Growing Mango plant in a glass tube.

This process may seem like an uphill task but it actually is the opposite! Start a Mango seed wrapped in soft damp tissue and place on its flat side at the bottom of the tube. Seal the tube at the top with a plastic and a rubber band. This gives the prospective plant the atmosphere of the tropics, its original habitat. In 2-3 days a pink root shoots out! In a few weeks the soft delicate plant finds its way out of the same seed. The glass tube steams up from time to time. Place on a windowsill or close to a lot of natural light but not necessarily direct sunlight.
