Flowering & PollinationShould overhead sprinklers wet mango flowers during bloom?

Direct irrigation toward the root zone rather than repeatedly soaking flower clusters. Wetting flowers adds exposure that is unnecessary for supplying the roots and can complicate disease management. Check where sprinklers actually throw water after the canopy changes or equipment is moved. If flowers are already wet from rain, the useful adjustment is to avoid adding another avoidable wetting cycle, while still meeting the tree's soil-moisture needs.
