😒 If a cat likes you, you know. If he doesn't, you know that, too
"Cats are different, though. A cat won't curry favor even if it's in their best interests to do so. A cat can't be a hypocrite. If a cat likes you, you know. If he doesn't, you know that, too." - Stephen King, "L.T.'s Theory of Pets"
🍑 Our Peach trees are in full bloom now. Early Spring started in January this year in Florida!
🍑 You can grow peaches, nectarines, apricots and plums in Florida, provided you choose low-chill varieties. These have been developed specifically for subtropical regions like Central and South Florida, where traditional temperate varieties struggle due to insufficient chill hours.
Q: Is there any way to make a mango tree set more
fruit? My mango trees bloomed like crazy last year but most of the flowers
dropped and I had only a few fruit. What do I need to do to get more fruit?
A: Mango trees flower from late Winter to Spring,
with the peak blooming season varying based on variety. During this time,
mango trees produce hundreds of small, fragrant flowers in large panicles. A
healthy mango tree can produce anywhere from 500 to 2,000 flowers per panicle.
However, only a small fraction of the flowers will be successfully pollinated
and develop into fruit, depending on the tree's size and health.
To support healthy flowering and fruit set, mango trees need dry
weather, as excessive moisture can inhibit pollination and fruit development. During
flowering period, it's important not to overwater, as the tree is less
active in water uptake.
Avoid dry fertilizers during flowering since the tree is focused on
reproduction rather than vegetative growth. Continue applying Sunshine Boosters Mango Tango liquid fertilizer to support the tree's
overall health and vigor which will encourage fruit quantity and quality.
Sunshine Boosters deliver essential nutrients in optimum amounts, proportionally
to water intake.
Ensuring a dry, sunny environment and mild fertilizer Mango Tango will
help the tree set fruit successfully.
