Finding light for Kent Mango in your home

Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Kent Mango in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Kent Mango
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Kent Mango after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Mango leaf troubles Hello! I’ve been growing a mango from a seed since this summer, very proud of it. Unfortunately, I’ve been noticing its leaves have been drying out a bit, and I was wondering if anyone might have some ideas what might be going wrong with it. It typically lives outside (Florida) but this cold wave has pushed it onto the shelf out of reach of the cat. Any help would be appreciated, have a great day!

I sprouted my mango from a seed and it went very well and very fat but it’s been like this for the past two months and hasn’t grown new leaves or nothing else. Is it a problem or just a normal thing? Should I keep it in the water or put it in a pot? #Mango
