            You now need to whip that clingfilm off before it rots the seedling

                      Also there is a question if they are refering to a mango or an avocado, the reply mentions mango, then avocado then says they nearly had fruit after 5 years. So it could have been 5 years for avocado.

                          welcome minion! Your mango is looking good! Now you'll have to hang around for 5 or 20 years to tell us how it gets on!
