Last year my sister planted a mango seed from a store bought mango (so I have no idea what variety it is!), and once it started growing, she gave it to me. That was last July. It grew well for the next couple months (it was in a small pot on my windowsill), but then seemed to stop growing and the leaves started going brown
I thought maybe it just needed a bigger pot, so I moved it to a little bit larger of a pot, but it didn't seem to help
I am wondering if it was just the cold and lack of much sunlight that stopped its growth? I had a couple leaves fall off, and the stalk appears to have had a split down it, as there's a hard brown like running down it. Now, I'm seeing what appears to be new growth in places, which is very exciting as it means its still alive! But I'm wondering what to do about the brown leaves? And is it ok to keep it indoors? Or should I move it outside at some point?
I realize it'll be hard to "diagnose" the problem without seeing pictures, but I can't seem to get the post an image link to work
If it helps, the brown appears to have started on the edges of the leaves and has worked it's way toward the middles. I looked under the leaves and there a tons of tiny white specks, but I don't have a magnifying glass so I can't tell if its bugs or dust
Oh and I live in Canada, and it gets very hot in the summer (100+ degrees F) and very cold in the winter (well below freezing).
