Soil, Fertilizer & WateringCan household-softened water be assumed better for irrigating mangoes?
Some household softeners exchange calcium and magnesium for sodium. The water may form less scale while introducing a less desirable sodium load for irrigation. Check the treatment type and test the water actually delivered to the trees. A household definition of soft water does not establish crop suitability, and the untreated source may need a separate horticultural assessment.
