KIETT has some spots

[strkpr00]

I have noticed this on a lot of different mango tree leaves, my KIETT has been in the ground about 10mos. and has it on the bark. I am concerned.



i do see a little scale. Can anybody tell me what is that white stuff?

I think its from the Scale and or Black sooty mold...I get those white stuff when I find scale and or black sooty mold on my mango trees...I think you can spray with Neem or Horticulatural oil...BUT be very careful not to spray them in the sun...I usally spray mine in the shade in the early morning or even better in the early evening so it will have 10-12 hours to dry...I wouldn't use it if the temps are forecast to be above 85 degrees...good luck!

Yup don't spray neem on bright hot days.. I did and this was the result

it being overcast today I sprayed them with some insecticidal soap, maybe the salts can dry them up before the rain of the cold front arrives, I did buy some neem oil for cooler days, if that doesn't work out comes the poison.
