Good to know. Now, could someone please write up a similar guide for mangoes? Too many are hard when I buy them, and they start getting mushy after a week, eventually rotting. However, at no point do they become truly ripe and sweet.
- bluGill 3y agoGo to India in mango season. (or I assume other areas where Mangos grow). They export the garbage locals won't eat.

- lobocinza 3y agoCurious in Brazil generally the best produce is exported and the rest goes to the local markets due to price dynamics. But the best mango is locally produced. Cultivars that are unsuitable for commercial distribution (you can't harvest it unripened) but super delicious. It's not an overstatement to say that many houses in my region have at least one mango tree.
- JamesSwift 3y agoTheres a tiny limit on the amount of off-the-tree ripening that will occur, and they are really difficult to "read" on the tree to know when they are ripe. Each variety is different. The key for good mango is to let them go further than you would think on the tree and hopefully the birds dont beat you to them. Source: moved into a house with several mango trees and am now pretty good at harvesting.
