[Karlo]

i have a feeling it is a bacterial infection.

Being disappointed and discouraged is part of being a gardener. I felt that way myself the other day, but then there are always signs of encouragement that keep us going.

I thought you were going to use Copper based fungicide, Btw now stem looks like its burnt (excess soap or soda has burning effect on plant).

I thought you have sprayed only on the affected leafs.

I changed my mind,I decided to start with this. A mixture of 5ml Organic neem oil (PINKSUN) contains 1000+ ppm of azadirachtin,10ml of Horticultural gentle liquid sope (PINKSUN),5mg of baking powder to 1 liter of water. Go to google see these products there's no way that these are burned by this mix. 2 thing I guess it is a bacterial infection I noticed on the leaves small dots which are lifted I'll take a photo if you're interested i have old pictures with high magnification of infection.

Here is my post. About 10 days later the leaves went completely brown so I cut them off. There are no leaves et but the stalk is still very green.
Please tell me what you did it fix this, or if you couldn't find a solution, I really need help.

Hi My plant is long over but I will try again,As to the problem 2 things can be.Physiological disorder called Oedema-Oedema occurs due to excess water retention in the tissues-,or Anthracnose, a fungal disease.When I threw my plants the soil was full of water i watered the plant when i noticed that are 2-3 cm of the top soil dry but my soil had a large amount of perlite so I guess that's why in my case but I'm not sure 100% when did you last watered plant? check if the soil has a large amount of water?

Karlo, I am assuming you grew mango from seed?

Yep. Why? Is it possible that the seeds are infected with something?

No
The mango you had was probably 'Alfonso'. It is a very weak cultivator. In orchards, it usually grafted on top of wild mango or one of the more sturdier mango.
Second thing is, mango thrives in full sun. It also gets big and is a nutrient hog! I am skeptical about how it will do in your area......
If you still wanna give it a shot, try getting seeds of mango varieties like 'langda', 'sindoori', 'totapuri', 'chausa' etc. These are Hardy varieties with more fiberous (and even more flavourful) fruit , used as root stock, especially langda.......!!
Or get a grafted plant if you can.
Btw, don't overwater..... Mango can tolerate brief periods of drought.

Did everything turn brown? All of my leaves turned brown and dry, the stem didn't though. I didn't really notice any fungal spots so I didn't assume it was a disease, besides I sprayed it with a pesticide mixture once a week. I just cut off the leaves.

I'm going to try that. I'm going to order a BUNCH of mango seeds instead of using store bought seeds. Thanks
