Awesome , educational tour. Please, tell Gerado thank you, and thank you to you as well for posting it.
Watering schedule is mentioned but not the volume of water. It would be great to know the volume of water according to the different ages of the tree. This is important since symptoms of over watering and under watering are similar. Thank you.
Secret Squirrel with soils all being a little different as well as temperatures watering amounts are pretty much different for everyone. It even can be different on one side of are yards to another. I have clay soil and I water my avocado tree a lot they are heavy drinkers especially in hot dry climates. The micro sprinklers he shows probably put out 1-2 gallons a minute and he said 6-8 minutes 3 times a week so guess that anywhere from 6-16 gallons per watering. That amount sounds about right to me. Cheers
😊👍
Excellent video. This is very informative. It is interesting that Gerardo like to plant his trees directly into clay soil (with proof that his trees are thriving). Does that only work when planting trees on a slope? Or will it also work for flat gardens?
What do you think about the idea of planting trees in a mound when the natural soil is clay?
He didn't mention which avacado he thought had the best flavor. Preferably in order. I like that he mentioned age and growth habit for each year and showed full tree from ground up so you could get a good look at the tree. All the tree looked good with the exception of the Gem which surprised me. This was one of best videos I have seen on avacado. I recently bought a Hass 3 ft tall in 5gl container. The leaves are a shiny deep green and 9 plus inches long. I love love avacados
Does anyone know where to get Avocado scions? I don't need more trees, I just want to graft different varieties on my existing trees.
This is a very informative video. I found it to be very well structured and engaging. I do have se real varieties of avocado in my property. Thank you so much for your professional advice.
Can you guys post an update on all the young trees. It would very interesting to see how all the trees have come along 4 years later. Thanks for sharing!
Your fruiting trees are awesome! How do you manage to make them fruit while they are still short?
CAN YOUPLEASE SHOW THE MICROS PRINKLER YOU ARE USING OR SHARE NAME/BRAND AND WHERE TO BUY
Thank you for sharing both of your knowledge and love of these trees! Gerardo is amazing! I just bought a Reed today! I am sure your info saved it’s life!
Great video with many useful tips!
Planting avocado trees on a slope helps with drainage.
Hello
Subtropical Fruit Garden! Thank you so very much for the compliment! Charles :-)
Thank you for anther informational video! A couple of questions: How does Geraldo plan to prevent the roots of the trees planted next to the retaining wall from cracking it, and will the brown and green IV Organics colors work as well protecting from sun scald/burn on the tree trunks?
BRUCE HARA the trees roots wont crack the wall they don’t have that type of roots.
I would be interested to see if Gerardo and suggestions on avocado care in winter. San Gabriel valley sometimes goes below freezing in winter. How does he deal with that with his trees?
I'm facing similar situation in farther NorCali but they can take it when more mature, especially more cold hardy types.
Great video and very informative but it is hard to see Gerardo hiding behind that tree.
Looking forward to an update video
I have two avocado bushes that are over 10 years old, but only 2 years in the ground. They do not have a central trunk... kind of just splayed out from the ground. Is there any way to get them to be trees now or will they be okay to just let go the way they are going? They have bloomed heavily now, for the first time and i'm hoping for fruit. I was shocked to see all those blooms; while in the pots, they put out a few little clusters of blooms, but nothing like they're doing now; I guess they're happier than they were in pots, but I'd love to see some fruit form!
Thankyou Gerardo.😊👍
I have a 45 year old hass avocado that we planted in1985 and it is a very large active producing tree but I put a probitoics formulation on my tree as well as an organic fertilizer. Every year I get thousands of avocados off my tree, they are rich, creamy avacados.
What probiotics do you use, how often and how is it applied?
wow, how many avocados did you get this year?
Great tour and tips. We have a big tall (more than 20 feet) avocado tree in the back yard (more than 40 years old) when we purchase the house. It gave very few fruits each year. Should we trim it down, then follow the five tips? Thanks
Thanks for your advices regarding the proper way of culturing avocados that are planted direct to the soil. My questions is what if the avocados & citrus are only planted in pots what are the right proper techniques in fertilizing & watering these said trees? Pls kindly share your knowledges regarding my questions, thanks so much in advance.
I have seen a few videos all negative about planting in clay. I like what you are saying and would like to go forward with your recommendations. I am going to plant on a hillside similar to yours with clay soil in the Riverside area. I will be digging into the clay to put in the 30" 3" pipe. I am thinking to fortify the clay soil with gypsum and sand. Then plant tree in a 12" mound of E.B. Stone Palm and Citrus mix after leaving it in container for 6 months in Feb and setting up Micro-Sprinkler system and covering with mulch. Your thoughts?
