Avocados can be fussy when transplanting into the ground. But once it establishes it self, the tree will grow like a weed. I love your advice. It's simple and to the point. I don't think people realize how hardy these trees become once established (no freezing winters of course lol)

Thanks for posting this. I love avocados, and had wanted to plant one (or two!) - but did not want a huge tree. This video, like your mango videos, made me realize it IS possible for a homeowner to keep a few trees without the yard turning into a jungle. Had watched many of your videos (over and over again!) when planting mango trees a couple of years ago. They have been a major inspiration. I follow your suggestions on tip pruning every 20 inches or so, and send links to your videos to people who argue it is not possible to keep mango trees small.

I am on the Gulf in FL zone 10 & have a FL Avo tree. This year was the first time i harvested avacados and wondered the optimum time to pick them? They got bigger and bigger but not soft! They were giant! Not too flavorful like a Haas. The branches seem to heavy for the tree. They bend low w/o fruit on them and I'm worried when fruit comes they will break off the trunk. I didn't prune after the fruit was picked - when should I prune? What avo is the most flavorful for Florida? Thanks!

It was 5' tall & 1.5' wide then, but didn't thrive.This summer it put out many new branches & is now 9' tall.One of the branches grows about 3' from the ground straight out & 5' long,1" in diameter where it comes off the trunk.The trunk is only 1.5" in diameter at that point.The branch seems too heavy for the tree to support.Is it OK to prune now (Aug) & how far back should I prune it?

Hello, Just purchased a house with a huge avocado tree that hasn't given fruit since the the owner passed five or six years ago. It's maybe thirty foot tall with huge branches, I had someone trim it back and it's starting to show new signs of life. However it's so tall we'd never be able to get the fruit, can we cut some of the large branches down without hurting it?

I have a Reed that is about 4-5 years old, about 6-7 feet tall, and has yet only had little baby avocados that haven't made it to maturity in the past 2 years. It's definitely grown and healthy, but the central leader is somewhat skinny at the top, and there seems to be a hardened piece of leader and above that a weak point, where the entire 1-2 feet above that point bends over a lot with the wind, almost to horizontal. My question is, should I cut that leader off below that hardened wood? Would that then force a new leader to start at that point? or would that stunt the height of my tree?.. Thanks!

nice work Richard I have a small dwarf Hass about 2-3 years old and about 3 feet tall. It has many branches shooting wide . Do you think its a good idea to reduce the branches and shape the tree now? The thickest main branches form a Y shape, with many other random branches shooting off the main stem. Should I form the trunk shape now for later, or is it such with avocado that they don't follow any shape and just grow scraggly and random?

Israel's Blessing having a healthy happy tree will help the tree hold more fruit. But sometimes Mother Nature can put stress we can’t control that will contribute to loss of fruit. As well avocado is known to start with many fruit and dropping a huge amount of them as the tree ages it will hold more fruit as well. Cheers

@fairchildgarden
@fairchildgarden 6 жыл бұрын
Hello, Thank you so much for your question! We've sent it over to our certified arborist here at Fairchild, Nat, and he says that it really depends. You should cut branches back to the parent limbs (the main branch where it is stemming from). However, since it is also an avocado tree, growers often cut back to the nubs all the time. If the nub that ends up getting left behind contributes to the shape of the tree - feel free to leave it. But if you'd like to cut back to the parent limb and it looks okay- then it's okay to do that. Because it's an avocado and (if you do live in Miami / are in a tropical climate), the climate allows vigorous year-round growth, which means that either way works! Please let us know if you have any other questions! - Fairchild

I have an avo tree in my courtyard, so naturally I want to keep it as small as possible. Is it true that keeping the tree pruned and especially the canopy narrow, will also control root expansion? I am a bit afraid of the roots going too far and damaging stuff. Currently it is about 12 feet from the house. Great video, by the way! Makes me feel much better about trimming my tree, I was scared to cut anything, but knew I had to in order to be able to keep it.

Most avocados are grafted onto different trunks nowadays, especially if they're sold commercially. An avocado graft will probably fruit a different type of avocado &/or may even be a very different tree (size/height) so I would suggest it'd be best to go back to the nursery and ask what it was grafted on to.

Kate Reese Grafted trees need to be watched and anything sprouting out below the area of the graft, leaves, branches, new trunks, whatever, needs to be removed ASAP. The thing with grafted avacadoes is that they are grafted onto stronger rootstock to make them hardier plants. If you don't keep the grafted rootstock as nothing BUT lower trunk and roots, once it establishes a upper trunk and branches of it's own, it kills the graft. Then you have a tree that is no longer an avacado tree, but is whatever they used as a root graft instead.

I live in the Caribbean and find that then I prune a tree it skips a year of fruit. It's like the branches have to be a certain age to produce so I'm always nervous about pruning. I have a grafted avocado tree and I just picked the last one. I cut on two main branches that had avocados (because the neighbor complained!) but left three. I'm hoping that next year the old branches will produce and the new ones will grow. Then I will cut the old branches so that the following year the branches I cut now will produce fruit and the ones I cut will grow. I don't know if this will work. What is the correct time to prune?

"Be a very good green person and sleep welll..." Ha, ha. Such a subtle sarcasm...And I agree. Trees not taller than 3 meters or 10 feet, and do not be that selective (hesitant). Yo can not spend one hour in a single tree. Actually, prunning is an art of sculpture, with the advantage that yo can revert the possible mistakes next year, with light ore medium pruning.

Do you know the transpiration pull of plants? Overpruning cause plant roots stunned. Plants' roots will not absorbed plenty of water in the soil due to transpiration pull --- plants roots absorb water from root system to leaves. Plants' height should be maintained frequently (by light-pruning), in order to reduce damage to plants.

I have a 20-25 ft. tree that more or less looks like it has died (no leaves), a lot of deadwood it appears... it still has new green limbs sprouting and growing at about the 6 foot height range. Is it still salvageable? Would you recommend pruning all the deadwood at the top off or just some or none. I'm confused about the process and would love to be able to save the tree. I can submit a picture to an email address if you want? Thanks for any and all information you may have on the matter.

I have a spindly tree (from seed) growing in a pot. I've had to tie it up to keep it from falling over. Wondering how to prune so the limbs can be fully supported by the trunk. How far back can I prune for example? Appreciate your help.

How do I get my 5-year old avocado (planted from seed) to fruit? I have pruned it a few times. But it is still not fruiting. I’m writing from 🇲🇾 Malaysia.
@grantbrown8702

Wait another two years. Avocado grown from seed take around 7 years to fruit. Also, when grown from seed, your tree will not produce fruit true to the seed planted. They will take attributes from the Mother tree and the Father tree, and produce a new fruit. Good luck 😉

What Grant Brown said is true. OR you could graft it with the variety you want & get the variety of fruit you want as early as the next season. Whatever you want

Dont wait any longer, have your tree grafted immediately and prune down the tree you have before grafting it! Have a specialict from a nearby nursery do that for you

I tried this and was very disappointed - it's not thorough enough. My trees roared back too dense and the crop was average. I learned that you have to create windows of light for the blossoms and growing fruit. The demo tree is very small and perhaps not the best choice for this video.

@@Antesdelfinadmin Totally agree. I have 6-8 trees on my property (in Southern California) many years old and they grow fast ! One is about 30 ft high. Also they grow very 'gangly' and the branches droop down on the ground and/or risk breaking off. Important to keep the growth manageable and make sure a branch isn't going to fall on someone ! Less critical if your tree is only a few feet high...
