Honest Abe,Do your lawn sprinklers hit your mangos' leaves? It looks like mineral deposits from water.
Guanabanus,They are in the same soil when purchased at the nursery(sand woodchips, etc). One of them I repotted with peat/perlite and I have not fertilized them. Also have a question about anthracnose. How to treat it? I read to spray with copper fungicide...
Any help is appreciated. Sad to know that these are acting up as I bought these from a reputable nursery in FL not to long ago...Should've looked at the leaves more closely before buying them.

I read to spray with copper fungicide...I dont see any anthracnose on the leaves in that picture. Also, unless the tree came to you with it, not sure you woukd have any issues in Tennessee. If you dont need to, dont spray it.
Perhaps deficient in Boron and Potassium--- I am not at all confident about that.It hasn't been splashed with deck cleaner, has it?
A monthly application on a small mango in a 3-gal. pot: one level teaspoon, well spread over most of the soil surface, but not touching the trunk. Rounded up teaspoon if the plant is over 2 feet tall.
