I had one Karen Michelle from my garden last year and it was underwhelming to say the least. one mango doesn't justify judgement, so will wait for more seasons. There are better ones out there

1. Dont buy from someone you dont know on the forum. There are people here for a long time.
2. If you must buy from a newbie or someone from overseas, pay via goods and services option on Paypal or some method where you get your money back by filing a claim.

This Malika mango is showing color change
What should I do now coach :)







Mallika along with most mangoes taste the best when picked green and ripened in newspaper in a dark place. indian mangoes ripened on tree will lose flavor and texture. Pick green when shoulders are full. no other secret

CRFG Orange County had a sale of Cado bags of 20-22 cados for $20, when I picked up yesterday they only had Carmen. I will let you all know how it tastes. Have you tasted it Brad?

are there seedlings that never fruit? I got a plant some 9 years ago, didn't grow much and no fruits.

shipping scions today, weather has been great for grafting lately.

Bad Weather Update:

those who sent messages inquiring about scions shipment, the news is I have not shipped them. We are in weird cold snap right now in Nor/So Cal with temps dipping below 50 at night. This is not optimum for grafting. Idea is we all expect success and that comes when you get night temps to not dip below 60, otherwise grafts will stall out.

if any of you are in a hurry, let me know, otherwise wait until we clear this cold snap that we are currently in. I value your success over failure.

61
Update:

due to late blooms, I have Sir Prise, Reed, and Sharwil still available.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Sharwil Avocado
« on: May 07, 2021, 01:49:40 PM »
how to tell if Sharwil is ready to pick? does it turn black on skin on tree or stays green? I picked few times in green stage.

63
what have you been doing to them? getting multiple pollen? weird shapes. yes, the fruit is huge, mine was like this, did not weigh.

64
Behl, I must confess that when I saw your sumo photos you posted a year ago of this same fruit, I was thinking about it when I started this post of the largest mandarin.

I do have a large sumo that I thought could be a world's record weight, but yours looks larger. To bad you didn't get a photo evidence showing the weight of it. Just looking at your fruit in the picture and estimating its weight after looking at my large fruit, I think yours weighs about 1.5 lbs. The one I have is 1.3 lbs and I will now post the photo for evidence later tonight.

Here is another perspective. its next to what I call large Tango





Just look at the size of single slice vs. large Tango whole.

65
Yup, the one on the right seems like it would easily be over 1 lbs. Hows your sumo fruit this year, did the same tree still have many fruits or did it have less fruits?
I have Sumo on Tango rootstock, and on some orange, and two on lemon rootstock. The one on Tango are the biggest and sweetest, very juicy, consistent quality and production year over year. Really excellent. Ones on lemon rootstock dont size up and have very thick skin. Looks like rootstock plays a big role.

Hello. I’m new and was wondering if there are any scions available and what do you have? I’d love to buy some. Thanks!🙏

I sent you PM, I pruned all but two small trees and they are all multi grafted, with limited supply.

67
all late orders were shipped today, season is now closed as all trees are fully pruned. Please contact back in Aug for new growth wood.  Thank you for getting scions. Please dont forget to post pictures of your takes.

68
Look at the size compared to head size, these were huge Sumo 2 yrs ago. Did not weigh them but felt way over 1 lb easy.

Peach Cobbler, does wonderful in SO Cal and is not tangerine flavored if not let it go over ripe.
Sweet Tart, Honey Kiss, and Lemon Zest are all top notch

Behl had resolved this issue and we both had move on.  As for you..whatever, you don't matter anyway..BYE.
Behl, these are the rejects that sometimes visit the forums that disrespect you without knowing what you’ve done for us.....don’t need their money or business. Thank you Behl for your work here.

Resolved? how convenient! I have barred you for all dealings with me. You are typical rouge buyers who look for refunds/monies by putting bad reviews, it works on Amazon so you try here in this forum. I am sure others on this forum take notice of how you are to deal with.

Shame on you.
I am sure all members here take note of you for future dealings. 

74
My bad for sending you pm saying 4 sharwil + 1 Reed and sending you extra $6 for priority shipping and instead got 3 Reed + 2 sharwil..what a joke. Not in my "millions" pm to you that that I once said I wanted 3 Reed + 2 sharwil.  Got it dude!!

I refunded your $24 and $6 today. Don't need your money. I dont do this to get rich but to pay for my gardening hobby, annual garden fertilizers, up keep etc. You are like one of those Amazon buyers who complain, leave negative reviews quickly but never appreciate anyone. Enjoy the scions I sent on the house.

75
Just sent a pm, if it is not too late to order.

Thanks!
there is no PM that I have from you, what were you looking for. whatever is available is listed on top of the page and will be gone by this Saturday.
