Mango planted from seed is producing seedless mangos (forum)

Inelli starts with ...
Hi, I have no idea what Mango I planted four years ago from seed but it has started fruiting this year. It is in a large pot and had a dozen mangos, with one really large mango that have a small husk pretty much zero fiber and lots of flesh. When I pryed open the husk it had no seed. We opened all of the ones that have ripened and found them all to be seedless.
Little to no fiber and seedless.
If I put up some pictures would someone give me an idea of what type of mango it could be? It's very strange.

Hi Inelli

According to some mango gurus, continued low temperatures during flowering (15C and below) will hamper complete pollination, fertilization and fruit development which might cause the production of seedless underdeveloped fruit like yours.

If your mango will consistently produce seedless and fiberless fruit year after year then you have yourself a rare seedless mango tree which scientist are desperately trying to create for close to a decade now. So closely watch your mango tree. You can even apply a PBR later on and sell the rights to the biggies afterwards for a princely sum.

Happy Gardening :-)

Hello,
I’ve been googling like crazy as I also have encountered mangos that husk is empty and contains no seed. I can’t find anything on it but have stumbled across this forum. The trees that I have collected from have all been seedless not just one, and they are massive so they would be decades old. Very interested to find out how and why this happens :)
