After I got rid of another threat recently I really thought I saved my tree again. But apparently, it's not to be.
I remember getting rid of those pesky weaver ants which love to crawl all over me when I tried to pick those mangoes off the tree.Lesson learnt. Never get rid of weaver ants completely from your mango tree. They actually protect your tree from borers and other pests.
i chopped down my mango tree . it is too late once it has reached this stage. plant a new one. it will cost a bomb if u ask somebody over to chop it down for u. mine was three storeys high :(
ReplyDeleteI wanted to cut it but decided to wait until the dry season is over. We still need the shade. My plan was to cut a few branches at a time into short pieces and throw them into the dumpster. If I chop the whole thing in one go, the MPSP guys will come after me for some coffee... :(

ReplyDeletewhen you see roots gently saw them from the beneath and plant where ever you want to same method can be applied for the weak marcotted branches to strengthen
