“I’m just a guy who likes to stare at avocados more than a regular person” ❤. That makes two of us! Best past time in my opinion. Totally agree with Reed on heat and one of all time best overall. I’ve got 12 Reed trees and counting. We hit 115 recently and I had a few several year old trees in full sun who barely got any damage. Nabal kicking ass too. Of my 3 Nabal trees all doing amazing. Tough strong trees and absolutely gorgeous to look at. Wurtz I know nothing about. You might find interesting, Ettinger performing very very well in high heat. I know it’s commercial in Israel which is a coastal desert Mediterranean climate so makes sense. San Jose climate pretty similar where I am.
Thanks for the good information about your avocado trees that doing great at hot climate these informations are really appreciate because I am trying to plant avocado trees in sub tropical climate with climate that same as at the climate at your area
@@AJTheGraftMan me neither. I culled all the fruit on tree so it do a big growth push this season. Tree was planted 2020 summer. It easily grew 4ft this year and is about 8ft now and super healthy. It had a huge fruit set. I was removing fruit over multiple days to make sure I got everything off tree. Next spring I’ll let it set fruit. My 4 Nimlioh are doing good but man is the growth all over the place. Considering they all looked about the same when I got them this April.
Yes, I agree, I have a three yr old Carmen Hass that requires extra water ( 10 gallons a day) during these heat waves. When it gets to around 100 degrees the top leaves will droop. In the past I built a cover for extreme heat waves. On the other side of the yard, I have a 6 month old "Reed" (3.5 ft tall) which get just as much sunlight, yet had no problems with this recent heat wave. Never saw any drooping or brown leaves ( knock on wood). Another good point about the Reed it doesn't have any Persea mites on it like my Carmen Hass. Not only is the Reed more durable, less headache, but the favor and size are better. At least the ones that I got from the Farmers market.
I have had the same experience with Carmen. I had to move it to a shady spot for protection. It will get more sun as it gets tall but the root system is in the shade and it is doing well.
@@AJTheGraftMan Actually this is the 1st year it's produced fruit. Buds started to emerge back in February. So no, at least not yet. It's only flowered once this year.
I follow you too and I live in Queensland Australia where the heat and humidity this year has been terrible. My little 4 year old Wurtz couldn't care less and grows perfectly with a ton of fruit that I get to eat cause it's on my property ( LOL ) I agree that it's a good one for people in hot areas but only of course when it gets a bit older. Keep up the good work Love your channel
My 3.5- year old Wurtz in 36” box container dropped one fruit almost every day I didn’t water it. Switched to lighter watering daily, no fruit drop during this summer. Let off one day and I’d find a dropped fruit the next morning. I thought for this reason it may not like heat, at least the fruit set didn’t. It’s only 2.5’ tall, so maybe just too young/small to be holding the fruit it has in the first place, about 24 left. Same experience as you with my Reed and Nabal, seem to really love the heat. Thanks for sharing.
I’m in the Arizona desert and it’s super hot here obviously with months of prolonged, intense heat. Winter Mexican has been a real champ. It’s a Florida variety but the West Indian rootstock has been super helpful for salt tolerance which is a big issue here.
I have 2 Bacon avo varieties in a hot dry climate and perplexed on position to plant their in containers resting growing fussy but hot dry winds su k up any moisture. Australian Natives loving it 😊
Fuerte grows well in Fallbrook…a town in north county San Diego. Out here in the Coachella Calley/Palm Springs area, Reed avocados do the best. Trees do best between buildings where they get some shade throughout the day. 😀
Thanks for the good informations about avocado handling the heat wave can you tell us what the maximum temperature at your area that the avocad trees went through without damage
Appreciate your video. Somehow I got ahold of a Julia which is a seedling of Nabal and I have been trying to figure out if it can handle the high heat we get up North. Your video is very encouraging! Greg Alder also recommends Reed for high heat.
@@AJTheGraftMan You are the only one I have talked with has tried one. That's wonderful news! I hear it wasn't released but perhaps that has changed. Mine seems to want to grow like a Reed so I am trying to find a place for it. Thanks for the feedback! I am curious about it because it has some sweetness as does Mayo but Mayo is a huge tree.
