Here's What Happens When You Remove Your Mango Flowers 

Most growers advise people to leave the very base of one or two panicles (with one or two flowers) in situ, otherwise the plant will put out a second flush of flowers thereby weakening itself considerably. The advice is to allow some embryonic fruits to form to say half inch in diameter, then remove the remaining panicles. That should prevent the formation of a second flush of panicles.

Beautiful! Pays off to be patient allowing tree to grow strong before allowing it to produce fruit!!

Guys, I have been growing various thing since I leaves in a city, I never wanted to grow mangos since I've plenty of them in west indies but definitly I'll give it a try! Mwny thanks for that much passion for this great tree.

Your love for gardening is refreshing to see in someone so young . Great video , plz don't stop what you're doing !!!

Young and wise! I like you guys, thank you for sharing your videos! I live in North Florida where mangoes and avocados struggles(we can get freezing cold weather and kills everything in a single night!) these are tropical weather fruit trees, but who knows, I'll keep trying.

I made the mistake last year and let my little 3gal cogshall mango fruit on a few branches, this year I don't have much growth to show for it and I knew better. Ill see what happens now that I just when outside and cut it correctly. Thanks guys!

Awesome,thanks for the info, you just helped me,thanks again

I started growing mangos after studies on RU-vid university. I follow truely tropical and man she guided me to tip tip tip as each new branch gives opportunity for flowers. Now I have a Nam Doc Mai with 24 branch tips and they all have flowers in December (some have 3 spikes). My Coconut cream and a Julie followed suit and I see early bloom bud swelling.

Such a great share 👍🥭 ours is now flowering

I did and it works with many flowers and leaves

Great topic, important I do to anybody starting to grow mangoes. I will have to tip of the ends before the flowering starts, because I will see my trees back once they already have a fruit.. and i want to avoid that this year. Keep it up, I just subscribed

Wow beautiful mango 😍😍😍

I think everybody understand the concept allowing a young grafted mango tree to prioritize growth rather than producing fruit in the first year. The important thing not mentioned is not to remove the flowering bloom too early otherwise the tree will simply push out new flower. Wait until the flower hold fruit and reach about 2 cm in size before removing. In Florida, that would be about early April.

Awesome video 🤙🏽

Thanks for sharing your video

nice video n nice river at the end

thank you so much

The reason the flower came back again is because you have to wait until flower has fruited to size of bean before removing it. If you remove it before it will continue to grow

Very important video you uploaded, I am glad to see someone that did not fall prey to the urge of letting your young tree produce fruit. When you cut the inflorescence stems, and part of the tip, on your coconut cream, you removed the apical dominance of the tip. this sends the hormones that trigger foliage growth. I recommend you do it to your Kent as well, prune/trim or "tip" the points. to stimulate branching. When someone plants a new tree, they are usually are so anxious to see fruit on it, and will allow the tree to set fruit. the problem with this, is that the tree uses all its energy into fruit production, and will set your tree back a year. in some extreme cases, it can even kill your tree. Unlike trees grown from seeds, grafted trees "think" they are mature. because the scion used to graft them came off a mature fruit producing tree but root system is is still not big enough yet on the seedling rootstock. By the way, I have both Kent and Coconut creme, good choice.

wow I like your Idea my friend

Good tip! I also do that with my citrus, take off buds and tiny fruit so that larger ones get bigger.

Cool bananas, thanks for this, very insightful. I have about 40 Tommy Atkins trees planted 2y ago (+2y), highest now about 2m, lowest still 40cm. I'm not commercial, planted them in my yard close to each other & will keep the tress smallish. Also have about 40 papaya trees, 1 fig, lemons, oranges, naartjie, grenadillas & a few strawberry plants. Looking to add chillies now. Thought I was clever & was giving the trees an extra growth chance by breaking the flower buds out... but man, just like your Keitt, I got flowers all over the place, up to 20 flower clusters on my strongest trees. Just chopped them all off now below the original flower bud. Pity about the crown of about 6 leaves I lost per cut, but totally confident it's worth the new growth ! Will update in a month. It's Spring tomorrow so growth season is here... For some weird reason the leaves just under the flower bud sit very close to each other, never noticed it before. That coconut cream sounds like it tastes unreal...if anyone is coming to South Africa and can mule in a couple of buds for grafting, that will be awesome...will scratch back :)

