I always learn something new from these classes, in gardening, you never stop learning.
Gary... it might be good to repeat the questions so we can relate the answers. Cheers enjoyable.

This is so informative, i have learned so much i will need to watch again and write all this down. thank you so much for the video and knowledge! first year garden grower and im loving everything about this
Thank you, Garry! Very informative video.
Thank you, Gary. Just bought a GEM from your nursery yesterday. Trying to find more info on how to plant it. Hoping to come to class next Saturday. Thank you for your videos I’ve learned a lot and I appreciate the time you put into them thank you
Re-watching this again in Dec 2021. Great refresher.
Audio is great on this video, great improvement...thank you💜💜💜
I absolutely love these videos. They are so informative. My avocado collection consists of Hass, Bacon, Lamb Hass, & Mexicola. Looking to add Reed, Carmen & GEM to my collection.
I have bacon and fuerte. I am looking to buy or swap cuttings of other varieties. I have heaps of seedling avo trees I have grown from seed which I want to turn into multi grafted/variety trees. I don’t have the room sadly to grow one of each full tree. So I will be just growing some in pots and some in ground with multi grafts on each of them. I live in aus and omg I can’t find anyone who sells cuttings, it’s so annoying having to buy a full tree every time I want a cutting. I have many fruit trees I have bought form nursery’s and spent more money than it’s worth even growing the fruit 🤦♀️ and i have a lot of health issues so I am trying to save money and grow healthy food. Ya can’t save money when the the trees are super expensive and may not even survive my climate. So I wish people would swap or sell people cuttings so we can all help other gardeners out. I’m sure it’s prob not legal to send cuttings over seas due to pests and diseases otherwise I would have some by now.
Thank you.
Thank you! Excellent.
Thank you Gary for the information. 1 question do I have to plant 2 trees, is there a avocado tree you can plant tree, I am running out of space in my back yard. Thanks again!!! Lula
Great info! Thanks
Tropical tree. Good drainage. Good ground soil. Lots of water. Lots of sun. There's still no way you can effectively grow a couple of these trees in a NYC apartment. There's a reason why avocado production is only in certain parts of the world. They don't grow bananas in Alaska. If you really want a few avocados, producing fruit......you have to live where they can grow.
42 degrees in Western Australia yesterday. Hass still holding his head high, fuerte looks like it’s growing branches from its leaves?!
Good stuff, great audio. Any foliar applications that can be applied during hot periods that will reduce stress? Beside the expensive IV organic white wash
pinball000 water water water if humidity drops they need lots of water heavy drinkers hate low humidity thick mulch. If your tree or trees looked stressed or dropping leaves needs more water .
Hi mate did you want to swap some cuttings with me via post? Or I can pay you for some avi scions. I have some avo trees also, looking for hass and other varieties for cuttings for grafting. I can’t find anyone who will help me, I don’t want to buy another tree just for a cutting( just bought a fuerte and I didn’t want to but I couldn’t get a cutting) when i have bad health and not much money. I have spent a fortune on my garden, fruit trees etc already and I have heaps of avo seedlings I have grown and I want to graft them with a few types on the one tree cos I don’t have the room for heaps of avocado trees. I have bacon and fuerte plus my seedlings. If you can help me I will send you some cuttings of fruit trees,herbs etc too. If you don’t want any cuttings I can just pay for some cuttings and the postage? Cheers
What area of WA are you in? Perth would be a good climate for avos I would think. Always wanted to live there but my daughter won’t move lol so I’m stuck in Victoria.
becksta29 hey mate, my avocados aren’t quite old enough to be hacking limbs off yet, I’m doing the same as yourself and have gone avocado mad. There’s a channel called real life fruitopia or organic gardening Melbourne, both in Melbourne. Maybe they could help seeing the current circumstances with boarders etc
My avocado, 10 yr old tree, never gets watered and it fruited every year. My son cut down, I have 4 cuttings rooting.
I am happy to see that you added a part about clonal rootstock, even if most of them are not available to the public. I have studied Brokaw's method, and I have read about it in my avocado textbook. But what I do not understand, is where the clonal rootstock scion(?), like Dusa, comes from? Is it a single tree that Brokaw has? Or are their many grafted Dusa avocado trees out there? If so, what kind of fruit does a Dusa tree produce?
They have multiple grafted Dusa trees. One tree can't make enough scions.
@@bradspaugh9827 Thanks, Brad. So who out there has their own Dusa tree?!
