Nice award ceremony. Cool to see the winners and other categories but I mean these clusters are amazing 12:34 !
I just hope they taste good, if so then I'll be grafting more. Thanks for watching!
wow, the growth on those trees. I love it! Some of mine are just starting to flower this week.
Hello SleepyLizard, starting to get some flowers too but more to come as it starts to warm up. It has been wet this year so I'm curious to see how thing differ. Thanks for watching!
@@AvocadoTalk you're welcome an actually I misspoke. I walked the grove today and only one of my avocado trees has started to flower. and it's always been a tree that stood out as a little different but I just thought it was a monroe but maybe a little developmentally behind because the fruit are always a little lighter and smaller. Now that I see it's on a different flowering schedule I'm pretty sure it's a different variety that I haven't identified yet. I didn't plant it.
Great video..!! Thank you for sharing my friend 👍👍👍
Thank you for watching my friend!
Great video REM! Your avocado trees are looking great! Have to look into adding a SC Gold to my collection as well. Two thumbs up on the video!
SC Gold for the win, definitely recommend. Hopefully I'll have enough in the future to share.
I agree
@@SleepyLizard SC was good, might be worth having in FL.
@@AvocadoTalk maybe we can work out a trade of some cuttings 🤔
@@SleepyLizard I'm in, let's do it!
Sheeeesh, good stuff brother 💪🏼
Hook you up with some avocados soon. Thanks for watching!
Hey REM - Now that was a fun contest and variety review! Once all your trees reach a point of more consistent production, etc., you're going to have a tidal wave of avocados!! You already have quite a bit even now. I'm amazed at how well your Kona Sharwil responded to your rehab efforts. It looks great. I just received a few Sampong and Lula avocados which I ordered from Lara Farms in Florida. I'm just trying out different varieties that are different from what is grown here in CA, and see which ones I like. I"m also still looking for that Oro Negro Avocado. Happy New Year!
Happy new years, I'll planning to graft Oro Negro this spring. Thanks for watching!
@@AvocadoTalk Where are you getting the cutting for the Oro Negro?
@@neurocognitive a friend who has a lot of avocados too. He lives close and he actually has some fruit that we're going to try. We will find a way to share.
@@AvocadoTalk Excuse my ignorance, but how does the grafting work? You start with a seed from a variety you use for rootstock, then wait for it to grow a stalk, and then graft the desired variety to that new stock? Do I have that right? I know with my fig trees I develop rootstock from propagating a stick cutting, and then after 1 year, I can then graft a cutting from a desired variety of fig onto that rootstock. But I guess with avocados you have to start from a seed?
@@neurocognitive Yep, the industry typically starts with a seed and most times it is a Zutano seed. After it grows enough with a thick enough stem then a scion wood of a known variety is grafted onto the Zutano seedling via a cleft graft.
Brokaw Clonal Rootstock starts off with a seed to but then the rootstock is grafted and then the final variety is grafted on to that. 2 grafts, more time and money but worth it since the final rootstock is known.
Same, my nabal was my most disappointing. Planted it this year and looks similar to yours. Hopefully just trying to adjust/root establish then take off next year 🤞
Good luck, I think mine is just related to the spot it is in. Thanks for watching!
Thanks! I enjoyed that.
Thanks for watching...I enjoy watching your videos too. Interesting to see the difference in region.
@@AvocadoTalk 👍Likewise! It's amazing how quickly yours grow! The cold winter really slows things down for us. I enjoyed your results as well as your rare collection. I can see why Hass is still the King.
Hass is the king in my SoCal trees at my parents place as well as my place in Bay Area. If I could only plants 3 Trees it must be Hass - Reed - Fuerte
@@SVmathfarmer What city in the bay? Close to the coast? I ask because it seems like the local Hass (inland in Concord & Brentwood) I have had weren't all that great except the ones from Santa Cruz.
By the way, those are the same 3 Greg Alder recommends for his area.
Question about the Sharwil, have you eaten one yet? I'm told they are delicious.
From what I remember, the one and only one I had was delicious. This is why I'm working really hard to get more. Do you have access to Sharwil in FL?
@@AvocadoTalk Sorry to bombard you with questions but I was also under the impression these were only grown on one farm in Hawaii and patented and closely guarded so nobody else can grow their own. Is that true?
