Editing Mangifera indica (section)

== Flowering, fruiting, and harvest ==
Grafted trees in the UF/IFAS Florida guidance begin bearing about three to five years after planting, but the interval is cultivar-, rootstock-, climate-, and management-dependent. Flowering and young fruit are vulnerable to cool temperatures; anthracnose and powdery mildew can also reduce fruit set. Harvest is commonly by hand or with a picking pole, and post-harvest pruning can keep fruit within reach.[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]
