Please see this thread if you are interested in experimenting with multiple rootstocks.
http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=20852.0Please don't get confused, I am still recommending either planting random seedlings into the ground or purchasing Lavern Manilla seedlings and planting those into the ground for mango growers in SoCal. I have had great success growing random seedlings from store bought fruit into the ground and also excellent results with Lavern Manilla seedlings. The most important thing is Not to Graft with mature scions until the tree is fully established and is fruiting size!
If you live in an exceptionally warm microclimate, you may get enough warm weather to inhibit flowering but this is not the case where I live. If you live in one of these warm areas, your mango trees should grow sufficiently without multiple rootstock technology.
I want to emphasize that I live in a marginal growing area for mango. I get frost every year and my soil pH is 8.2. The soil pH is as much of an issue, if not more so, than the cold weather because micronutrients are not made bioavailable at this high a pH.
In my DSGed experiments, the plants showed explosive growth when first planted into the ground, most likely because I topped the soil with organic amendments and the pH was closer 7. Now that the pH has drifted higher and the nutrients are gone, the growth has slowed dramatically.
I still believe the DSGing technique will be useful for accelerated growth if your soil pH is in the proper range but you will still run into issues with over and pre mature flowering. I believe this technique will be very useful for nurseries especially in Florida with the potential of accelerated growth, precocity and dwarfing the size of the tree.
In case you are wondering, single grafted trees also flower within the first year where I live.
