Introduction to Planting Mangosteen TreesMangosteen trees have a wide adaptability to soil and are suitable for growing on sandy loam with good drainage, rich in organic matter and a pH value of 5-6.5. They prefer a humid environment and grow luxuriantly in tropical rainforests with an annual rainfall of 2000 to 2500 mm. Mangosteen has a lifespan of 70 years, but grows slowly. It is generally planted from February to May and is widely cultivated in tropical regions of Asia and Africa. Mangosteen trees bear fruit after several years of plantingAfter planting, the mangosteen tree needs to be cared for for 7-12 years before it will bloom and bear fruit. For grafted ones, it will bear fruit in 6 years. When its skin starts to turn red, it means it is beginning to mature. When planting mangosteen trees, you need to choose suitable soil. It is suitable to plant them in places with deep soil, convenient transportation and easy management. Dig a 30 cm deep pit, apply base fertilizer, and open drainage ditches. After planting, loosen the soil, water and fertilize in time. In addition, pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and pests. Grafted mangosteen tree blooms and bears fruitGrafted mangosteen trees need to be cared for for 6 years before they will bloom and bear fruit. Use grafting to make mangosteen bear fruit earlier. Use mangosteen branches that have already borne fruit for grafting. Choose to graft when the temperature is low and the air is dry. Potted mangosteen tree with fruitsPotted mangosteen trees can bloom and bear fruit, but their growth cycle is very long. It takes 7-10 years from planting to fruiting. If they are properly cared for and the environment is suitable, they will bear fruit around May to October. They are not suitable for planting in the north, and it is difficult to bear fruit even if placed indoors. Why doesn't the mangosteen tree bear fruit?Mangosteen is not tolerant to low temperatures, and the temperature must not be lower than 4 degrees, otherwise the plant cannot survive. In addition, mangosteen is a perennial tree species. It needs to be maintained for many years after planting before it can begin to benefit. The usual maintenance and management also has a great impact on its results. It is best to provide a warm, humid, rainless environment with rich organic matter and sandy loam with a pH value of 5-6.5. Key points for planting mangosteen treesMangosteen prefers a high temperature and humid environment. The most suitable temperature is between 25-35 degrees and the relative humidity is 80%. It can grow vigorously. It needs a weak light environment during the seedling stage and cannot tolerate direct sunlight. It needs to be shaded and take cold-proof measures during the low temperatures in winter. |
