Mango FAQ

Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingHow should the curved mango kernel be oriented when sowing it without the stone?

Published mango propagation guidance places the concave edge downward with the kernel covered lightly by the medium. Handle it gently and accommodate any root that has already emerged rather than forcing the kernel into a prescribed position. The purpose is orderly establishment without injury. Keep drainage and moisture suitable; orientation cannot compensate for a decaying kernel or saturated medium.
