Mabye you have Ataulfo/Honey? Can you tell me ripenig time is like Glenn or later? It is polyembryonic. Thx a lot.

Hi Adam, i haven’t eaten Ataulfo grown locally here in South Florida but i am sure some people grow it. I have tasted it from grocery store, imported and treated and still was pretty sweet tasting. I have heard it grows better in south California.

Do you think it is possible to keep a CAC mango around 15 feet in height and still have it be productive. I've heard that when you prune a tree to keep it small, it doesn't produce as well because it wants to put its energy into the vegetative growth that was cut away?

@growpuravida 3 жыл бұрын

Yes you are right, too much pruning will stimulate vegetative growth. Mangoes flower and bear fruit in lateral branches so you can always cut back vertical leader branch 3-4 ft every year. The tree will then use another branch as leader branch and cut that next year, so alternating leader branch every other year you can shape the tree to be low and bushy. It will also open the canopy for better air flow. I prefer making them dense from 4ft upwards to allow air flow under the tree canopy. Yes it can fruit at 15ft height.

Thank you very much for your detailed explanation. I was weary about planting a CAC Mango tree in the ground but now I would like to try and tame and shape this vigorous tree to its potential. Did you know that in Vietnam they call this the Master Sand mango? My guess is that it does well in sandy or coastal areas?

@growpuravida 3 жыл бұрын

Interesting info, I didn't know that. let me know how you train your tree and how it does. Performance in different soil conditions will mostly be affected by the rootstock, different rootstocks are used in sand vs clay; the common rootstock for FL (turpentine) doesn't perform well in CA with its clay soil, so since CAC is mono I am assuming they use appropriate rootstock for sandy areas in Vietnam?

@alexanderk7638 3 жыл бұрын

@@growpuravida that is very insightful. I didn't even think about if it was mono or poly. It being mono would necessitate it being grafted. Makes you wonder what different rootstocks are used in different mango growing areas of the world. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
