Not only that, but you receive a lot of ocean-born rain that contains significant amounts of Nitrogen. So the horticulturists at Fairchild correctly advise a feeding program for mangos that is primarily potash and little to zero nitrogen to the locals. However we have people here on the west coast that read that recommendation and don't understand why their Mangos (e.g., in Fallbrook CA) don't perform so well.
