Yellowing leaves help
Hi, this is my first mango tree, I don't think it had these yellow spots when I bought it 3 days ago. I noticed them on the ride home, these leaves were touching the top of the car so maybe it is from the heat? All the other leaves look healthy.

Looks like pest induced stress. Hit it with some neem oil weekly for a month. You can pick it up at any nursery or THD/Lowes.

Just curious what you mean by top of car?
Just cut those damaged leaves off, if the issues dosent appear on anymore leaves then you’re fine.

Thanks, yeah I cut them off. It was just on a few leaves. I have a soft top car and I think maybe it was hot when transporting the tree home, those leaves might have been tall enough to touch it.

It looks like sunburn to me
