You certainly did.  That is precisely what I said.

I use pH Down !

I use General Hydroponics nutrients with Diamond Nectar. I reduce the strength 50 percent and feed constantly via foliar, and every 2 to 3 days via root.  My plants are only 5 months old and they look great. However, I have 5 slow-growers that are alive, but growing very little.
I am using them as a control group since they were all planted at the same time. The JEDI Knights, are a little under 9.5".  I am using a proprietary root-development procedure.  If that works you will hear about it for sure. I started out with 20 seeds and wound up with 6 all star, super-star seedlings.  But, I also figured out what's wrong with the mangosteen industry. Unbelieveable !!!  You can see the plants at: HydroponicConfigurationSystems.com.



Four of the 6 JEDI Knights !!  (lol)

I get great results with it.  Mine are gorgeous !!

Hello, everyone ! I am a new Newbie from New York ! I love most fruits, but I have a particular attachment and preference for Mangoes.  I got a few from Walmart and decided to see whether the seeds would germinate.  The seeds survived on nothing but plain filtered water for 3 to 4 months.  Two of the seeds didn't survive.  My tree is about 18 months old, 14.5" tall, with gorgeous micro-detailed leaves. I originally potted the seedling into an Orchid Potting Mix and brought it inside for the Fall & Winter.  Recently, around mid-April, I transferred the seedling to a 5 gallon hydroponic system, with super-aeration and an 18 Watt LED (90 watt incandescent replacement). The intricate cellular detailing in the new medium-green leaves, is breathtaking for me.  It looks like microscopic cell structuring, without the microscope, and the plant is sprouting 8 brand-new leaflets.  The tree may have suffered several months of neglect, as a seedling (the seed was still attached when I put the plant on hydo).  However, I am inclined to believe that the tree/seedling is extremely healthy.  I have zero experience growing Mango trees, and have no idea what to expect.  How long will it be before this seedling becomes too large to handle and what can I do to accelerate fruit production ?    HCS-1
