How long does it take for a mango tree to bear fruit?

Mango trees bear fruit after several years of planting

Mango trees like high temperatures and are not cold-resistant. The most suitable growth temperature is 15-35℃. They have a certain drought resistance. The plants are generally planted from June to August. The main production areas are Yunnan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian and other provinces.

Reasons why mango trees do not bear fruit

1. Mango trees are very sensitive to climate during their flowering period. If the temperature is too low or there is too much rain, the pollination rate of the plant will drop significantly. If pollination is unsuccessful, the plant will naturally not bear fruit.

2. Before flowering, mango trees are easily infected by powdery mildew, gummosis, sooty mold, as well as pests such as thrips and flat-beaked leafhoppers, which can also cause the plants to not bear fruit.

Mango tree planting techniques and key points

1. Garden cultivation

When building an orchard, all weeds and trees need to be cleared away, the land must then be fully cultivated and plowed thoroughly, and finally the land must be turned over and dried before mango trees can be planted.

2. Digging holes for fertilization

It is necessary to dig planting holes for the plants in advance according to the planting density and apply enough basal fertilizer in them. Generally, the size of the planting holes should be about 70*70*70 cm.
