Add a little Sunshine
to keep your plants looking their best
By Ed Jones, the Booster Guy
...Just like people, a little sunshine goes a long way in keeping them
happy. It is usually easier to keep a plant healthy than it is to fix it when
it is not well. Proper plant nutrition is often times the issue. The good
news is that it is easy to keep your plants looking good by following proper
nutrition practices...
...Feeding your plants with micronutrients that they just don't get in
regular fertilizers can prevent deficiencies. Let's get started on a regular
program of using foliar sprays to help keep your plants looking their best...
We recommend using three products in combination - the Complete SUNSHINE Microelement Supplement Kit that consists of:
We are recommending a foliar spray once per week to maintain optimal
health conditions. This is based on recent studies done in Ukraine by the scientist who invented Sunshine Boosters products... Continue reading to see an easy treatment schedule that will provide
your plants with:
- Increased photosynthetic activity
- Increased insect and disease resistance
- Reduced mineral toxicity
- Improvement of nutrient imbalance
- Enhanced drought and frost tolerance
- Enhanced plant growth
Sunshine Boosters are developed in Ukraine
and manufactured in the USA. We support Ukraine fight for freedom. All
profits from these fertilizers will be donated to support our Team in Ukraine.
Q: I love your tropical fruit selection and I wish I lived in a warmer climate. Is
there any fruit tree that can be happy indoors during winter and have fruit? I
am not expecting a big crop but it would be fun to have a small piece of
tropics at home. I don't have much gardening experience, can you suggest something
easy for a start?
A: Several tropical fruit trees can be grown indoors, in pots,
providing bright light that is necessary for flowering and setting fruit. Among
them are many varieties of Bananas,
Guavas,
Annonas and tropical Cherries - these can be easily maintained in containers. Even dwarf
varieties of
Avocado and Mango
are good candidates for indoor culture. You can bring containers indoors for
winter and take outside into full sun during warm months so your plants can
store lots of energy in Summer.
The easiest fruit tree for indoor culture that doesn't require bright light
and can be grown indoors year around is a Coffee tree. Start with it, it is on sale today! Once you gain some experience, you can upgrade to
a Chocolate tree!
Remember, all container grown plants need balanced nutrition program. It
can be easily provided with Sunshine Boosters your around. For fruit trees, just add some Sunshine C-Cibus Crop Booster to your cart.

Grow Food Not Lawns - this is the theme for our Garden party. But it's much more than that. It's a philosophy and a
state of mind. One that more and more people are adopting as the world's food
supply continues to dwindle and get more expensive...
Like all things plant and garden related, each of us can adopt this state
of mind at whatever level we're capable of and comfortable with. Many of our
customers just want to start small and see what it's all about. After all, the
world of tropical plants can be more than just beautiful, it can be
sustaining as well!
Growing your own food is more than just about price, it's also about
quality, choices and availability. As you watch the choices, and quality of
store bought food go down and prices continue to go up, maybe it's time to grow
more of your own food?
Fun Facts
- A mature mango tree can produce 200 to 300 fruit per year - A single avocado tree is capable of producing 500 avocados in one
year - A mature papaya plant can produce as many as 100 fruits per
growing season - One longevity spinach plant can provide you with a fresh supply of
healthy spinach leaves all the time!
At Top Tropicals we offer a wide selection of fruit, including mango and avocado, and even spinach to get you started and to continue down the road on your own
self sustaining journey. Even better, to help you with your food project, we
have not only added to our varieties, but we have reduced prices on many

...Well, you did it didn’t you? You love fresh mangoes, don’t you?
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to pick your own mango fresh off a tree in
your back yard?
So you bought a mango tree hoping to do just that. You are in USDA growing
zone 10 or 11 aren't you? If so, you should have no problems with weather
extremes other than possibly an occasional frost in zone 10A. If you can cover
your tree, you will not likely see any damage. But what if you are a little
further north and you have decided to try your luck on the magnificent mango
fruit tree? Mangoes are a tropical fruit tree best grown in tropical zones with
temperatures that stay above 40F. If you are in zone 9A or 9B, you may still
have luck growing a mango tree...
New Video: What to do when your mango tree freezes?

comes!
In this video we explain how to properly take care of your mango tree after
a freeze or frost. We give you step by step directions to ensure your tree
has the best chance for survival.....
