Mango FAQ

Pests, Diseases & DisordersWhy might mango disease losses differ between windward and leeward island gardens?

The weather experienced during flowering can differ greatly across a small island. Persistent wetness favors anthracnose, while drier locations can still experience serious powdery mildew. Compare flowering dates and rain exposure before assuming that a neighbor's results prove a tree is unsuitable. A useful local record links symptoms with the actual bloom period, rather than relying on annual rainfall totals or the island's general tropical climate.