Thanks

Very nice

So pretty

this mango trri verry nice

mangoes are great

Those are nice mango trees. Good job and thank you for sharing. If you don't know it yet, the roots of mango trees are known to have surface roots and if they are planted near the fence like you have, overtime, it will push your fence and damage it. So you might want to consider planting them away from your fence or keep them in a big container to control growth. I few years ago, I planted my mango tree about 3 feet away from the fence and it grew so fast then I noticed that my brick fence, like yours, started to crack and pushed out. We found out that the roots of my mango was causing the cracks.

Excellent and informative video. I might urge you to move the mulch away from trunk at least 8".

Thanks for the tip. You two are sweet. :-)

Why aren't you guys posting anymore .... Love to see updates on your garden !😊❤

Good

When a mango tree is young, you cut off 2/3 of the flowering pinnacle leaving about an inch on the tree. This causes the tree to redirect its energy into leaf production. Then in about a month you trim off the remaining left over pinnacle. If you cut off the entire pinnacle and flowers, the tree will produce more of them using up energy. Hope this helps.

Wow 7 years ago! So how are they doing? I just went and snapped off a bunch of panicles from my Valencia pride that flowered for the first time.5 of them and left 3. I did it because they were drooping because I think they were not getting enough water. Hopeing it will reflower like yours did? How are your mangoes? Are they producing now? Thanks for your videos.

thank you ,I have tried same thing waiting for result

Do you have a video of you cutting?

That's the thing with them- they will bloom,and not grow the whole year out of the tropics. Some flowers have to go or it goes into winter with old foliage here in the SF bay area.

Today I picked lot of mangos from my garden

Great presentation and advice thank you. Can you please provide a link to the initial flower removal video because I cannot track it down and am keen to watch it. Thanks again, Michael.

What do you mean you cut under the flowers? Like an inch below? Or you ripped the flowers off like you did in the second tree

Your ace 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I make America great again with plants !!!

I was just cutting up my mangos and found one with the seed splitting and a little bud forming inside. I live in Arizona. What are my chances of getting a mango tree to grow from this seed?

So I repotted my large mango sprout, and I’ve been keeping an eye on it. The seed has spit completely in half and is starting to turn blackish brown. Should I remove it so my tree doesn’t get sick? Or is that just the color it turns when it’s decomposing?

This might be a good way to geat later season mangos also?

Grafted mangoes produce within a year an thats what they do removed the flowers to developed better roots an a better crop next time great

useful vedio, thanks for sharing :)

If I have this tree I put some support.. & 3 year necessary to remove flower to get vigorous growth..

I hope your mango trees will stand when wind blow through, If I were you, I would have few strong wood poles support them. Thank you for showing us your garden.

Hi! If I remove the flower (if it is cold for flower i.e. below 5 degrees Celisus) will the tree push new flowers later?

Thanks:')

Even the dog is into growing greens.......

That CC mango is vibrant. I wonder if just snapping off the flowers on the Kent left some "flowering genetic material" on the branches which told the plant to quickly produce more flowers. As opposed to the cutting off flowers on the CC and the plant thought "Hmm, I don't have any flowering materiel on my branches so I better produce more branches". Just a complete guess on my part.

Would this be the same as tipping?

i cut my seed in half while cutting my mando..will it still grow???

How is the Manzanillo mango?

How did you get your small plant to flower so early? I am looking for a Madame Francis mango plant, do you know where I can get one?

Love the results from the 1st tree....so you just cut under the flower and left the stem from what i understand...also were can I get a tree? I live in Cali.

How far below the flower should I cut

I'm trying to grow an indoor mango plant. Someone said to grow seed in plastic bag and water within 10 days it came up thru the dirt. Now I am growing another. One has little green leaves the other came up with long white stem with a stub in white. Now it is a white flower. What is the difference between the 2. They were not bot in the same supermarket.

