I planted several mango trees early this last summer, most all are doing well. Most I won't let produce fruit, but I do have a few that I bought in larger containers and they're big enough to allow to keep a few mangoes.
The larger ones in particular are very healthy looking, but not one flower. I do fertilize 3-4 times a year, about a month ago I have them some potassium, but not one flower. I see other trees in my area full of flowers.
Trying to figure out why? I could understand if they flower, but drop the fruit, but not one flower on several trees??
The only thing I can think of is MOST (but not all) are in an area that is well irrigated. I've been running the sprinklers to help them establish and all. I've read they need a dry spell to flower, is this true?
Any ideas? I am seeing some fresh vegetation pushing up, at least that's going for it.
Cookie Monster? Need gypsum or something??
Thanks!
