Growing a mango tree from a storebought mango ?

Question

So like I was cutting a mango and noticed a hole that lead to the middle, I teared the mango apart and pulled out this kewl seed that looks like a giant white bean.

How do I grow it into a tree ? And I live in the Mojave dessert will this be a problem? What kind of climate does the mango tree usually grow in?

How long does it take to grow into a kewl big tree liek this ?

Answer 1

A tree needs soil and water to grow. Growing a tree in the desert will be hard.

Trees as big as the first link will take  quite a few years to grow. They usually grow in a place where there is good soil and a good amount of water.

I think your tree will probably not be sucessful... but I wish you the best of luck.