@@ryanprijic1343 the people who own the patents. Brokaw I assume.
I have also read lots of feedback and literature that portrayed Holiday as a very bad or inconsistent producer. And it matures so late in the season (fall in so cal) that is needs the most time on the tree than any other variety. Like 16-18 months. In any case, I have 5 varieties planted, and have zero interest in planting Holiday based on everything I have read.
Sorry for the late reply. For 20 years the two wholesale growers licensed to grow and sell Holiday used a container mix that is certain to cause root rot disease. If the unknowing homeowner did not compensate (by growing in a very permeable medium--like sand) the trees would die from rot within a year or two. Unfortunately it gave Holiday an undeserved bad reputation. My own Holiday tree is quite impressive at just over 2 years beyond being grafted. Its currently about 4' high and wide and very full with hundreds of leaves. It set 2 fruit at 1 year of age.
Thank you for sharing! Very informative video just like any other video of yours ! Much appreciate!
At video marker 1hr21min36sec can you please explain who is "they" and why won't "they" allow homeowners to plant GEM avacado since they are the best and perfect version of the hass ?
And perhaps on a different video or you could simply drive into telling us a little more about the GEM (gray edward martin) avacado ie any care tips plant tips etc. Thank you so much
Reed is the best!
The Reed is definitely one of the better ones! Yum!
I recently bought and planted a Reed which I found at Walmart (in Oceanside, CA on Marron road near College and Lake). The Reed was the last of nine other varieties that I squeezed into my yard in the last year. Verified good drainage at the planting site, planted in a Root-Guard gopher basket, I piled the mulch/wood chips around it, planted the roots in plain dirt, whitewashed the trunks, positioned micro-sprinklers, I pinched off all of the flowers about three weeks ago (the Reed had plenty of flowers). But all of the leaves have fallen off the Reed and it is bare, same thing happened to the Hass months ago but it was planted 6 months earlier and has since grown plenty of new leaves. I am going to cover the Reed with shade cloth since it is the end of April and the sun is getting hotter. Why does this happen? What else can I do to help it?
Richard Mang Reed does that every spring. It’s normal. All the energy to produce flowers is sucked from the leaves, so the leaves wither and fall off eventually
@@AJTheGraftMan Thanks for the encouraging words. The Reed is growing back vigorously now, although the top few inches of the tree have dried up and died. It is sending out three new shoots from just below the dead part but it is well above the graft so the shoots are definitely Reed and not root-stock. The whole tree is only about two feet tall so it has a long way to go before I let it set any flowers in the future.
Can i preorder a Carmen liner plant? Maybe 3
Hi , great video , could you please tell me where the Brokaw nurseries sell avocados in Australia. thanck you
As the grand solar minimum intensifies, it would be interesting to research the Spanish missions records, if any on growing trends that can tell us what they experienced on the crops they grew. The 200 and 400 year cycles of past low sunspot activity most likely will tell us what to expect and what to grow. I am leaning on adding more stone fruit if I knew that the cold hours would be there
Im interested in Top pot soil for my miracle fruit and my Duke avocados. Do you ship or can you tell me how to buy it and where im in oregon
Gawd that seems like a lot of work for a clonal rootstock
The guy's voice doesn't match the way he looks at all. I expected him to sound like mr. Miyagi.
Without watching the video, if I was just listening to his voice, I would picture an old fat man with a mustache and a cowboy hat.
Great video I learned a lot, thank you.
what are the names of the products that you had mentioned? Im interested in the garden phosphorous
Now, you are lazy .He clearly mentioned it in the video...just rewind.
@@valchris11 right. I would like to know what the brand it is. hard to see and can't google search that particular bottle he is holding up
The 6-2-4 fertilizer is "Down to Earth" brand
Phosphorus is "Garden Phos". Exactly what he said
@@cathykrueger1035 Thanks for this. Found it earlier, but I still appreciate your help
I have tried Ettinger. Not good. No where close to the excellent taste fo Fuerte.
How come you can’t do citrus in Southern cal?
There is a quarantine in place to attempt to stop the spread of a fatal citrus tree disease called HLB or Greening Disease. This has totally infested most citrus growing areas of the World but has yet to get to orchards in California, Arizona and Chile. The disease is in Southern California and the state is trying to keep it from moving out of infested areas into the commercial orchards. We are located within a quarantine zone and are not allowed to have citrus trees in containers at our facility. The quarantine zone map is on the CDFA (California Department of Food & Agriculture) website.
Nasty green snot pears.
