Title: Is this a sign of a mango disease?
Post by: Samu on April 05, 2018, 10:28:06 PM

Hi friends,
Beside having issue with a large cracked trunk on my NDM mango - (discussed here recently: http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=27710.0 (http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=27710.0)) -
I also notice that some leaves of the "Golek" mango next to it showing this:

What is causing this and should I be concern about it? If so, any suggested remedy?
A bit of background: Bought this tree as 1 G at the same time and place where I got my NDM tree over 3 years ago in a nursery in EL Monte, Ca. Only bear a single fruit to maturity last year, no flower this year. (The NDM never flowered).

Hello Sam,

Great question.  I have a young Manila Mango that also shows some of the same.
The tree is doing well though aside of that.

Sorry for not having better pictures.  I do notice that yours are in the center of the leaves.  As for mine,  more on the outside edges.
