Mango FAQ

Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingWhat is the benefit of removing the mango seed husk before sowing?

Removing the husk permits direct inspection of the kernel and is used in mango propagation practice. The advantage is lost if opening the stone cuts or crushes the seed. Work on a stable surface with a tool you can control, keeping hands away from its path. For a nursery comparison, record whether stones were opened so any difference in emergence is evaluated against the actual preparation method.
