  3. 3. Do not trust colour alone

Himsagar has a short season and everyone wants the best ones. A few habits make it easier to choose well, whether you are at the market or ordering online.

1. Smell the stem end

A ripe Himsagar smells sweet near the stalk. If there is no smell, it needs another day or two. A sour or fermented smell means it has gone too far.

2. Weigh it in your hand

A good mango feels heavy for its size. Light fruit is often dry inside.

3. Do not trust colour alone

Himsagar stays green-yellow even when ripe, so a mango that is bright, even yellow all over and still very hard can be a sign of forced ripening. Press gently near the stalk. It should give a little, not feel like a stone and not feel like jelly.
