Fruit Development, Ripening & HarvestWhy should failed fruit in a trial harvest remain in the results?
If only the mangoes that ripen attractively are recorded, the trial overstates how reliable that picking stage was. Count fruit that stayed hard, deteriorated, or developed unacceptable internal condition as well as those that ate well. Keep the reasons separate rather than calling every failure immature. The useful outcome is the proportion delivering acceptable fruit under the documented handling conditions.
