REM, thanks for your updates. I think everybody leans off everybody to try to figure out what’s best for our own homes and properties. I enjoy your feedback and Johnny’s, at Johnny’s World - avocados, as well. There’s still a lot of varieties I haven’t tasted yet, and I’m dying to. Enjoy your summer.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Always a work in process, I just fixed another water leak just now. With this heat coming on, make sure your trees stay hydrated. You've been around since the beginning so I appreciate it and do learn from your comments!

[@growyourownavocados]

Thanks for sharing your trees and input on rootstock. Yeah, if I get a tree that isn't doing well I usually replace them because with seedling rootstock you just never know and up here clonals aren't available.

[@chrisinsley5880]

REM....stay hydrated sir. It's going to be super hot the next 13 days up here in El Dorado Hills. Looks like 100+ for the whole duration with 5 days over 105....got to be very vigilant on the watering regime during this stretch. Chris

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@chrisinsley5880 I remember when it got to 110+ here and it killed a lot of the avocados, make sure you keep them hydrated. Another thing, spray them down in the middle of the day multiple times if possible. Once you get past the heat wave it gets easier. Good luck to us all!

[@Avo7bProject]

It's odd how few fruit that Ettinger could hold after flowering so vigorously. It goes to show that you can't predict the final fruitset based on flowering. But fortunately you have plenty of other trees covered with fruit to compensate.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I think it's because we had a weird year this variety didn't like it. My Edranol lost everything. Plus I didn't fertilize at all this year, maybe that had an effect but the other trees did ok so who knows. I'm still experimenting

[@neurocognitive]

Hey REM - Lots of successes to celebrate. I like the "mortality rate" comment. We all have lost trees for sure. You have sooo many varieties!!

[@AvocadoTalk]

You can not win them all but it is fun to try. Stay cool with this heat we got coming!

[@neurocognitive]

Quick Question - When did you stop using shade cloth for your younger trees?

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@neurocognitive at this point most of my trees are big enough now that I don't need to use the shade cloth. I also noticed that if I water more I don't really need shade cloth. On the really young trees and especially the new growth that is really tender I use surround WP. This seems to be easier than managing it with shade cloth. The key for me has really been about getting the root ball established. I have a couple of trees that are super small that I will still put shade cloth over if I do put them into the ground right now. So really kind of a balancing act more shade less water Les shade more water.

[@neurocognitive]

@@AvocadoTalk Thanks for the detailed response. I have sprayed my trees with Surround WP, and they still burned. I then added the shade cloth, and that seemed to do the trick. I also kept them watered, and also did foliar spraying with water on especially hot days - multiple times per day. This is with the young potted trees, but with the 105 temps and direct intense sun conditions, I still lost 3 trees last summer. The ones I lost did not get the shade cloth until later, which was too late. Thanks again!!

[@everydayanimalswithrainfor1315]

love your videos and the info your providing, been a follower for a while. i feel the background music is a little much maybe out of context or too loud or something, hard to focus on the point of the vid.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I get it, I go back and forth with music and no music. Extra low volume next time and I do change things up here and there. It is all about the avocados and the journey, thanks for watching and being a sub!

[@gabeleon2922]

Good to see that your trees are trees are doing great and that you will be having a lot of fruit from the different varieties. Have you ever tried fruit tree netting on your trees to keep the squirrels from eating the fruit? I'm thinking of using one on the Maluma and Gem. Hopefully that will save a lot of the fruit. If any of your followers have used them, I welcome their input.

[@ocneal]

Gabe: This was a 6-20-24 presentation to our club as to dealing with things like squirrels, rats, possums, birds. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIPMiqeZeLinp7Msi=V6XnONx5GQQ7rKhh

[@johnnysworld-backyardorchard]

Great video REM, wow you are having a great year! You did a great job arranging your avocado trees, I really should have thought about mine before I planted. Great that you have a nice Jujube Tree. Great video, your avocado trees are looking great, thanks for sharing!

[@AvocadoTalk]

I can't catch up to all your jujubes and dragon fruit but I'm working on it. Fun nonetheless.

