person I have been around. He also told me that if there is any person in the world who has eaten more Annonas than anybody it's Har Mahdeem.
I love watching these videos as far as showing tree & fruit size,flavors, colors it would be very informative if we had more information as far as how cold tolerant/sensitivity, growing zone where they grow successfully in other places other than Florida like maybe Texas, Arizona and what their doing to grow so we could look for that particular variety to try and grow because some are more successful than others and also I do hear sometimes about the fiber in some and also I’ve heard that many varieties like dry climates which would be good for central Texas versus humidity it would be good to know that information on all that are being presented on video tasting not just in some. Thank you for sharing information on a fruit that we would all love to grow in our yards
Very cool!! I have been interested in mangoes recently, I was told at the nursery that spraying the plant with honey water can increase the production on the ones that aren't producing as well.
Love your videos, you have loads of great information. I can't wait to have a mango lunch soon, thank you for the idea Har! I have a Keitt that is loaded this year after such a poor harvest last year.
I know it is impossible to have and show all the popular varieties. But the Ataulfo is a big missing on this list. Other less popular but with terrffic flavor is the 'Manila' variety. Originally from The Philippines and brought to Mexico in the 18th century. Very popluar in Mexico and growth mostly in the Gulf Coast of the state of Veracruz.
I've not heard of anyone growing Mangos who enters all these stats into a computer (later applied to an a.i. to efficiently compile and properly administer data)
Dear Truly Tropical -- help please, I have squirrels eating and gnawing at the bark and limbs of my mango. They are not attaching the fruit, but just the bark for nutrients, it seems. WHAT SHALL I DO?
I really like Dot. It has a very good standard Florida mango flavor. I'd never call it an oddity, but whatever. And I'd like to try Coconut Cream and Ice Cream. I don't know why Har never detects any coconut flavor in mangoes, but most people do. Nonetheless, Har is the coolest of the cool!
