Fruit Development, Ripening & HarvestWhat causes narrow rubbing scars on mangoes still hanging in the canopy?
Fruit can be marked by repeated contact with branches, other fruit, or rough surfaces. Examine the position of the scar against nearby objects and consider whether wind makes contact more frequent. Photograph the fruit before moving it, since the original contact point may otherwise be lost. Use the pattern when reviewing branch arrangement and picking access after harvest.