My Hass did not do to good in the heat of the Central Valley. I had to move it to the shade under the patio. Doing better now has lots of new growth. All my other trees are doing good as I have some in a small green house. The other ones is planted outside buts it's under good canopy from some big trees. Thanks for the videos. Will have to look out for some cuttings of the other trees mentioned to graft the seeds I'm currently growing.
@@AJTheGraftMan Let me know if you can send me some scions or next time I'm in the LA area I can get some or ill purchase them as well. I have about 10 small trees. 3 are doing really good don't know variety as I grew them out of seeds.
I got obsessed with them too, hell I even set up a sunken greenhouse, in my USDA Zone 7 area, and going for only the cold hardiest ones, and even then I heavily protect them. But so far it seems very promising, its super exciting to mess around with avocados. They are such an interesting fruit in and of itself
Well impressive observation 🙂👍 technically heavy mulch and smart paint technique are sustaining these plants healthy. Moreover, it's a residential premises so trees have chance to get some partial shade as nabal avo trees can be seen in the video.
Ola Aj meu irmão!Concordo que Reed é resistente à seca e uma fruta maravilhosa. Nós temos três grandes, um tem três anos num porta-enxerto Zutano está cheio de fruto e dois pequenos que plantei este ano.

I've been growing my avocado tree from a seed for 11 years now and it will not give any fruit the tree has a 4-inch trunk and it looks and feels heathy. I'm thinking of grafting but I need some cutting where can i get some? tried driven around my city and I even knock on some door but no one who has a fruiting tree will not let me take cutting. any suggestions?
Just bought a Wurtz in California and brought it back to Las Vegas. I’m hoping it survives in pot. Placing it by house so it gets morning sun til about 1pm then it’ll be shaded. Any tips in this hot and DRY 110+ degrees temp day and night all summer long?
How much full / direct sun do your avos get , do they have shade ? What about wind . I find the dry not wind bothers mine . Nice Avos i would be green gazing them too !😊
I am in Paso Robles Ca. zone 8b/9a. I have Reed growing in my backyard and it is producing fruits. I have 40+ varieties of avocados on my property. California, Florida and Cuba varieties. Even my B variety is producing fruits.
curious on how you would handle our 105*+ heat in Sacramento...Last few years, I've been using large umbrellas to prevent heat burn and it seems to help tremendously. This is our first year in getting fruit(Carmen-Hass) and I'm curious if having an umbrella to protect from the HOT summers would be a detrimental to producing quality fruit. It's 1st of June and we have already had 3 days of heat 101*-105* and more expected next week. Thanks, brian
Im so confused i have a fuerte avocado and a Aravaipa avocado there both about 6 feet. It needs water everyday but root rot can happen. Im in phx az my soil is 9b. Would you plant on a mound and if so how high?
General advice for heavy clay soil is at least 2 feet high by 6 foot diameter mound of sand, perlite, pumis, and with well over 8 inches of course mulch on top, the deeper the better in your hot area. And when the avos are small need filtered shade. Best of luck.
AJ, I’ve been watching your videos for a while. I have 5 avocado trees in my backyard. All are doing well except for my Lamb Hass. I had 20 avocados fall. It just kills me. My Sir Prize is doing very well. Green as can be with tons of avocados. I live in Pasadena. How do you find out what zone you live in? Forgot to mention, my Reed tree is doing well. Pasadena heat didn’t affect it. Thanks
Thanks for watching. How old is your Lamb Hass tree? Lamb Hass tends to drop some fruit the first few years they start producing. Your zone is determined based on the lowest yearly temperature in your area. Zone 10A is lowest temps between 30 and 35 degrees F, Zone 9B is between 25 and 30 degrees F, and on and on....

Hey AJ , Where do you live? I heard in one of your videos saying that you were about 2 miles from the Beach and then I heard what I thought sounded like a Jet Talking off, so my guess is El Segundo , California.
