Hey Greg. Thank you for taking the time to put all of these videos and articles together for us. If you had to pick your top 5 favorite citrus and avocado varieties (in order) what would they be. Backyard is limited to what I can grow so your input would be very much appreciated 😊.

Greg thanks for making a video on the Jan Boyce. I have a young tree planted in April of 2020 and so far it’s set a few cukes. There are flowers on the tree now so I’m hoping for a few fruit next year if the bees do their job.

Thanks for sharing. Not that many KZbin videos on this variety.

I think Jan Boyce avocados are getting mixed in with the Hass or Hasslike avocados at Costco. I've gotten several avocados that look exactly like the ones you reviewed, including the tiny comical seed. I like it when I get those because there's so much fruit. I feel like I'm getting two for the price of one. I have to say though, I still prefer the taste of Hass.

Wondering if Brokaw offers JB as part of a bulk buy.

When I got a Kona Sharwil Avocado tree I was like, all I need now is a Jan Boyce

Hi Greg: Thank you for the review. I have been unsuccessful in my search for such a video, so yours was very helpful. I have wanted to buy a JB for some time now, but haven't found any for sale. Might you have any idea what nursery or grower might carry them here in SoCal?

Epicenter nursury . A nice lady named ellen is the contact there

I agree with Omar. Your best bet for finding a Jan Boyce tree as of today is from Epicenter (they are up near Santa Cruz, but can ship to So. Calif.): www.epicenteravocados.com/

Great video! would you please do a taste review video of John Herd avocado and Ardith avocado. Thank You!
@gregalderdotcom5 ай бұрын
Great idea! I will profile those varieties when the season is right. I have enough experience with Ardith to do it confidently this year, but I'll probably wait a year or two on John Herd because I haven't eaten enough of those yet.

Next a profile of the tree?..my 3-4 year old is leggy, not as prolific as others at thus age,, and does it alternate? Thx for all the great videos.
@gregalderdotcom Жыл бұрын
Profile of the tree is coming up, Frank. Yes, the tree is leggy, but in my observations it is moderately precocious and does not alternate badly although it doesn't produce as much overall as Hass and some other varieties.

Great work Greg. I've not had a chance to try a JB avocado yet. How does JB taste compare to Fuerte? What avocado is similar to the taste of JB? I planted a small tree about two months ago and I recently grafted JB to one of my other trees so hopefully in a couple of years I'll have some fruit. Do you have Jan Boyce tree? Have you considered a tree profile of JB? It seems to be a vigorous grower.
@gregalderdotcom Жыл бұрын
Thanks, Sam. The quality of the taste of JB and Fuerte are similar. I do grow JB and I am putting together a profile of the JB tree and should get it out in a couple weeks.

I find the inability to peel Jan Boyce to be super annoying. I don't know if I find its flavor good enough to overcome that annoyance. I guess that's an important trait for me. 😉
@ocnealocneal6549 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for that comment, especially that you find that the superior taste still might not be enough to overcome the difficult peeling of the skin.

@gregalderdotcom Жыл бұрын
The skin of Jan Boyce is its major flaw, for sure. I don't actually mind not being able to peel it. For me, it's annoying that I can't quickly spoon it out since I have to be careful not to tear the skin. Of course, JB shares this flaw with many other good varieties such as Fuerte.

If you were planting an avocado tree between Ardith or Jan Boyce which one would you plant?
@gregalderdotcom Жыл бұрын
I can't give a good answer for that one, sorry. Even though I grow both and have seen others' trees, I'm lacking enough experience with Ardith to give it a proper judgment.
