I work at a retail nursery and I pinched topped 🤏🌿 the lanky examples of Pinkerton, Holiday, Hass and Carmen and they are now pushing flowers. I wanted them to lose thier apical dominance and bush out instead so it was initially intended to be a shaping prune but it doubled as a production prune as well. Also I recommend the Honey Citron & Ginger tea it's at costco 🍵 thanks for sharing always 👍

[@AvocadoTalk]

I love Costco, that's where I got the green tea matcha. I'll look for the honey citron for sure. Your avocado collection is growing also, soon we'll have tons of avocados. Thanks for watching!

[@budstik]

What month did you pinch? I pruned a Carmen Hass in August and it's just pushing leaf growth. No flowers.

[@831AVO]

@@budstik late September

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@831AVO thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.

[@johnnysworld-backyardorchard]

Everything is looking great, thanks for sharing REM!

[@AvocadoTalk]

Thanks for watching!

[@growyourownavocados]

Up here MG and Pinkerton are flowering too unless the Pinkerton is actually a MG with the wrong label. A good year ahead!

[@AvocadoTalk]

That's awesome, others have their Fuerte flowing also. Keep me updated if you get fruit and they stick. Thanks for watching!

[@neurocognitive]

Hey REM - Everything looks great in your orchard. Those Hass are consistently producing - definitely a dependable variety. Question - I am thinking about topping my trees at 12 feet to keep them smaller and easier to access the fruit. What are your thoughts? I see that some of your trees are getting pretty tall. Sounds like rain may be in our future next week. Thanks

[@AvocadoTalk]

I'm planning to keep all of mine between 12-15 feet tall. Going to be cutting the tops soon before spring. I've seen some around my neighborhood that are gigantic, can't get to the fruit. We'll see what the future holds. Thanks as always for watching!

[@neurocognitive]

@@AvocadoTalk With my fig trees I hold off on pruning until they to dormant. Do avocado trees have a dormancy period?? So you would top your trees sometime this winter?

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@neurocognitive it's best to do heavy pruning late winter (January and February) for us in Southern California. Also that is actually a good time to graft, spring comes around and new growth comes in. Light pruning throughout the year is ok also to keep it shaped how you want it.

[@neurocognitive]

Thanks for the information. Very helpful@@AvocadoTalk

[@126AP]

My Pinkerton just started flowering this week also here in Ventura Co🙌

[@AvocadoTalk]

Nice, maybe we'll get some extra fruit... Mine aren't open yet.

[@franmusolino2660]

My Pinkerton is flowering here in Santa Rosa, nor cal

[@AvocadoTalk]

Wow that is way North. Have you gotten fruit from your avocados?

[@xrsjohnm]

Your trees are really productive and fruiting how often when and what do you give your trees? They seem really fast growing

[@AvocadoTalk]

I water my trees a lot, especially during the summertime. I think that's probably one of the big things that have helped my little orchard. I am planning on applying a little fertilizer, probably the first week of December. Thanks for watching!

[@growyourownavocados]

I have also had good experiences of using Bacon as a rootstock. In fact I replaced my Zutano with Bacon since I was growing it for the seeds.

[@AvocadoTalk]

What fruit do you like better Zutano or Bacon?

[@growyourownavocados]

I taste a slight nuttiness in Bacon I don't normally taste with Zutano but at times they can taste almost the same and hard to distinguish.

[@sheens9193]

My Pinkerton is flowering as well. Mostly pushing them out, but a few are already open. 3 miles from last in San Diego. Good to know Bacon can be a good seedling. Believe it or not, my wurtz seedlings have been amazingly vigorous and most of the grafts have taken. I wish it served as a dwarfing root stock but I don’t think that the case.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Zutano is more common probably because more orchards are growing it with Hass. Bacon has been good for me. Keep me updated on your Pinkerton avocado if you actually get some fruit. Thanks for watching!

[@TheOCBackyardGardener]

It looks like you're going to have avocado all year round. That's awesome.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I think 2024 will be the first year with year round fruit. I'm so excited, this was the plan all along. Hope yours are doing well too. Thanks for watching!

[@SVmathfarmer]

Hi REM. My 2 year old Carmen in full bloom and setting a small amount of fruit. Mexicola Grande and Gillogly in bloom as well. Any update on Luna?

[@AvocadoTalk]

🤞 for Luna. He is still working out the details for Luna and home growers. I was thinking of picking them up earlier to get a head start. We'll see.

[@monkeykat1]

Planted my Gwen this march. It's a little over 4ft and about to flower. If it sets fruit should I leave it? Will it slow its growth? It is winter and growth is slow anyway. Thanks

[@AvocadoTalk]

I did allow some fruit to set but I probably shouldn't have done any fruit for the first year. Mine is about 5 to 6 ft. tall and probably okay to have a couple of fruits. It fruited it so much that it broke the branch. Congrats on your Gwen avocado! I think you'll really like it and thanks for watching!

[@termonator001]

When you going make another order?

[@AvocadoTalk]

If I do it again probably be early spring of next year.

[@xrsjohnm]

DO you fertilize year round, or skip fertilizing during the flowering period to slightly after fruitset? Feb- july? Still using that commercial fertilizer with guano?

[@xrsjohnm]

Still using bloom boosters?

[@AvocadoTalk]

Nope not this year. I've only fertilized once this year. This will be my second for this year.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I like the True with guano, cheap and good fertilizer.

[@xrsjohnm]

Thanks for the recommendation I just bought some on Amazon 21 dollars for 12 lbs. Avocado citrus true fertilizer

[@dohduh167]

Do you have a lead on a nursery selling Maluma avocado trees in So Cal? Where did you buy yours? I, too, live in So Cal (Thousand Oaks) but can't find one.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Yes Brokaw nurseries grows and sells them to folks in Southern California. There is a minimum order. Looks like you missed out on my group I did earlier this year to get to the minimum order. Thanks for watching!
