In our experiments section of La Huertina De Toni we love to germinate seeds that fall into our hands. On other occasions we have germinated an avocado, a lemon, a pistachio, a chestnut and an acorn. Today we wanted to experiment with the mango, a very summery fruit that is not only sweet but also very fresh, so we are going to explain an infallible method for the seed to germinate.
The mango, although we all imagine it to be a tropical fruit, is native to the Indian subcontinent and Indochina. Later it was introduced in countries with tropical climates with very good results, although it can also be grown in regions with temperate and Mediterranean climates.
The fruit has the seed inside it, protected by what we popularly call the bone, so we must start by removing this protection from the seed so that we can access it and make it germinate much sooner. Although it seems very difficult, in it we will teach you the easiest way to do it and that the seed suffers as little as possible and we do not break it.
After this we must do as with all seeds: so that they germinate we must provide them with the ideal environment, which is nothing more than good humidity, but without exceeding it because it can rot. We must provide it with darkness and a good temperature that really inside the house is more than enough for a seed to begin to germinate. There are many methods to provide these conditions, it could even be buried directly in a pot, but with the method of the video what we do is advance the days in which the seed sprouts.
Finally, once it germinates we will plant it in a pot with some depth so that the roots develop well and vertically, you can see all this and the previous steps in the video, which we hope will be of great use.
Enjoy the experience!
