Hi folks, hope you had great holidays. I was wondering if there are magic tricks to force bloom on mango seedling. I have a seedling that is now 8-yr old and wondering what I can do to make it to bloom this year?

Any thoughts on someone who has been successful? Its a Lemon Zest seedling.

one thing I noticed is whether we have seedlings or grafted plants, they do well leading to summer heat. if we tinker with them in Summer like graft more onto a nice flushing tree, it for some reason start getting diseases. I lost 3 healthy ones this summer, and I have two seedlings that were grafted Last October are doing great. planning on not touching them any further. Also, refrain pruning them when temps are consistently hitting above 100 in So Cal.

I agree with sentiment of drip emitters clogging issue. once you have a large yard with over 400 drips, it becomes a nightmere to maintain them. I prefer adjustable sprayers, although expensive it will payoff itself if it can save you few plants from dying and they are easy to see how well they function. Another good thing is when mulch gets hit with water from top, it helps it breakdown faster, specially in CA where we dont get much rain at all. I am planning out my 3/4 acre garden at my new home and I do plan on limiting the use of emitter drips to where I can physically see them like in vegetable raised beds. Also I dont like soaker tubes/emitter tubes as they clog up with salts build-up. its another nightmere to maintain and you only find the problem when your plant has already suffered.

Cherimoya tend to have residual energy that would push from scion initially. Compatibility may be an issue, although I have not personally experimented it. Keen to find out more about it.

I cant tell from your forum name who you are in my emails.

wait till Wed/Thu so I can first process what I have to ship committed ones. Email me your interest at behlgarden@gmail.com

Update: customs cleared and tapes are with the dealer, getting shipped today to me. Hopefully if I get before Friday I will ship over the weekend or early next week.

yeah- no response over a week- not even an acknowledgement of payment- contacted via forum, email and facebook- very happy to send you scions etc- please acknowledge receipt of payment

I am very busy and cant acknowledge payment from 100's of people. Like I said, once I have tapes arrive and shipped, you will get notification. If there are issues I will reach out to you via email. For you to post comments like above and try to degrade someone is not right, I will be more than happy to refund your payment if that's what you want.

You didn't responded to my email 😪

glad I posted, I found your email in spam. replied today.

From what I see a roll is no more that 12$ or some give you 2 rolls and a knife for 16$ shipped to your door. For me it's a no Brainer and very affordable.

you have no idea what you are talking about. if you buy 10,000 rolls you will get lowest price of $16 plus.
