My mangos tree has borne fruits. As you can see, this group may be ripe around three weeks to come while in many other parts there are still many flowers which mean it still takes a long time to wait before it becomes fruit and ripe.
In my previous home, I have a type of mango which generally cannot ripen. Mango from that tree is generally rotten before ripe. It’s a pity because actually, the taste of the mangoes is very tasty and sweet. If it can ripen, at least mature enough to be picked, the fruit is not runny and feels starchy.
Is it possible that mangoes are like humans too, there are types that can grow and develop well until they ripen in the tree perfectly, but there are also those who will not be able to ripe, or rot prematurely?
I don’t know, but what is clear is that is the reality is all around me, both mango and human.

Thank you for your visit, my friend.
The rotten nature of humans – snuck that one in my friend. I suspect the easy answer to that question is yes But in reality i do not. I try to assume all people are good by nature. I am wrong sometimes. But I am right sometimes as well.
I also do not intend to judge anyone here except to invite us, at least myself, to see that the phenomenon exists, but still, we also have to look at the end, whether something is picked because it is ripe or because of rotten, harvested or or clean the trees or rejected .
I have some ripe lemons on my tree at the moment and also some limes. I have a peach tree and some mandarin trees and guava trees. They are only small trees.
Also have a Advocado tree. I grew it from a pip, as I did the peach tree from a pip. Im not garden expert. Yes, I have had some Advocados and plan to this year. Its in flower and Im throwing sugar water at it, trying to attract the bees so I may gain fruit.
There is also an unfruitful plum tree over the other side of the fence and trying to fertilise that with the pollen of another plum tree not far away by using a paint brush. We got some plums last year that way so will try again this year.
Extraordinary! You have so many fruit trees, Pamela. Some are in my garden or around my house like lemon, lime, guava, and avocado but peach and plum… it can’t be in my place!
We have some ground but not a lot. A lot is in pots. My lemon tree and peach tree is in the ground.
My lemon tree is also planted in pots. I intend to keep it short but fruitful, even though it hasn’t.
We cant grow tropical fruit like mangoes and pawpaw. Bananas have to be cultivated as Im still working on the banana tree over the fence. Never succeeded with it yet, even though we did get green bananas. Our climate is too cold for tropical fruit and too warm for cherries.
It must be difficult to have a tree from a different type of season, but you are diligent enough to cultivate it. That’s great, Pamela.
Almost there Albert. Lucky you! And sadly I have seen humans not “ripen” on time and when they hold. Some never do as you know.
The fruit that survives from weather attacks, birds, bats, insects, and other pests will be perfectly ripe, and as you are, so far you have reached sufficient maturity. Not all fruits survive, like people too. You are blessed.
How kind of you Albert. You just made my day… same back to you.
It is my honest opinion about you, with all your struggles. And I’m proud to have a fighter friend like you.
More kind words I needed to hear. Life has been a challenge for sure.
Unfortunately, I have not eaten manga yet …. I have to try it
I think you need to taste it, Vidocka. Certain mangoes are really special and useful.
Well, I told her, I only tried one, but I did not answer the taste best
There are many kinds of mango with various kinds of taste. Hopefully one day you will find the most delicious.
I still did not know a friend that there are several kinds of manga with different flavors-I thought that there was only one kind of-you see a gentleman all his life we are learning something
Indeed, mango is made up of many types, and it’s easy to see from its shape.
Well, all this time we have shared information and knowledge, also learned together, Lado.
Oh boy, they are almost ripe. I hope the birds don’t find them! I wish I had one. It can grow here, but I would have to keep it in a pot. That would be hard to do. I love mangos more than the young souls..
I have no experience with mangoes eaten by birds, except bats. But I have contacted Batman so that his troops do not interfere with my fruits.
Why do you have to plant it in a pot? Even if fruiting, it will be very long and just a little.
I love mangoes! But I don’t know about its benefits at all lol!!
I cant define a “rotten” person… Does that means he died? Or got sick? Or just simply turn bad and harm others?
And yes, it’s a pity about your mangoes … maybe you can find ways to let it ripen on the tree?
Here are some benefits of mangoes:
Reducing Cholesterol Levels. High in vitamin C and rich in fiber found in mangoes can help reduce cholesterol levels in your body. …
-Prevent cancer. …
-Burn Calories. …
-Healthy Facial Skin. …
-Increasing body immunity. …
-Healthy Eyes. …
-High Iron.
A “rotten” person can be defined in many means or aspects; character, health, attitude, habit, behavior, etc.
Ok, that is quite a lot of benefits!!
Now I’ve good reasons to eat them!! whahahaha
If those are all considered then I believe…
I know many who are rotten before mature but then some of them “un-rotten” themselves…
Unrotten themselves is the most unfortunate…
You have a nice tree. It only has a market in it.
As far as I know, mango is indeed a tropical fruit (although it does not like moisture and high rainfall). So in your place, it is likely to only be on the market, even though there is no its tree on the market. lol
