Today I harvested about half the fruits from our Timotayo Mango tree. I determine ripeness by pressing slightly on the bottom (pointed end) of the fruit. If it is softening, I pick it. The skins have been turning color a bit unevenly – some patches of green remain on many fruits. Who cares – the fruit inside is packed with flavor! I found the skins edible except a bit too tough where green so most of them I eat without peeling. I also found the seed of this cultivar very thin, unlike those from the stores.
