I understand for best taste of the Mallika mango it should be picked at mature green and put in a cardboard box (the camel dung method is not an option) and kept at room temp to ripen (usually a week or two), and usually ripe from June-July.
How do you know/tell when it is "mature green" and ready to pick?
I have my first ever fruit (and only) on my potted Mallika mango, probably still awhile away from being the "mature green" stage, but would like to know how to tell.
Just wait until there is a hint of color change?
Here is a picture from this morning.
Have also heard that they will ripen on the tree, but want to save that experiment till I have more fruits.
Thanks for any info.
