When is Avocado Fruit RIPE & Ready to be Picked from the Tree

[@anthonyz5671]

That's what I'm talking about. Straight and to the point.

[@moonbeam2951]

Thank you so much. Just plucked my very first avacodo. 😊

[@SukraSukriya]

How long does it take for an avacoda to be mature enough to pick it starting from uts intial flower stage:?

[@cscott50]

We love your channel. My wife buys Avocados at the store as our climate won't let us grow them. They are not cheap and can get very pricey at times. When my wife buys several of them because of the price she can slow the ripening by putting them in the refrigerator. It allows us to use them as needed so that they don't over ripe before use. It really helps us during the winter. Sometimes the Avocados are so hard and take quite a bit of time to ripen, but usually within 5 days they turn quickly. We love them every morning in smoothies and sometimes at night in salads.

Hi cscott have you become a flat earther yet? If not I suggest watch a 13 part series called _What on earth happened_ by Ewaranon to learn that the earth is not a globe. I got it in my about tab.

[@kalapravda794]

very useful pointers. I live in Los Angeles and picked a few avocados from a giant tree from my friend's backyard. They feel kinda rubbery after keeping them on my kitchen counter for 5 days. Will get more later on using your tips. Good on ya, mate!!!

[@AllotmentGrowHow]

Hi Mark, that avo at 2:03 looked like the perfect specimen. If only we could grow em here in the UK. Years ago when I lived abroad as a kid in a country that had a very warm climate... my dad grew an avo tree from seed. He nurtured it, planted the seedling and took care of the plant until it was about 3 ft high and was just starting to form it's first fruit..... then we left and moved back to the UK. Aarrrggghhh - so we almost grew an avocado from start to finish. Cheers Adam

[@Proud_Texan]

You can. Go to fast growing trees and buy the indoor, Condo Avacado Tree

[@juanaperez-gl2zw]

Thank you for your information when to pick my Avocados from the tree

[@avedafaye1366]

Excellent video! I plan on attempting soon to grow some avocado from pits I've saved, so this is timely information for me! 🥑💖

[@redpilled218]

Avocados grown from seed will not grow true to the mother and take somewhere bewteen 10 to 15 years to fruit and may never fruit. Get a grafted avocado or plant the seed and then graft it yourself from a grafted avocado tree if you know someone who has one.

[@azharmohammed0]

I wait for it to fall from the tree and everyday, morning and evening I check to see if any have fallen and those are always good avocados to begin ripening.

[@africanhomestead]

Thanks for the tips! I have three avocado trees here in Liberia and 10 more that I’m growing from seed. Here, the locals just harvest them when they look big enough, which usually works out. They seem to have a pretty large harvesting window and are pretty forgiving.

[@rajeshjha1681]

Now this is called a true info., as I was not expecting the perfect ending, I just thought he will end up his speech by showing the raw avocado in his whole video.

[@Laannabanann]

Thank you! You confirmed what im doing is correct 👍.

[@Teegank1]

Haha, this is all well and good, but my tree only has 2 avocados on! If I pick one and it's not ripe I risk missing out on half of my crop! I think they're getting close though. I'm assuming it's normal for a tree to only produce a couple in it's first year of fruiting?

[@scarlettnarvdah2614]

Pick it up raw and hard and put the avocado fruit under the warm blanket for 3-5 days to perfectly ripe

[@mignonetterifus8381]

Question for anyone who knows the answer! I like my bananas very yellow while it’s not so sweet when it ripens then it’s to sweet for me. Do I have the same choice with an avocado? Eat it firmer or when it’s mushy? Thank you!

[@loricoil1732]

I have a hoss in my yard. Harvested over 100 avocados last year. Those are the ones the squirrels didn't get. This year so far I have 4 on the tree. Lol

[@louismcglothlin9869]

FYI in Florida I get used golf balls, paint them green, attached length of wire and put them in my trees. Squirrels learn they are no good to eat and I don't have a squirrel problem.

[@sallym1342]

What is the name of this variety? I have the exact one in my backyard!

[@stevebrandenburg3685]

Thanks for the video. Quick question for you. When you remove an avocado from the tree, do you cut the stem at the top of the fruit? at the top of the stem nearest to the branch? in the middle of the stem? or does it really matter where? Thanks

[@g..n.4700]

I so love ❤️ avocado 🥑. I eat one daily.

[@slowboat6021]

what type of avo is that Mark? we have Fuerte, from the one tree we get 200+ every year, they have a thin skin and the rule of thumb we were told is its ready to eat when its softer than your nose and firmer than your cheek. we pick them when the stalk starts to darken.

How long does it take avacoda to ripe all over from intial stage of it being a flower to be big enough to pick it ,?

[@bettydunne232]

Hi i grew a Avocado tree from the seed its about 3.5 years old and is now fruiting is it true that you should wait till the 3rd season before eating the Avocados i was told that the first lot should not be eaten

[@CarolAnn61]

I have 2 grafted avo trees. I cut a branch off one to get a main centre trunk. It’s doing well and is quite tall. The other also looks to have a branch that I could remove. It’s looking more bushy though and I have staked it and have them tied to this stake. The branches don’t look as strong as the other tree. Should I take off the weaker branch?

[@Riceandbeans7]

The avocado tree looks small and is already producing fruit. How old is the tree? Thanks for sharing.

[@dougveganparadisebuilder5808]

Grafted avocados can fruit as quickly as within two years. This one for sure is grafted.

Will an avocado that fell from tree too early ripen? Half the size of usual mature fruit. Another 2-3 months.

Hi, I saw your comment on Sunny Lenarduzzi's video on the 7 KZbin hacks that work and thought to say hi and give your channel some love. I loooooooooooooove avocados. In Brazil they are huge. In Germany they are tiny. I think the one in your video is about the medium size. Stop by one of my videos and say hi, especially if you like to get inspired, motivated or just want to laugh with me and my daughter. You are definitely invited. ;-)

[@paulredinger5830]

Better way to check for ripeness without bruising the fruit if it’s not ripe yet. Hold in you hand with the fruit up right. Where the stem entered into the fruit use your thumb while holding the fruit. Put your thumb where the stem entered and push it down a bit the ripper the fruit the easier to push the flesh in. This has never failed me yet. So when the shops have 2-$5 bucks or those kinds of deals I can get one for now and one for later. If you can’t push the flesh in at all don’t get it. It’ll take weeks to get ripe. I get one that is slightly soft, and one that’s very soft. Especially if I’m using one within a couple days. Then the others ready in about a week. My wife likes them with her chicken anything. If you only use half of one. Leave the seed in and in a container or sandwich bag of water make sure it’s under the water. No air getting to it and it will give you 2 or 3 days before it goes brown to eat it. I usually use that one and make like a spread out of it. Just smash it up with a fork.