Hello there Brandon and allyssa. Question about planting the mango here in Phoenix? Is it best to plant on the east side of the house or can I plant on my southwestern side next to my wall? Thank you

Hi what zone do you live at? I live in 9B zone and it is so burning hot down here I have a hard time keeping my plants and veggies healthy. Seems like the sun just scorches anything I plant. Both of my mango trees ended up with anthracnose...I have not yet enjoyed a good harvest, but I will not give up!

Hello! Thanks for sharing your idea. My question is , how to graft the young manggo tree if i don't have a mother mango tree?

Hello how did you grow your msgo plant did you grow from pit i have pit put it in dark to get roots how must i grow it .Your tree is lovely .

nice t-shirt

So cute the entire flower off at the stem...even leaves above it?????

I live in the south region of the UK, I have started off several Mango trees this year alone and now have planted in pots where they seem to be thriving! They have been in my south facing summer house all summer and now the days are getting shorter and cooling off, have moved them indoors. They were grown from mangos bought from the supermarket so no idea what variety they are, I am guessing that it is ok to treat them the same when flowering for the first time [to remove the flowers] if lucky enough to get them to survive that long during the winter??

If you cut the flowers just above instead of just below, then they won’t shoot out more flowers and will use the energy on growing instead.

hey guys you should put some stabilising steaks on those fruit trees.

I have 4 grafted Kent mango in pot, now decided to plant on ground, how many distance should I space between the Kent mango tree,

Help!!!! My mango tree is growing straight up... What can I do to help it branch out?? 😢🌴

A Tree of 40 Fruit is one of a series of fruit trees created by the New York-based artist Sam Van Aken using the technique of grafting. Each tree produces forty types of stone fruit, of the genus Prunus, ripening sequentially from July to October in the United States like that (we should also do in different types of mango varieties in one plant by grafting?)

GOOD WORK MAN 👍🌟

I have a carry mango tree that exact size? its in my back yard in sw florida..i last 3 months it has tripled in size...how long before i should get a few mangos??? 2 or 3 years maybe? thanks

i have for the first time few branch stems that have become reddish color, does this mean they are preparing to flower?

I've got three seeds and a possible fourth. Only one is creamy the other two have some black.....are they bad seeds? Only one to try and germinate thus far? Did you use water and toothpick method to start??? This is my very first attempt.

Where are you located?

I've grown up planting mango trees, the trouble is it has to be planted about at least 5 foot away from concrete or brick walls as the trees get big with age, the rooting gets big too and could have a tendency to lift the fence resulting in splits or breaks.

How much old is your plant?

Would it a mango tree grow in Northern California close to Vallejo ca

I planted different species of mango trees, They're about 5 or less months old, idk when it starts to produce flowers but in case that happens in the near future, should I remove the flowers?

What do you mean when you say cut under the flower?

how to encourage mango trees to start branching out instead of just growing straight up?

Where have you guys been? We miss u

Awesome... mantap

Updates?

Salem Oregon in the house⚽⚽⚽ I love mangoes and oranges so I would really like your help in getting some grown in Salem Oregon. I know we're not hot enough but I was wondering about building a small covering⚽✌️🙃🤟🤘🤙🤙😜😋 nursery❓

Remove that stake and encourage the tree to develop a more robust trunk. Also, you have them too close to your wall. Mango trees grow huge...enough to wreck that wall. We have the things growing wild here in Central Queensland down under.

Sir, don't you think you have planted the mango trees in the ground very near to each other?

I heard the best tasting mago is "nam doc mai", did you plant any?

so was the difference with the coconut cream is that you cut lower?

You must let it set fruit then when they are marble sized cut them off and they won’t reflower

You only take one of the flowering branches?

Hello At what age the mango grow friuts

Did you keep any of the mango flowers?

what kinda climate are you in? where are your from?

So if i try to plant a mango in 6th hardiness zone it's practically impossible to grow it? Maybe there is technology that helps the mango survive cold winters?

What will happen if i left the flowers on a young mango tree?

What Happens When You Remove Your Mango Flowers? Yes, your mango no longer has flowers. hahahh

are these mango trees grafted?..... or not
