Good day sir, my avocado seedling is 5 months old and I'd like to know how old must the avocado tree be before I can plant it outside in the back yard? thanks for your informative videos by the way. it helps a lot.
When we plant young trees (just planted 4 Citrus trees a few days ago) we dig 4' long by 3' wide by 3' deep. Put in Gypsum to combat this clay soil, a layer of straw, some veggie waist in the outskirts of the hole, a layer of composted soil mixed with native soil, then Azomite, Earthworm casings, Mycorrhyzae, then another layer of mixed soil, put tree in and cover with mixed soil. Layer of straw (hard to get wood chips here without having to load ourselves - in our 70s - unable to do that anymore) for mulch. Water and rest. Judi
Story: me and my Nana LOVE avocado toast, so we started growing the avocado seeds everytime after we ate the toast, and now, one of them that we put in the ground and put a milk jug top on it to improve humidity, it’s starting to get leaves! That was about two or so weeks ago 🥳
I've watched over 5 videos about growing avocado trees. I must say yours is the best. Great and concise sharing of your knowledge and experience. Everything I wanted to know. Thank-you. I am subscribing !!
Agreed 💯...I did the same exact thing except after maybe watching 10 other videos...This after failing with my first Avo plant. After watching this vid, I now understand where I went wrong! Cheers from FL
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your expertise. Your detailed description provides meaningful information for anyone that wants to plant an avocado tree. I wish I would have had the opportunity to see this video prior to planting my tree.
I just put a deep watering system in for my Fuerte avocado tree. Wow, was that tough to drill down into the clay soil!! Nice video, thanks for validating a lot of what I've learned up to this point!
first thing I do is bless them and tell them that I will take good care for them and will for the entire life you need to talk to them daily send love to them then the rest is easy.
My sister planted 20 of them and she is praying for AVACADO to give fruits for 20 years. She call me and ask what to do as they are 20 feet tall I told her cut them. And use the wood for sausage smoking atlest the sausage will smell like AVACADO
@@JusticeJo Thank you very much but I did. Now I am planning to graft them. I have know choice. But again thank you as I have research about what you said.
Avocado recently get much popularity in grocery supermarket in United States..! Best avocado verity one can get out of island of Jamaica size wise it is bigger and it has more pulp next thing our farmers should think about plantation of Jamaican “Akee tree” which more popular in West Indies....!
Your videos are really informative and helpful. I have my own passion fruit farm and I have adopted sprinkler irrigation just like what you did in the video. However, I wish to adopt drip irrigation instead because I think it will save more water and energy but i am afraid that the farm end of the root system will not get enough water. I was wondering if you could explain the pros and cons of drip and sprinkler irrigation. Regards,
We have a Hass avocado tree from seed I think its about 8 yrs old or so grew in a lg pot till a few yrs ago now its also about 10’ tall. We also bought 3 more a Catalina/Persea Americana 30 ‘X 20 & 2 just say Persea Americana 25’X25’ we did plant them on a slope (good thing) I’m learning after the fact shamefully. After the big “C” we decided to plant many trees, 2 Grapefruit, 2 Mango, 2 Fig, 2 Orange a Navel & Valencia, and we have two Meyer lemon trees, we even found 2 Apple trees for Fl weather Golden Dorsett & Anna. Oh & we replaced 2 wht vinyl patio doors newer but codes changed so used them plus plexiglass and enclosed a Pergola for a green house. Unfortunately we were repairing the home from a sink hole so extremely busy, plus chgd a sitting room to a bdr & made the spa area into a study. had wrkrs but so sloppy fired and redid all the wrk. Same on study except outer walls & windows & exit door. I think anyone w/a hammer calls themselves a carpenter today. So why learning about all the tree care after the fact. Good video thank you for all the great info! Will check out your others.
your water bill must me like paying a mortgage! its a shame we cant just turn the rain on/off to demand, cant wait to see all the fruits on your trees fingers crossed we all survive this scamdemic without the need of a death jab then we can all look forward to seeing this harvest :) thanks for all your uploads, its greatly appreciated
I’m growing two avocados trees from seed in basically the same hole here in south Florida, both are about 5’7” from growth this year ,so no fruiting as yet. I mostly just use urine as my fertilizer so We shall see!
Chris Sewell yeah in my small food forest I use urine as a liquid fertilizer for some of my trees and plants. Search it on RU-vid or the internet, you will see it is more popular than you think. :)

How many years will an avocado tree produce good fruit? Coz we have a 10 year old avocado trees before it produces big and delicious avocados but now its always small and kinda bitter taste
How to take care of Avocado Plant in very hot areas? I live in India, at a place where max temperature is about 45 degree Celsius in Summers and 0 degree celsius in Winters! Here, Mango, Guava, Lemon, Sugar Apple grows very well! My Avocado plant is turning brown, i have kept it in a shady area
You are the best , I have question , we bought house with land in California but land is very hard and looks like red color and stone in it , so hard to dig , how we can grow things there , thanks
Prayers for you 🙏 Don't give up stay strong,. You can fight this, you will come out of this Covid. Believe our Lord Jesus Christ will heal you. I pray for healing in Jesus Christ mighty name Amen 🙏
I have a 3-4 year old Avocado tree in a big pot. It all started with a seed. I was thinking to plant it outside, however l am not sure if it’s gonna survive the winter. We have up to (-14)-(-16) C degrees winter and very humid. Isn’t that to cold for it?
What's the best way to propagate an avocado tree? I've tried it different methods and I've failed every time. I've propagated several figs with 100% success. With avocados, zero. I've planted them from seeds though, but I don't know whether or not they'll ever fruit.
Our winter climates hit as low at zero to -5 and in August, +102. If I protect them for two years, it is possible to grow outside vs being in a heated-cooled greenhouse? What type?
Very informative video. Do you have a video on avocado grafting? I have rootstocks prepared , but at what age (2 months) would be ideal to start grafting them?
My avocado trees have decent drainage here in Manteca ca but I was wondering if it’s a good idea to add some gypsum pellets to the topsoil to add some calcium to the soil for the tree to absorb?
