When we bought our house, there also was included an initial setup of the garden, including a Mango Tree. It came, tiny, with three mangos on. One of them fell down and got rotten but two of them, we could eat and they were great! [ATTACH=CONFIG]115638[/ATTACH] So I was hoping for a good harvest of mangos every now and then (the old, big tree at my in-laws is always having plenty of them!) but unfortunately, this stubborn tree put all its powers in producing leaves and branches. Here it is still at a nice stage, but ever since, it grew up to more than five meters high, already starting to threaten the satellite dish on the roof of our car park. [ATTACH=CONFIG]115639[/ATTACH] Asking friends about how to make this tree produce mangos and not only shadow (which also is very welcomed, by the way!), I was told to cut it by 90% and then, sweet mangos would appear. [ATTACH=CONFIG]115640[/ATTACH] BOLLOCKS!!! Still, the tree is growing like hell and I alredy had to cut it for a second time - leaves, branches and shadow, but no mangos! Btw, same goes for neighbors' tree, just without being cut. Even my sweet wife, who definitely has a green hand, did not find a solution. So does anyone have the 100% (well, at least 90%) hint how to make this unduly thing grow mangos??? Any helpful answers highly appreciated (well, also not so helpful ones as long as they are funny )! Well, somehow, the pics are not appearing, only the link to them! What did I do wrong?
