Instructions d'entretien

Mangosteen trees require a warm, humid environment with indirect bright light. They thrive in consistently wet soil and prefer moderate temperatures. High humidity is essential for their growth. Regular watering is crucial, but the soil should be well-draining to prevent waterlogging.

Récolte

Mangosteen fruits are typically ready for harvest about 5 to 6 years after planting, depending on growing conditions. The fruits should be harvested when they are fully ripe, which is indicated by a deep purple color. To harvest, gently twist or cut the fruit from the tree, taking care not to damage the branches. It is important to handle the fruits carefully to avoid bruising. Harvesting is usually done during the dry season to prevent fungal infections. Post-harvest, the fruits should be stored in a cool, dry place and consumed or processed within a few days to maintain their quality.

Sol

Mangosteen trees prefer loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be well-draining yet able to retain moisture. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal. Mulching can help retain soil moisture and provide additional nutrients.

Engrais

A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is recommended. Fertilize the tree every few months during the growing season to ensure it receives the necessary nutrients for optimal growth.

Rempotage

Repotting is necessary when the tree outgrows its current container. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh, nutrient-rich soil. Repotting should be done carefully to avoid damaging the roots.

Propagation

Mangosteen can be propagated through seeds or grafting. Seeds should be planted in a warm, humid environment and kept consistently moist. Grafting is a more reliable method but requires skill and experience.

Taille

Pruning is essential to maintain the tree's shape and remove any dead or diseased branches. Prune during the dormant season or after the fruiting period. Use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts.

Toxicité

Mangosteen is not toxic to pets or humans. The fruit is edible and highly prized for its flavor. However, the rind is inedible and should be discarded.

Supplémentaire

Mangosteen trees are sensitive to cold and drought. They require a stable, warm environment to thrive. Regular monitoring and care are essential to ensure the tree's health and productivity.
