This was a terrific video, and I'd like to thank Luke for generously sharing his knowledge. Thanks, John, for asking all the right questions so "newcomers" could be thoroughly informed to get started.
I Love your channel. You are so knowledgeable, and you interview the most interesting guests. I know what you mean about finding a life partner who shares you Love of horticultural. If you were older, you'd have to chase me off with a stick. Don't give up, and don't settle for someone who doesn't mesh well with your hopes and dreams. I pray you find the one that God made specifically for you. Btw, if you are a Sun sign Cancer or rising sing sign Cancer, the best time to keep your eyes open for Miss Right is in mid May (May 16-20). If you can travel, join (any type of) classes or get involved in a church, love could be waiting (just around the corner🤩). Hopefully, you will be under astral influences that draw in the right person😉😍😇. Best of Luv/Luck to you and your future spouse. Big hugs from your green friend in Texas🤩🤗😉
Luk wrote me back right away but, it seems I need a green house to grow avocados in my hood, SW Washington. Oh well, i can dream about having a green house too! Meanwhile, I can fantasize about being single andten years younger John😍
Have been planning a trip to A Natural Farm for tomorrow on my way home from Tampa to middle Georgia. Was just telling friend I'm staying with that I found out about it from you, and how they have lots of organic cultivars that I haven't seen elsewhere. Then I see I just missed you by a few days! Oh well. Still very looking forward to going there tomorrow. Last time I went for organic dragon fruit, this time for an organic olive tree.
Had a weird dream I met you last night. Thanked you for all the help from your videos. Guess I will properly thank you since that was a dream lol. Thanks for the videos they have helped me out greatly!
When I am so cold in the winter and am checking the temps. it always gets colder right around dawn.There is a variety that will fruit twice a year, maybe Carmen IDK. Some people spray sugar water on the blossoms if you have any orange trees or apple trees around bees will ignore the avocado and go to the sweeter blossoms.
This is a GREAT video!!! Very informative. I don’t know if I missed it but I have two questions. 1) are the avocado varieties only one type of pollinator? Are ALL Mexicolas Type A are ALL Lilas Type A or B? 2) is it required to get both types, A & B to get fruits from your tree or will you a single tree still produce fruit without a mate but maybe only less fruits? One more question to piggy back off the first question, IF a variety produces both A & B trees, how do you know which is A and which is B? Thank you in advance for the information and for making these great videos!!!
I moved north from Palm Beach County to around Jacksonville. Miss my avocado and mango treea. What avocados are suitable for almost Georgia? I would imagine the reallu big ones from south Florida would not like the weather.
We used to have a very old avocado tree in Rialto California. It was so big, it stayed green all year even when smaller trees lost their leaves. It was taken out when the house became a parking lot for a bank on Route 66
I’ve heard instances of this with other fruit trees. A certain tree is removed because of ignorance or development. Of course, some other nursery “has the same variety”. But, turns out that individual tree actually was displaying different valuable characteristics… but who cares, right?
John, early in the video you implied that avocados loose their leaves in the winter. Avocados do not loose their leaves in the winter. They are not deciduous, they are evergreen. They can and will defoliate when they get too cold. If that happens, the tips will die back and if it still gets too cold, they will die of cold or from root rot later in the winter or early spring.
Hi John, I’m newer to your videos . I have a horrible problem with gophers. I tried taking some of your advice for a lady with a different problem and I got some of the grocery store black plastic garden bins to sink into my planter and fill them with dirt. Well, those disgusting little gophers chewed through the plastic vegetable bins. What can I do? Is there any kind of wire product that I can use for my above ground planters ? I found one item there a type of mesh gallon bag to plant your plants into but I want to put in a new raised garden bed and I’d like to have some thing underneath that planter. Is there any kind of mesh fabric that I can spread underneath the planter before I fill it with dirt and vegetables?
John lots of great info here! Are you not wearing a microphone 🎤? I notice you have to yell at the top of your lungs to get your points across. You are sharp and have a keen eye 👁!
Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make Mistake but they don’t quit... As the economic crisis keep rising, we literally need to have different streams of income. The crypto market has plenty opportunities to earn a decent Payouts with the right skills and proper Understanding of how the market works.
Yeah you're absolutely right..... Lots of people are still making massive profits from the stock and crypto market, all you really need is some relevant information and some professional advice. It is totally inappropriate for investors to stand by as they take dips during significant market diclinism
@@castroolivia7544 A good investment requires experience and knowledge to carry out a successful operation. Professionally, it is recommended to trade with experienced brokers, who can help you increase your profits while helping you learn the trade
Well I invest with a top trader Investor Ashton Edwards you might have heard of him.. I can correctly say he's the best top trader in the world, an investment advisor as his diversification skills are great, I say this because i see that in his results as my portfolio grows by averages of 25% to 35% on a weekly basis, unlike i can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what he place and not just on some particular industries of my choosing. He gave me that financial freedom I needed
@@castroolivia7544 Honestly I really need help with learning how to trade. Seeing my portfolio low makes me very sad. Please do you mind sharing any means of reaching out to him easily?
❤John, I'm a very hard worker 💪, positive, and love 🥰 gardening 👩🌾🌱🍎🌿🥑🌻🌳 and animals 🐰🐥🐐🐟 🐑🐕🐴, but it seems like you know quite a bit about everything. What could I contribute? 😻💞 P.S. This is an old picture. My hair is a bit darker and much longer and I usually don't wear that much makeup. And we live kinda close to each other.
@@pagevpetty not sure... this was years back, i just remember it went something like.... she harvested a piece of lettuce incorrectly & he responded "obviously we want different things in life"....😆
Love your videos man, buuut😏....maybe if you featured more female growers or female-led/co-led farms, you might find that "partner of your dreams"!!! 😉 1 month of intentionally female features just might do the trick! Document the process! Who knows what could emerge?! DM if you're interested in exploring the idea.
Hy John. Avocado tree is very tuff grow because of their susceptibility to roots diceases. Doesn t like the hard soil, clay soil, should be planted by half over the soil to prevent from over excess moisture, susceptible from wind tolerance...should planting A and B to get fruits. For me fruits tree to plant in a big garden as an expérimentation.
I have three Avocado trees, one in very heavy clay soil seven foot tall. I mixed some sand into the ground, and it is happy! The other two are only three feet tall, so I am waiting to plant them after they get bigger, I will probably build a sand mound for those. I am in northern California; we just had a lot of rain on and off for weeks. So, to help prevent root rot. I gave them some Osmocote to put the nitrogen back into the soil along with some gypsum. I was told they like gypsum!
You might want to get them a pollinator, or spray sugar on the flowers to draw the bees. If you have any citrus in your yard, the bees will go to those and ignore the Avocados.

