Seems like you have a knack for picking the really reputable sellers.  I know nothing about TESP but just quickly browsed their offerings.  I noticed the "Thai salak" of the variety Pondoh.  Pondoh is from Java.  When did Thailand annex Java?  Looks like another one to avoid ...

Hahaha, maybe this seller has a salak pondoh tree in the garden? Or maybe these seeds were sent to them from Indonesia:

That site looks like it may have suppliers around the world who send out seeds on their behalf and I suppose it is based in Thailand.I would be wary and question precocious mangosteens.Under 5 years for any variety unless there are new hybrids being done and tested raises my eyebrows.

Rock it sounds like you really need the large leafed mangosteen and the big fruited borneo type to round out your collection.Those big borneo ones have been a burr under the saddle for me in the last couple of seasons.I have eaten dozens and dozens of kilograms for just a few seeds.

In Brasil have two main areas who produce mangosteen
1- in the North in the state Pará
2 - in northeastern , in south of state Bahia
I buy fresh fruit mangosteen since 2003, in the wholesale marketing, to make seedling,
The fruits from Pará are small and some fruit are rotten inside, some have  fungi in skin, in 10 fruits around 15 viable seeds
The fruits from Bahia are big, the biggest fruits around 180 grams,  all fruits are good, the skin is cleaned,  in 20 fruits perhaps 1 or 2 viable seed
In beginning I thought the climate was the difference, now I know the climate is not the difference

Ricardo, 180g mangosteen, that must be a monster. I have never had so big a fruit like that, it will be great to eat such a big fruit. I remember Mike also has a 200 g  large variety, maybe yours are the same variety.

5 fruits mangosteen more than 1 kilo, it have bigger