[@johnnysworld-backyardorchard]

@@AvocadoTalk Very cool that you are growing both jujube and dragon fruit too! I am really impressed with all your avocado trees and fruit production, very impressive my friend!

[@Betty599]

Thank You for the updates. My Gem, Carmen, Gwen & Don Gillogly is precocious still hanging on to the fruits. Look like I will have Reed this year, too early to count. Lamb, bacon is producing lot more this year. All of my Queen, Jan Boyce, Nabal dropped. Still have some fruit on Hellen, Sir Prize, Choquette, Pinkerton, Oro Negro & Edranol. Will know more by end of August. Zone 8b West Paso Robles Ca. elevation 2000.

[@eligomez7667]

Nice job on the Oaklando! Mine died 😢

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@eligomez7667 Don't give up. Do it again

[@bruinbiochem06]

Nice update. Have you considered digging a small trench to cut the Eucalyptus roots?

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@bruinbiochem06 yeah, I even considered using a copper sheet as a root barrier.

[@growyourownavocados]

The Oaklando looks excellent!

[@AvocadoTalk]

Fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞

[@RareAvoTrees]

Nice collection you have, try some of the newer Brokaw rootstock some good ones coming out to handle rootrot.

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@RareAvoTreesI actually ordered a bunch on my last batch from Brokaw. I ended up selling a lot of them to people who wanted them and didn't order originally with my first order. One of the newer ones I got is Zerala, ordered Leola, Tami (VC801), Ben-Ya’acov1 (VC66) and Miriam (VC218). Should have kept them and planted instead of the GEM from la verne .

[@RareAvoTrees]

@@AvocadoTalk nice I bet they were happy I'm getting about 30 in a few weeks from Brokaw on about 6 different rootstocks, no dusa or Duke 7 on the list.i may sell a few of my extra also.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Awesome, what did you get? Variety and Rootstock? I'm just curious...

[@RareAvoTrees]

@@AvocadoTalk,,,, the ones I got where Maluma,gem and Hass for the Hass I will likely turn in into a 2 or 3 way tree but some rootstock I wanted was only on Hass,i would have got lamb but not avail till 2026.

[@RareAvoTrees]

@@AvocadoTalk I will also graft Cannonball avo to some of the new rootstock, Cannonball runs to 3 pounds but perhaps on clonal rootstock I can get 3.5 or 4 pounds if the right match up is found.

[@rubenc7858]

Background music sounds like a cross of Top Gun and Scarface sound track.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I thought it sounded cool when I first heard it, it is not for everybody but it is all good. Thanks for watching!

[@rubenc7858]

@AvocadoTalk love the videos . Good work

[@Moochy999]

Love your enthusiasm and yard. But, you should not have any weed growth in or near your trees. Also, I always have 6 to 8 inches of mulch under my trees and extending out past the drip line. My yard is heavy clay so my trees are on 18 inch mounds of sandy loam carted into the planting area. Avocados require this imo.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I totally agree but it's hard work. The top section where I have some of my trees, I just can't keep up. The crab grass is just crazy and the kurapia is strong. I did a better job when I had less trees. I had a lot of mulch and it kept the weeds down but then it over took the mulch. The bottom section, I have a good amount of avocado leaves and it's helping. The section where I like have a little green really for the kiddos and their volleyball but it spreads. Fun times.

[@MoAces]

It really does seems to be lottery with seedlings. My small sharwil tree structure looks nothing like yours buts its holding on to its fruit pretty well. Still debating if I should cut them off. I was wondering if you noticed the clonal rootstock do better dealing with the heat?

[@AvocadoTalk]

Yes my clonal are handling the heat much better. Gem on Zerala gets less water and holding fruit whereas my unknown rootstock from la verne Gem isn't doing anything. I think I have time but is it worth it to water in the hopes of it finally making it. I might just get Clonal and replace them sooner than later. If yours are holding the fruit than you might be ok.

[@jlakindd]

how old are your hass trees and jan boyce?

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hass planted in '21, 15 Gallon. Other 2 Hass and Jan Boyce 2 months earlier, 5Gallon and it look like it will take over the 15Gallon.
