1….If you want to grow in a pot then a minimum of 25*25 inches of length & width and maximum size depends on you.
2….You can plant at any time of the year, but the most preferable time is June to July in low rainfall areas and October to November in high rainfall areas.
3….Manures and fertilizers should be applied 2 months before the flowering seasons. Fertilizers are applied 45 to 90 cm away from the trunk.
4….No watering is done 30 days before harvest. 5….Mango trees need higher doses of nitrogen when young, but after they begin to bear fruit, they need less. At that time, they need higher doses of phosphorus and potassium, which promote flowering and fruiting.
6…..Use a commercial organic fertilizer with a high percentage of potassium, such as 5-8-10, for fruit-bearing trees, or apply these nutrients with organic materials.
7….Compost is a good organic source of both phosphorus and potassium. You can also use rock phosphate, guano, blood meal, or bone meal to provide phosphorus, and seaweed to provide potassium.
