The Tropical Fruit Forum

Interesting.  Cool to see how soon it fruits.  Good luck!

I'd remove stake.  Getting late in season to trim but is it that tall to need stake?
Not a fan of stakes, i learned after damaged orange sherbet & fruit cocktail which died.
My thoughts.

After these daily sideways downpour inches cease, i'm thinking besides overdue foliar nutritional & bug spray (weevils eating the heck outta everything), a fungicide application would be wise.

Standing water side note, this is 1st time this yr Kent & probably Cogshall has it.
Last yr lasted a few days with zero issues.  Actually i threw some fert & gypsum in before it dried up.
I'll do that tomorrow.

Sounds like my cheap amazon thing i put drops of juice from dish in & look thru isn't accurate? 

After digging last yrs calendar out, realized 2025 hanging by desk is the one lol don't make that mistake.
I see I wrote nothing down other then spraying grass near trees with azoxystrobin.  Less then 1oz.
Determined fungus was cause of dead spots & it worked.

Sulfur i sprayed for powdery mildew a few times & learned 1 tablespoon per gal is enough.  It's 99% S.

Copper sprayed a couple times too late, after seeing anthracnose.

Just thought- 2025 Mango thread might have what & when i sprayed!  Will check later.

M4 got anthracnose the worst, clipped almost everything off & flowered again so not total loss.
Edit- Phoenix had anthracnose bad and all bb size mangos fell off.  Tree hasn't given me any fruit yet.
Clean trees were Pickering, Cogshall, Maha, Raw Honey.  Kent set lots of good fruit go figure.

Plant, i used regular hydrogen peroxide 3% to approx 5 parts water on mower damaged mango trunk and seemed to help heal.
Kept it wet a few minutes & then washed off with water because it foamed some.

cbss, how were your mangos with test showing potassium low, calcium & zinc off the chart?
And was this pre or post harvest?  Thanks!

M4 fruit i never seen do anything but get green & black spots.  I saw leaves shriveled with spots like fungus?  Weevils love it too.  Not trouble free tree for me but grows like a weed & tastes good so it's a keeper.
Saved my last M4 & Peach Cobbler (in fridge) for my parents here visiting.  They loved them.

CC, i suppose if they weren't crazy $ they'd taste better too
I've eaten a dozen of a few varieties & almost none taste the same from same tree.  I don't like sharing for that reason.  And more for me lol.

M4 i let get a tad overripe.

Peach Cobbler.  Was on counter 10 days or so, waited till it wrinkled a bit.  My goodness!
Make sugar syrup, dip in a sweet peach & you got it.
M4 in background wasn't ready but ate it next.  As i ate it, stared at PC skins in sink.
When done with M4, i rinsed PC skins & scraped every bit left with my teeth

Raw Honey (last 1) sitting on my counter.  I disagree with Bombay likeness, based on tasting vids of Bombay.  I never had 1.
Raw Honey to me tastes like plain ol honey but less sweet.  It's my least fav outta all i planted but it's good enough to stay put.
It's good (for me) as far as disease problems.  None really.
My experience.

1 of my last 2 Pickerings just now.  Was great, ate all but what ya see lol.
CC- yes your reviews are cool.
