Glossary

Up-pot is the hyphenated form of up pot, meaning to transplant a container-grown plant into a larger pot. Both spellings describe the same container-growing operation rather than a separate propagation technique. Mangoes need a stable container, drainage holes, and a growing medium that holds useful moisture without staying saturated. Repot in suitable growing weather where possible, protect disturbed roots from drying, and reassess irrigation while the tree establishes in the new volume.
