Here's my germination setup. I put them against a south-facing wall in my backyard. The plastic bags are to retain humidity, and I poked some air holes in them.. The nighttime lows are still in the 50s, should I bother bringing them in at night?

They will do better with bottom heat of 70F to 75F.

Unfortunately, I don't have a heating pad...

Something seems wrong with my mango seedling, cant push normal new leaves, all new growth is undevelopped, I ll try to take a pic tomorrow. Maybe if I would keep it out of sun?

One of my mango seeds has mold on it, and the bud broke off because of mold. The other one is doing fine though, and I think it's trying to push out the bud! :D

"Choc anon" mango purchased from Erickson Farm as a 3 gallon plant August 2011.

Yes and many home owners grow mango's in Southern CA. Maybe this guy does not know what he is :0517:talking about

My late season Haden harvest. Really nice flavor this year!

Will mangos ripen off the tree?

How early can you pick them?

yes the will ripen all almost any stage.

Ha ha ha ! That’s a funny story! Because so many people here in South Fla have Mango and never fertilize them . They can have huge trees as shown in the story. that do not produce any fruit. Then for some odd reason they buy fertilizer??? WAMMO fruit the following year!
This last year a person called me to tell me her Mango tree has never fruited ! It’s 9 years old she said! So I went looked at the soil which had been a lawn . I asked how often she fertilized her grass “ NEVER” was her reply its always green.. I used house hold dish soap on the soil to help the water drain into the soil . returned 14 days later and added NPK and more soap. The tree responded buy turning GREEN ha ha ha I trimmed all the ends of the branches “clipping “ the ends off . This was in September The following April she had blooms and the tree fruited . Had she not been such a cheap @$$ and added more fertilizer she would have produced more blooms.
Oh I also removed “by hand” as many of the dark leaves I could ..
Type of Mango tree was Fairchild
30 feet high aprox

...WAMMO....soap...NPK...mango...bloom....green....
to much for me....
