Have a BBQ featuring venison.

I wasn’t expecting or didn’t notice it was projected to be around 32* degrees here in PSL tomorrow around sunrise. What should I do with 3+ 7’ mango trees that have bubblers on the irrigation system. I am thinking of putting pots around the trunk and running the bubblers. Not sure what to do with my other small Lychee, small Jabotacabas, and a few small banana trees. I have an irrigation system I could turn on but it won’t be able to consistently cover all the trees.  Should I wrap the trunks with towels or blankets? Just not sure what to do to protect the trees.

Planted a few strawberry plants less than a month or so ago. The critters started getting at them so I figured it was time for me to pick the first crop. They are very tasty, I don’t know why I haven’t planted these in years past. Oh well, no better time than right now to plant them.

Sounds cool

As mentioned above, these aluminum tags are great to fill the need. The metal is soft enough to indent the with normal writing from a ball point pen. 50 of them for $10. Really hard to beat.

There's black on the branches.. so it's not anthracnose..? That's good news! I'll take some more pics when I get home. I use a citrus granule every other month, I think it's for Avacodo 6-6-6. This year I started adding cow manure, top soil, and mulch every six months for some food too.

Switch to a high quality palm fertilizer.  Do not add top soil or cow manure and make sure the crown roots are not buried.  Keep an area about 18" out from the trunk ckear of mulch and then you can apply tye mulch from that distance out yo a 3' - 4' mark.  Best mulch to use is grade A pure cypress mulch.  Avoid eucalyptus and any died mulch.

Rob, Is this a good idea for all mango trees? I typically use Citrus fertilizer.

I'm in SFL with 3 relatively young Citrus trees planed within last 12 months. Is there anything one can do to prevent Greening?

Looks like a squirrel has gotten into it.

Same issue here. Maybe they took the seed to plant their own. In a few years I'll raid the woods and eat theirs and not clean up the evidence.

I've only tried "Mamey" once, it was good. I'm going to be on the lookout for one to plant.
