Here’s a little explanation of the data in this

Here’s a little explanation of the data in this chart. This chart is the output
from the temperature data logger, from evening of 1/7/25 until the morning of 1/8/25.
Assume 45 degrees is the magical number where emerging mango flowers start to get damaged.
(Note: the flowers have not opened yet. That’s the next time we need to be concerned with the cold.)
The yellow horizontal line is the 45 degree temperature line. The green horizontal line is the
coldest temperature line which was 44.37 deg. The yellow shaded area represents the length of time
the temperature was below 45 deg, from 5:13am to 7:11am almost exactly two hours. It was also very windy
last night which can dry the new growth. So in summary, we had two hours of just below 45 degrees for two hours.
Unfortunately, we have a few more nights of this weather. The next critical point will be when the flowers
are in bloom and we get more cold weather. Remember two years back we had a cold spell in the March that killed
all the opened flowers.

Well, let’s see what happens to the mango flower

Well, let’s see what happens to the mango flowers. It was windy as well. Although the wind stops the frost, it dries out the new growth which is very tender. Looks like we have a few more days of this. It is not cold enough to actually damage the trees themselves.

Getting ready for the cold weather. I use a loggin

Getting ready for the cold weather.
I use a logging thermometer that takes a sample every 10 seconds. Along with knowing the temperature, I want to see how long it stayed at the lowest temperature. That will help me determine if I have mangoes or a large mulch pile.
