Seems this disease doesn't only affect mangosThis appears to be the same thing on jackfruit and also on soursop, perhaps anonasI'm going to have to start spraying my jackfruitI've lost three of them this season.
yep !! I've had to start spraying my jacks and soursops with fungicide. Jury still out on what's up with the annonas. I feel like it could have to do with the seed borer, which opens a pathway for disease. We've been bagging the annonas. Rollinia has also had a terrible problem with fungus / bacterial infection, likely due to seed borers. Growing in FL can be a pain in the neck!Quote from: Capt Ram on April 22, 2020, 02:49:01 AMSeems this disease doesn't only affect mangosThis appears to be the same thing on jackfruit and also on soursop, perhaps anonasI'm going to have to start spraying my jackfruitI've lost three of them this season.
Although that disease on the Jackfruit may well respond to the same spray regimen, it is unlikely to be the same bacteria that attacks the mangos.
Jeff,When you say you're bagging them are you using plastic bags of some sort to encase them, or are you using the fine screen type bagsQuote from: Cookie Monster on April 22, 2020, 11:21:21 AMyep !!
