[@robertmuiruri550]

Thanks for answering the question as to where is that place

[@paulngatia88]

Good work.contrary to what people think,avocado trees need constant care to realize good returns.

[@254YoungWildandFree]

absolutely 💯

[@adanaligokhan2904]

Hello. Thank you for sharing video. How old are that trees. What is the gap between trees?

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Hello, the pleasure is all mine They are one year, eight months old now... and the spacing is 20 by 20 ft... watch the latest video to see the progress since then

[@waciiramuya6695]

How many acres is your farm ? I want to know ? How many trees is it advisable to fit ? Very impressed .

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Hello... just space the trees at standard intervals of 20 by 20 ft.... do the math

How high can the temperature get and what is the average temperature there.I am trying to compare to the climate here to see if it would be suitable to grow some here

[@254YoungWildandFree]

The average temperature is around 27 degrees.

I'd like to start up my own orchard but don't know where to start and know nothing about farming. Do you think I should study an agricultural degree like agricultural science, agronomy etc or seek out an apprenticeship? How did you get started? I'd appreciate any advice you can give.

[@254YoungWildandFree]

hello...all you need to do is do your research on online platforms like KZbin and learn how to start your orchard. It's a learning process so just consult every time you need guidance on something.

[@alfiankharismanto9461]

hello I'm from Indonesia. here has a tropical climate and I live in the lowlands, the temperature here reaches 40°c during the dry season, can the Hass variety survive?

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Hello...I think an agronomist from Indonesia can give you better advice . Greetings from Kenya🇰🇪

[@alfiankharismanto9461]

Avocado farmers here recommend that the Guatemalan variety be planted at an altitude of 1200 with a temperature of 23°C and in the lowlands they recommend the West Indian variety. I don't know if hass will grow well where I am... what is the temperature and how many seasons are there?

[@hassavocado_man]

Temperatures averages 33°C at the farm

[@realvipul]

all avocado varieties will grow well in tropical lowland climate. issue is fruiting. hass may not flower well or drop fruits or fruit will taste bad.

[@alfiankharismanto9461]

​@@realvipulAt my place someone has planted hass but it produces very small fruit and many of the flowers fall off. Maybe because the weather here is too hot for Hass.

[@stevenjue2840]

How big is your farm and why is not advisable to intercrop avocados with oranges?

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Because of cross pollination... apparently oranges can alter the quality of avocados

[@JCNATION-ud4in]

What of maize

[@polycarpokoth4550]

Good work Hellen can avacado plant be mixed with other crops and at what age

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Probably yeah... due to the large spacing, but I think when the trees mature and form a canopy, it's hard to grow anything else between the trees. watch out for our next video for details.

Get vetiver grass and plant around the avocado trees. vetiver will not compete with the avocado tree for nutrients. instead they will form a symbiotic relationship

[@254YoungWildandFree]

The only problem i am seeing here is the way your rows are spaced one after the other..you are supposed to stagger each row from the next so that those canopies do not touch the next row while leaving a bog space along the rows..

You shouldnt have that much avocado trees. It should be balanced with other trees. Avocados will deplete the ground water. We know that avocados are profitable but you are destroying the land.

[@254YoungWildandFree]

Avocados are just like other trees... how does a forest destroy the land?
