Neighbor's much older tree
Hana, I was wondering about your summer irrigation. What's that like?Spaugh, My young Keitt also keeps blooming and not flushing vegetatively. I stripped the fruitset. I have never fertilized the tree in any way.Guys, I think growing mangos in southern California is easier than we think; we're just prone to over-thinking it. That's why we participate in this discussion. I know of many mature mangos throughout our region grown by people who don't give their trees great attention. I'm starting to think that the key element is patience.
Im putting GRO POWER AVO/CITRUS 8-6-8 on my avocados and cherimoyas. I will give a small dose to the mangos too and see if they will flush now with the summer heat and some food.

Try something like 10-0-9 or anything high in "N" and low in "P"
