Nabal Avocado Toro Canyon Rootstock🥑Avocado Talk🥑

Group Buy CLOSED- Congrats to all who got in on this!
I finally got another avocado in the ground. The Nabal Avocado on Toro Canyon Rootstock from Brokaw Nursery. Toro Canyon: Mexican rootstock comes from a survivor of an area attacked by Phytophthora cinnamomi. It has high tolerance to cold and root rot caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi. It is very tolerant to Phytophthora canker or collar rot caused by Phytophthora citricola. Its moderate canopy size is a very efficient volume of fruit production. It is more tolerant to salinity than other Mexican seedling rootstock.🥑Avocado Talk🥑

Nice find with that nursery and even better with the special rootstock. That's very kind of you to give others the opportunity to piggyback on your order.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Unless you are going fork out a lot for a lot of trees or you are a avocado farmer, probably doesn't make sense. I'm getting a Cherimoya from them too...it is going to be a great yea! Hope all of yours is doing well, should be getting warmer. Thanks for watching!

[@AE-tk9fp]

Nice man! That should grow well. Excited to see how Nabal grows on Toro. I have my popcorn ready! -Aiden

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hahahah, I got my IPA ready. I'm curious to see how it compares to my other Nabal. If this rootstock is supposed to be better, I'll definitely report back. Thanks for watching!

[@Sam-mc2dk]

First to comment. Congrats on the Nabal! I planted my Nabal this last Saturday as well. Your BBs look great!

[@AvocadoTalk]

Thanks Sam, that cluster was strong, over 30, might drop all of it for such a small tree. As always, thanks for watching!

[@djdimsum852]

This tree is the best looking tree I have laid my eyes on. Please let me know when you are planning to place another order with Brokaw.

[@damehinojosa334]

Thanks Re, excellent growth! We will be rolling in the Guac soon lol.

Guac coma...all in good fun. Hope yours is doing well. Thanks for watching!

Great video REM, your Jim Bacon is looking great. Great find on the Nabal on a great rootstock! Thanks for sharing!

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Johnny, I'm expecting all of the fruit to drop, it is just too small but we could always hope. Thanks for watching!

[@johnnysworld-backyardorchard]

@@AvocadoTalk My Gwen and GEM were both small but they both held onto 1 Avocado each. Hopefully one hangs on. Another great video!

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@johnnysworld-backyardorchard I called out one to sneak peek, I'm sure next year you'll get even more.

[@growyourownavocados]

I agree on getting 5 gallon trees. 15 gallons are amazing and closer to fruiting but after a year or two that 5 gallon the in the ground will be just as big if not bigger so if you don't feel like spending a lot just go with a 5.

[@AvocadoTalk]

My 5 gallon Hass I think might be bigger than my 15 gallon right now. I did get fruit from my 15 gallon first though. Thanks for watching!

[@greenthumb6697]

Nice looking tree. I’m interested to see how the clonal rootstocks performs 😎

Me too! If this rootstock does better, I'll definitely report back. Thanks for watching and Gotta stay hydrated!

[@ValentinoE88]

So thankful I saw this vid. I'm in Escondido and been looking for a lamb hass, Carmen, and pinkerton. I'm going to email in a bit. I drive to and from LA weekly so I can stop by wherever you're located.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Cool, sometimes things just work out... no Pinkerton and I'll ask again tomorrow. Thanks for watching!

[@MrEdwinhardesty]

This is one of the few KZbin videos that show how to plant an avocado tree correctly. No mulch underground, natural soil, and mulch on top to slowly break down and feed the plant underneath. And slightly elevated to ensure good drainage. This tree will do well if you can keep the sun off it on the those 100+ Riverside days.

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hello MrEdwin, thanks for being a part of the journey. I'll keep on showing people and hopefully we can all lean and grow tons of avocados. The temps are nice right now but the HEAT will be coming on shortly, keep them protected the 1st year and they do well going forward. Thanks for watching!

[@ernestobalderramos5488]

Aw man! I can't wait to score a Nabal, and that's so cool that you got one on such nice root stock! Any chance you'll be doing something like this again ?

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Ernesto, semi planning it, next time I'll hopefully give everyone more time to react. Thanks for watching!

[@RareAvoTrees]

Some new colonal rootatock are being developed all the the time fast growers are Uzi, Leola,Zarela and a few more,also steddom is suppose to be a hair better than toro canyon.

[@AvocadoTalk]

I actually got some different rootstock I'll trying, Zerala. I should have kept Leola but someone really wanted it so I felt bad and sold it.

[@RareAvoTrees]

@@AvocadoTalk nice I hope the zerala grows fast and big for you

Awesome pick up! I've been looking for a Nabal, Carmen and Sharwil but haven't been able to fine them. If you still room in your order I will greatly appreciate if you can add them. By the way that IPA 👌🏼

I'm trying to grow Nabal in Florida. I was told they don't like the humidity and the taste is way off. I had to see that for myself as they come from Guatemala, so that should not be the case. You can't get those here!

[@JohnJohn-gt5mo]

Can you get hold of a gwen, having the hardest time locating one, they say April is usually when they become available. I've been to louie a few times, and pass through your area going to valleyview or pauma, let me know if you get a gwen, I'll take two 5 gallons. Thks

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Mark, someone bought them all, might be getting some later in the year or next. Also, GEM and Gwen were gone quickly. I should have committed to doing this earlier. Could have scored.

[@felixchin1438]

What fertiliser do you use to stimulate flowers and fruits?

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Felix, I recommend using ones high in P in the N-P-K, so for examples: Vigoro All Season Bold Blooms Flowering Plant Food (15-30-15) If you want to go organic use: DR. EARTH Organic Flower Girl Bud and Bloom Fertilizer. Look for purple color bags which typically are set for higher P values. I plan to apply this in January. Thanks for watching!

[@felixchin1438]

Thank you for your advise. How often do you apply? I only have 6 young avocado fruits trees. Too bad we don't have this variety like yours. I live in Malaysia.

[@AvocadoTalk]

@@felixchin1438 last year I fertilizer my young avocado trees 6 times. Every 2 months but not a high amount, about half the amount and more often. There are a lot of good varieties, I'm sure you have access to some that I can't. Good luck and keep going, avocados are really good and I'm glad you are growing them in Malaysia.

[@felixchin1438]

Thank you for your Golden advise. I will follow up with your guidance.

Hi - I live in the Los Angeles area and if it's not too late, I'd like to order 2 of the Nabal Avocado trees on the Toro Canyon Rootstock. I can drive over to pick them up when they are ready. Hopefully I"m not too late. Thank You - Michael

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Michael, sorry it's too late, I had to close it to secure as many as possible. Nabal both Toro and Dusa sold out also, I was looking to add another also. I'm planning to do it again and provide people more time. Thanks for watching!

[@organicgardening5989]

How do i identify avocados varieties by looking to the leaves

[@AvocadoTalk]

Hi Organic G, There are only 3 that I can tell by their leaves like Bacon, Anaheim, and Nabal. Some you can use the new growth young leaf color plus stem color to identify like Kona. Another way would be using flower characteristics A vs B and when the female open. Finally fruit characteristics is the best. If you have a grafted tree, you add all of this up and you could get a good idea what it is. Good luck and thanks for watching!
