Fruit Development, Ripening & HarvestMust fresh and dried mango sample weights use the same units?
Yes. Convert the two tissue weights to the same unit before dividing dried weight by fresh weight. A percentage is a ratio of comparable quantities, so mixing ounces with another weight unit can give a false result even when each scale reading is accurate. Keep the original weights and units in the record. This makes calculation errors easier to detect before they influence a harvest decision.
