How to Graft Avocado Trees Step by Step! 4 Varieties on 1 Tree!

[@3MinLures]

Good way to go with a tree growing close to your home. I had to take down one, against my will, do to the same reason but I replace it immediately with a smaller, "friendlier to structure" tree. Greetings!

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Luckily avocado trees are friendly to structures

[@WildSatsang]

Learned a lot & look forward to giving it a try! Thanks!

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Great! Good luck with the grafting!

A tip for you, label each grafted branch with alum metal tags.

I wanna see you get your hands on the Oro Negro variety. The story of Hass is very interesting, “A man kept it as a root stock but it never took his grafts, so he let it grow out, he was going to remove the tree, but his daughter loved the taste so he kept it, patented it and sold the patent for only $5,000.”

[@AJTheGraftMan]

I’ve heard great things about Oro Negro. The Hass story is fascinating. Crazy how that one tree spawned millions and millions more

I did not realize there were so many varieties of avocado. New peep here. It is easy to follow your process. you are so thorough about how you are doing the graft.

Thanks! Yes there are so many different avocado varieties, and some of them are truly special and delicious

I only wish I had viewed your video on grafting a couple of years ago during the pandemic. I grafted my apple tree with another variety of apple. Little success 2nd year. Some years ago, in Pacific Beach a neighbor had a avocado/pear tree. Pears had a similar meat only sweeter.

[@bradweesner6861]

Great instructional video! I wish i had discovered your channel sooner as i just lost 9 out of my first 10 grafts. But i now know how to do it next time, just waiting on the next batch of seedlings to grow! thanks

[@rafaelporras1806]

Hello AJ, I enjoy watching all your videos and have learnt quite a bit and thank you for that. I also live in San Diego, if ever you’re going to do some avocado pruning, please let me know and I will buy some Scions off of you. Thank you. It will be awesome to meet you

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Thanks for watching my videos. Yes sure, sounds good. As my trees grow bigger, I’ll be able to give out more scions. Thanks

[@SayQuesitoPhotobooth]

Hi Aj, your video was suggested and now you have a new subscriber. Do you sell any of your avocado scions? Would like to buy some.

[@ocneal]

Hi AJ. I like how I can scroll along the timeline of the video and you have labeled the different tasks at those moments in the video. I like how the branches are low on the rootstock plant - the Reed Seedling - and it seems as though it will make for lower scaffolding branches and you can prune it better to keep it low. That will be a popular tree. Thanks for the video. And your Jan Boyce scion being an "A" type flowering tree will help to pollinate the the Nimlioh, Sharwil, Nabal, and Hellen scions which are all "B" type scions. If the Reed seedling is like its parent, you will have another "A" type scion to help the cause. How do you keep the camera so steady for the videos? Are you using your phone or a camera? - Neal in Anaheim

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Thanks Neal!

[@robertramirez8908]

Love it man. Been watching your videos on avocados for years. Learned so much. Would love to get a Pinkerton scion. Where can I find them?

[@jockhead143]

AJ thanks so much for sharing. Is it possible to buy some of the scions you use in the video?

[@JohnW-bi8vj]

Fantastic video and explanation, thank you. One question - do the grafted branches then keep their own variety's growth characteristics? What I mean is if you graft a larger tree variety onto a smaller variety, will that branch grow more vigorously than the host tree and have to be pruned more often? Thank you.

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Thanks! Great questions! I’ll do a video that will hopefully answer your questions

Hi A.J. my friend gave me some clippings from her avocado tree. It was 24 hours before I got the scions into the fridge, will they still work for grafting ?

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Should be ok

[@lincolnabe]

I live in Santa Barbara. The flower buds on the avo trees here have already sprouted and grown for about 3 weeks now. Is ok to try and graft now or should i wait until next week or a different season? thanks for the video

[@lincolnabe]

I meant next year.

[@AJTheGraftMan]

It’s hard to find good growth buds when the trees are in flower. I would wait until the tree is finished flowering and leaf buds start to appear again. A good time for Santa Barbara is Late summer to early fall

[@benheaver4332]

🍺👍

[@59apachestepside]

I'm in zone 9b (25deg F). If I plant a single Mexicola Grande tree, could I get fruit by grafting B type scions for a multigrafted tree? versus planting a second tree next to it? Trying to weigh the pros and cons of multiple trees vs a single multigrafted tree.

[@AJTheGraftMan]

Either way works. If you're low on space, a multigraft tree would be a better option