@@SleepyLizard Nope, available and highly sought after out here. I just spoke with a friend today that bought one for a neighbor so he can eventually get some fruit because he has no room.
@@AvocadoTalk ah ok, I had heard they were under lock and key. The buzz it that it's the most delicious variety out there.
Just to chime in as REM knows, Brokaw propagates them so anybody can get the best quality Sharwils from the masters themselves.
Can you please share this with the Southern California Backyard Avocado Growers group? Great video, as always. I enjoy seeing your trees and the fact you admit some failures or challenges.
Hi Sam, looks like they kicked me out of that group.
Why?
@@xrsjohnm I don't know.
It was probably a technical issue, nothing personal did you ask the manager of the group? Its probably easily resolved
@@AvocadoTalk hi REM I think they are elitists. I requested to be in the group and never heard nada!
Entertaining video, great to see your trees doing so well, I like your hass esther, jan boyce, bacon, Zutano, the nabal and lamb hass the spot Maybe has bad drainage maybe try planting on a mound next time when you take them both out
The area drains well and they were planted a little higher but sunk down. I think it might be eucalyptus allopathy. We'll see, thanks for watching!
Eucalyptus sucks up a lot of water and nothing competes under its drip line plus it emits chemicals that inhibits growth of plants under it allelopathy
Try a bacon in that eucalyptus spot they compete well in my experience
I was thinking of my extra Carmen Hass. Or just a good old Hass. I like the bacon idea though. Thanks for watching!
@@AvocadoTalk keep up the great work there is an scarcity of good avocado tree related videos and you fill that void well 😁🌞
@@talaydanielastro thanks, it's been a fun hobby
Great update… Strange, I planted a lamb about a year ago and grew great up until about August and took a turn too. Just drought stress I think, hoping all this so cal rain helps the trees for a kick start before Spring
Yeah, a lot of new buds forming now so we'll see. I didn't protect it this year, just a little surround WP. Giving the lamb a chance but the Nabal will probably get taken out. Thanks for watching!
Great vid! How is your Ettinger doing? Put one in ground a few months ago!
Hi there, the Ettinger is doing great, flowers are starting to form, I expect more fruit this year compared to last. It's a good type "B", you should be happy with it. Good luck and thanks for watching!
I had a rodent problem as well. I set a bed of traps around my fig tree and the avocado tree they kept raiding. I used a couple of cut up figs in the traps, caught two rats and I haven't had any problems for a few months.
I'm good at catching gophers but haven't done the rat/mice traps yet. I need to invest in getting them out, they are going after my good varieties, they know which ones taste good. 😂lol...thanks for watching!
Hi REM awesome video I’ve been so damn busy with trees that I haven’t had time to watch until now. We’ve been getting slammed by wave after wave of storms with strong winds and I’ve had to keep a large number of trees protected with windscreens but it’s been a constant battle bc the ground is so saturated that the posts keep getting tilted to 45 degrees and have to be reset. Next 2 nights we are set to get hit by another bunch of big storms. I’ll send you a few pics of the latest harvests. Eating tons of Fuerte right now. Did a lot of pruning and in process lots of Reed and Hass fruit came off. Final batch of Mexicola harvested today. Crazy in your video about Nabal bc my Maddock Nabals are monsters and are all under 2 years old
Hi Pat, we've had a really wet winter so far and getting even more rain. I'm curious to see how this will affect the upcoming spring and fruit set. Good luck, should be a good year.
@@AvocadoTalk I just ate my first Hass of the season and it was really good! I wasn’t planning on trying any until February but I needed to prune the trees and some fruit came off.
@@SVmathfarmer Gotta take what mother nature gives you. I had a really early season Jan Boyce and it was already good. I can't wait to really try one that is ready. Hopefully I get it before the critter get it.
mahusay po kung ganon
Thanks for watching!
did the nabal has any big tree close to it?
Yeah, I'm having problems on my large Eucalyptus side. The Nabal, Fuerte, Lamb, and Mexicola seem to be struggling. I think it is probably allopathy. Plan it to pull it out and replace it with something different. Thanks for watching!
Where are you getting so many mislabeled trees?
The home Depot. Another at a local nursery. It wasn't their fault, the grower mislabeled it.
