Tropical Fruit Discussion / Alampur behavior in so cal

« on: September 12, 2015, 10:09:01 AM »

I have an alampur baneshan mango in so cal in a pot. For some reason it kept continuous flowering and have been doing so since november of last year. It finally set a fruitlet last month and i thought the flowering would be over. I just found it flowering again today. Is this normal behavior for alampur or is this a potential variety for mango to give more than one seasonal crop in so cal?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / when to pick valencia pride and alphonso mangos?

« on: July 28, 2014, 01:36:32 AM »

Got my first crop of valencia pride mangos and alphonso. I have previous only had Irwin from the tree which must be tree ripen until it's soft. My understanding is alphonso must be picked green and then ripen. But how could u tell that is ready for picking since it will look green. One of my VP mango fell and I took a picture of it. It definitely was not ripe so would appreciate any help regarding when to pick this mango.
