Thanks for the comments, folks.
GwenninPR, it is good to know there are more addicts like me out there
Pug, Corona, CA does gets cold for four months out of a year, but rarely hard freezes. I grow in pots mainly because the soil in my yard is too badly drained to grow mango trees well. I am also out of spaces because my yard is already heavily planted. Yes, it is Al's gritty mix. I just started using it since last year, so still too early to say how it works in my dry climate. Your success with that beautiful Glenn in gritty mix is one of the reasons I decided to try the mix. Thank you! Your pugging experiences also excites me, I will probably pug most of my mangos when it gets warmer next month.
Mangomandan, lunch at my place in 2015 sounds great! You are always welcomed, but you have to bring me at least a 3 gallon Maha Chanok from FL
