any diff between tipping & pruning mango tree?
« on: May 23, 2012, 04:56:43 PM »
i know the term pruning and trimming, but any difference with tipping?  Does it also help a young mango tree grown from seedling to grow more vigorously and even bloom sooner?

Those are 2 Great Videos...but basically (at least in my mind) Pruning is a little more severe than tipping...larger pieces of branches are cut or removed.

Tipping is taking just a few  inches usually off a stem or branch...

Pugging  ;) (usually means a more drastic) pruning job,lol...
