DISTANCE OF PLANTING
 
Distance of planting is very critical for fruit trees that are not responsive to pruning (like carabao mango). Many though that the 5 x 5 meters distance of mango planting in Thailand could also be applicable for Carabao mango. As a result, many nurseries recommended a 5 x 5 meters distance in order to increase sales. But before a Carabao mango bears fruit which usually takes place after 5 to 6 years, the crown are already overlapping each other, making the trees unproductive. The owner will then be forced to cut in-between trees to make the planting distance at 10 x 10 meters.

 A closer distance is only applicable to imported mangoes like chokanan thai mango because they start bearing fruits at an early stage. Prolific mangoes grow slowly since the growth hormone is concentrated in the fruits. Besides, imported varieties of mango respond to pruning.

There are fruit trees that can be planted close to one another. Rambutan can be a nurse tree for lanzones, mangosteen and durian.
