[@greatergood3706]

[@youngderks9499]

Chris and Marlys, thank you for this video. I am in Loxahatchee, buying mango trees to plant. Since this video is 3 yrs ago, can you go back to her film the mango field progress? Thanks.

[@guyveloz4382]

Surprising how well these mangoes do, all planted upon a freaking gigantic lawn.

Super helpful tracking

[@FIUPanther305]

Thank you!

[@thehuntfortruth]

It's people like you that make KZbin magical 🪄✨ thanks for this!

This is the first video I’ve EVER heard anyone say mangos do fine in standing water for 2-3 weeks. I’ve actually always been told the complete opposite. This is the best news I’ve heard Bc my front yard occasionally gets standing water and I’ve been holding off planting any mangoes there.

[@unconventionalme8048]

Being thatI'm growing mine in a greenhouse, I've listened this video probably a hundred times or more over the last year, through my ear buds as I'm working....lol, but I finally had chance watch it all the way through just now and I saw the list you kindly offered us at the end! THANK YOU!!! This is more helpful than you could imagine! Big hug!

[@garrycole9187]

Beautiful farm, thank you for the field trip.

[@TrulyTropical]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@agriperma]

Very informative and useful video. not everyone has the benefit of coastal breezes to help with anthracnose, knowing which varieties do well consistently in high humidity, ( and wet feet ) is important for those that live further inland. Chris, hope you can make another visit next season when fruit are on the tree.

[@TrulyTropical]

Glad you enjoyed the video! I hope we can video her grove when the trees are full of mangos. Time and energy are often in short supply when the mangos are most interesting.

[@Offshore1977]

Some of my highlights of my weekend mornings are to watch your videos. I guess an okay mango for one person is a wow mango for another. Thank you for producing these great videos.

[@TrulyTropical]

Thanks for watching! Yes, there are vastly different taste preferences

[@paulmctigue8445]

Wow it IS a paradise! Beautiful place, nice video and especially the editing it just keeps getting better!

[@TrulyTropical]

Thanks! This is a good video to watch when you want to get a break from the basement....

[@reyn66]

I would love to see follow-ups on her property and see how they have been doing, especially since her application of gypsum. Her success with certain varieties is very similar to varieties that do well in my area (polyembryonic) of southern California.

[@MsFishingdog]

very relaxing and fun video to watch. thanks to all of you for sharing. did she say how her harvest moon mango tree done down there.

[@TrulyTropical]

I think she only noted that it was a poor producer.

[@RepentanceGarden]

Chris Thank you so much for all the great videos you make, loaded with lots of amazing information!! Especially this one 😁

[@TrulyTropical]

Glad it was helpful! I love her big retaining wall so that her house and some of her plants stay high and dry.

[@xethal5665]

Thank you for this video! Great insight for growers in Western Palm Beach County!

[@TrulyTropical]

Glad it was helpful!

[@gulftoad]

I've had a nam doc mai and Valencia pride in the ground for about 6 years. Neither have flowered yet. I was sold a Hatcher and planted it at the same time. I get good fruit every year from it. I remember having buyer's remorse after reading about the Hatcher, but I am very happy with it. Good fruit is better than no fruit.

[@gulftoad]

Update a year later, Hatcher produced again. Also, the flavor is sweet and mildly fruity. My wife doesn't enjoy most mangoes, but she loves the Hatcher mango.

[@thehuntfortruth]

Glad to hear it! Thanks for updating us!

[@smokeydabeecharlescoleman8365]

Because your yard has different affects on trees, do they ever allow you try out new varieties in it ? Maybe as a control . I know you have said that growth habits and production can vary in locations.

[@TrulyTropical]

Since Walter lives about a mile away from me, Gary just needs his experience with the new varieties. I share my experiences with the older varieties I grow, which is somewhat different than Walter's collection.

[@smokeydabeecharlescoleman8365]

Thank you for your time. I love that you alter locations for assessments of varieties . It Gives me hope,lol.

[@TrulyTropical]

Glad it was helpful!

[@publiuszero79]

Can you elaborate on what she means by "clean" when referring to mangoes?

[@TrulyTropical]

"Clean" means that the fruit are not particularly susceptible to anthracnose, scab, scale or sooty mold.

[@lolshatter]

my orange essence is pretty clean growing next to a canal

[@snailsgarden3055]

Chris please ask Marlys how I may buy a grafted marlys mango tree pleeeese, I live nearby in Loxahatchee! Thank you!

[@theespinozagrove]

Thank you for the video what is the growth habit on M4 and 0-15 mango varieties

[@TrulyTropical]

O-15 is vigorous. M-4 is a bit less vigorous.

[@theespinozagrove]

K thank you

[@muhammedyaameensuliman8040]

Nelpitite all the way from south africa. Same one?

[@TrulyTropical]

Thanks for the info... 'Nelpetite' is correct. 2009 Curators choice at Fairchild... small mango, small productive tree

[@natanku1]

Loxahatchee, FL is only 10 miles from the Atlantic Ocean...

[@VeganChiefWarrior]

i have issues wth burying potting mixes into soil, im trying soil as potting soil vs compost atm, i figure the soil plants go into soil and the compost ones have to sit on top in mulch,

[@TrulyTropical]

Sometimes that works, it depends on how good your soil is. Good luck!

[@rickraub5448]

What variety does well in central fl.?

[@VeganChiefWarrior]

more mulch!
