Also try to clean of some of the flesh off of the pit with sandpaper or a chisel. Plant the seed in potting soil bought at Cosco or plant shops. They enjoy sunlight or humidity. Good luck with your mangos! =D. To speed things up a little try soaking it in water for a couple days. Also try to clean of some of the flesh off of the pit with sandpaper or a chisel.

Growing from a seed takes at least 5 yrs to produce fruits while planting from a grafted tree usually takes 1-3 years to do so. Iam,

You can put it in a shady part of your lawn first for a couple of weeks then ease it to a more sunny part once it's grown accustomed to light.

About three weeks ago I planted a mango seed in a plastic flora holder, covered with some tissues and watered every day. It is now about 8 inches tall, with about 6 leaves and I have planted into a bigger pot. I will pick out a place in the yard for when it gets too big for the pot. Just a question, which do they like best, a place in the sun or in the shade? It is my first tree I am growing and if its a success I am going to do a lot more trees. Can you help me?

Sadly only one grew and is now two feet tall with four huge leaves. Doesn't seem to nbe sprouting any more leaves tho? I'm using crappy soil from my back garden (v v clay based). What knd of soil do they like? I know nothing about them just got lucky!! Good luck to all...glad I'm not the only crazy one! PS also grow lemons from seed and orange trees from seed.