My dream is to have an avocado tree. Thank you for giving me some hope in my cold climate!

You'll never have oneunless you plant one actions speak lauder than words
Brought my avacado trees in last fall and they lost all their leaves but still alive! Gonna try to put them out soon. North Mississippi
Nice interview with Luke.😊
Smaller trees makes it easier to picktoo.😊
Awesome, very inspiration, much wow!
I have this crazy dream of growing a couple avocado trees in SC, I’m going to try it with the coldest hardy varieties.

Here in south Texas I have a Joey and a Mexicola just planted this fall.
First time watching you live, stream looks fire
Thank you for sharing your passion, I learned a ton from you over the years.👍
What root stock does a natural farm use?
John, I loved this video. Ty to Luc as well! I’ll be ordering soon! 💜
Awesome video John! That place is only 20 minutes from me, so I'll be checking it out. Thanks!
Had a weird dream I met you last night. Thanked you for all the help from your videos. Guess I will properly thank you since that was a dream lol. Thanks for the videos they have helped me out greatly!
Wow! That's great progress! So, for fertilizing,u only use gypsum?

John can you make a video that focuses on his turmeric and galangal. I do buy from this farm already.
That is what I call passion :D
Wow! Your page grew! Congratulations

And will it give fruits by proper care in the Netherland???

Any success stories of growing avocados north of Macon, GA?
John, early in the video you implied that avocados loose their leaves in the winter. Avocados do not loose their leaves in the winter. They are not deciduous, they are evergreen. They can and will defoliate when they get too cold. If that happens, the tips will die back and if it still gets too cold, they will die of cold or from root rot later in the winter or early spring.
The website doesn't say if they are type A or B. I don't know what to order that would pair well with a fantastic.
Do a you tube search for
“avocado trees. Growing and grafting. A natural farm”.
They just recently posted a 45 minute video on avocado
Fantastic is an A type. I assume u live in a cooler climate. Some cold tolerant B types are Wilma(brazos belle), Joey, Poncho, Brogdon. ☺️
Thank you 🙏 🥑🙏

Se are we going to see ads that end with Avacados from New England? 😆
I cut the black part off my little cado tree.. I should have left it to reabsorb the nutrients but it’s still doing good as a little bush lol
You probably did the right thing.
Lila is a dwarf and is only going to be abt 12ft
I have tried growing avocado trees before but they would only get about a foot or two tall then died. :( I am near San Antonio, Texas, - Heidi
