Which mango would rate best in taste Coconut cream or E4 ?
Thanks Ed
Interesting. My tree gets a good bit of gypsum and it's atop a pile of limestone fill, but it still seems to get mild ripening issues (where the flesh around the seed is more ripe than the flesh near the skin) unless I pick it mature green.
Does yours have any tart to it when eaten fully yellow like that?
Nice looking maha btw.
The brownish liquid in the bottle is fish emulsion, like a fertilizer. It is really concentrated that you could probably smell it 30 feet away when applied. It is not the fish sauce that I have been using all my life on daily basis.
"But i dont see any thing about Powdery mildew on my tree . What is going on now is flowers withering with no sing of Powdery mildew at all . Is this another kind of Powdery mildew?"
Looks like cold damage, especially on the highest blooms. My tree showed the same damage after a short freeze last January in St. Pete.
exactly that was what happened to my tree it looks just like the pic u attached thanks alot Gambit .
But did u lose all the blooms ? Did try to do something to save your tree ?
Good picture Gambit.
The browned leaves and stem are frost damaged, and the drooping of the bloom spikes is presumably from cold stress. One can also see Anthracnose.
So Alex, "Mounds" was written on the mango and also said "M4", was it actually M4 or E4?
M-4. I didn’t write that.
thanks for clarifying. Wondering when E4 would be out in market for sale!
No damage at all, including my Carrie, Nam Doc Mai and Mahachanok.
Eating the skin of mangoes is stupid, plain and simple. There is no nutritive value to it and although it may contain slight amounts of fiber, it also contains substances on and in the skin that can cause severe skin reactions like dermatitis that is dangerous for many people. Making a video like that is reckless and many people could follow this foolish practice who no nothing about mangoes. The fiber is found in the mango itself with massive amounts of vitamin A so absolutely no need to eat the skin.
What can I say but pure ignorance. You could have just kept your mouth shut but you couldn’t help yourself could you.
