Anthracnose on my Mangos?

[bbates123]

Planted two 15gal mango trees about a year and a half ago...Pickering and a Sweet Tart.   Both of them started with lots of fruit but most of it fell in the winds we had this spring in SW Florida.  What remained were a handful of mangos on both trees that look terrible.  The leaves don't look good either.  I suspect they both have anthracnose.  Does that appear to be a correct diagnosis?  Once the last fruits are off I was planning on pruning off the non-healthy looking branches and spraying with a fungicide.  Or, do I not need to worry about spraying the trees until they're flowering again?

That's some heavy Anthracnose on the fruit,I thought open windy cape wouldn't have so much.The leaves look typical for cape soil and water .High ph soil,check your irrigation water for salts.

Should I be spraying the plant now or just wait till the trees flower again?

Is the tree getting fertilized?

[bbates123]

Yes, I try to fertilize them at least every other month...and add mulch.

[bbates123]

spray it now

Suggestions for type/brand of spray I should use?

thats a nice lawn, are your sprinklers hitting the tree? Could that be contributing to the fungus?

Thank you!  The sprinklers are hitting the trees but only at the trunks.

You're definitely doing something wrong —perhaps too much nitrogen and/or not providing your plants with essential micro-elements. I have received a lot of water here as well and I also have sprinklers, but my trees are very healthy and my mangos have no signs of anthracnose. Take a look at my pickerings and mallikas.
