Editing Mangifera indica (section)

=== Seasonal changes ===
Mango growth and cropping follow local temperature, rainfall, cultivar, and rootstock. Dry weather before and during flowering is favorable in the UF/IFAS production example, while fruit development commonly takes about 100–150 days. In Florida, most cultivars mature from May through September, with the main crop often in June and July; those months should not be transferred unchanged to other climates.[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]

Young trees need regular establishment watering, followed by less frequent irrigation once roots are established. UF/IFAS recommends reducing or stopping irrigation when the rainy season arrives and notes that trees four years and older generally benefit from watering only during prolonged spring or summer drought; little or no irrigation is normally needed in fall and winter in that regional example.[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]