Also maybe discuss how the trees will drop a lot of the fruit that initially sets after the flowering period naturally and isn’t a concern. Cheers
so true
Thank you so much for this video. I have two avocado trees, a Bacon and a Zutano, that I bought this spring in Phoenix, Arizona. They remain in the pot shaded by a large elm tree. I recently changed the watering time to 10 pm and have since seen leaf tip burn. Any suggestions for treatment?
Cactus soil for pineapples, pecans and avocados, and blueberries. Are the roots spiraled? I doubt it so my same tree was in the bucket too long. Good thing I have a warranty
Very informative! Thank you Charles and Gerardo!
This is by far the best video made by IV Organics. Gonna get me a can to protect my investments.
Does Gerardo have a TH-cam Channel?
Why you let grower talk more? You hardly gave chance to talk what he has to say. Disappointing.
Avocados roots are shallow si nutrients on top works an even foliage spray
I only have one bacon avocado tree that I’ve never used the sugar or honey technique when flowering and my tree has a huge amount of fruit on it. I’m located in the inland empire where the Santa Ana wind blows extremely hard my tree is protected by my house but still gets some wind because it’s impossible to stop the winds my yard experiences
You have the carmen tree ?
I hear it produces 3 crops a year is this true ?
CHARLIE of Whittier.
Did I miss it or did you not discuss the honey or sugar spraying of the flowers to attract the bees for better pollination? Everything I’ve heard about doing it is amazing results I guess avocado flowers are not the bees favorite especially yards with citrus that may bloom at the same time one of the bees favorite.
It’s interesting to see that you all plant on slopes. I live in South Florida and our terrain is flat. Very educational video.
Hi liz from Trinidad ,I need to kn ìf all the trees shown on his property are grafted? Can you show me the fruit in regards to the tree that it came from?
My 15 yr old tree only got water when it rained, before son cut it down. Tree diameter was 28 to 36 in
im personally not an avocado fan, but these tips are invaluable for other types of fruit trees. Once again another quality video second to none
I have 2 Avacado plants they are tropical avacados. Could you please do a video on indoor Avacado plants. I always start from scratch.
I'm planting the Reed avacado
I live in zone 8b. Myrtle beach SC. I need cold hardy A & B.
What an unbeatable, highly informative duo! Well done!
Tap water already has Calcium. lmfao
Janet from jamaica how do I keep my ovadico tree short
congratulations from brazil. avocado is just an amazing fruit. i have some trees, and i am tring to improve the prodoction. thanks for the video
Love Brazil! My parents spent many months there over several trips, brother flew hanglider near the cliffs out of Rio (did I get the right city?) And we had a fantastic Brazilian high school girl as an exchange student when I was a kid. Dad did some business there too.
Great video gentlemen, I look forward to sharing even more info on our Facebook page in real time as the seasons change to keep our trees healthy and fruiting.
Hello Charles,
My name is Miguel Mariscal, my family and I live in hot, windy and cold Central Valley Bakersfield, California.
We live in a 1/3 of acre property where we grow many different fruits and vegetables for our family to consume. We have about 50 total trees although our focus in our yard has been avocado trees. We have 12 trees of 6 different varieties that the age ranges between 2 and 5 years. We struggle to keep blooms to actually become fruits. This year we took soil and leaf analysis and most of the nutrients were with in range except for low calcium and magnesium. We applied gib for calcium but we haven’t been able to find anything to raise magnesium.
We would appreciate your feedback.
We have videos of what we grow here in our backyard please let us know how to send one your way. Thank you.
I have one in my backyard young grafted an start feeding potash as a foliage spray everyday to fruit fast
What’s the ingredients when using Whitewashing.
Graft a couple B branches onto your 1 A tree.
where is the product at 22:10 sold?
My bacon variety doesn't seem to need another to aid in pollination. It has produced a very good amount for the past several years. Great video
Same as mine
Do your neighbors have avocado trees?
@@MrLikeke not within a quarter mile
How do I keep my avidaco trees short
I'm using pots. How big should I buy my pot to plant my 3foot avacado plant. Does it matter if I go big if I'm keeping it there forever?
where can I find your products …………….great video
Vrinda Bhalla a lot of the big box stores amazon and I believe you can purchase off there website.
What type of mulch is best for Avocados I have a small wood chipper and grind up timings from oaks. Can I use the oak chips with also has grass and trimming from various other trees and plants. The pipe in the middle of the Citrus trees is it used to water the trees when there small or used like with the Avocado trees used to dry the soil to prevent root rot. Gerardo taught me a lot in this video I plan to put in a pipe next to my Lame Avocado its been in the ground 2 years. Also I was told not to leave fruit on the Avocado till they were at least 4 or 5 years I was shock to see all of Gerardos small trees with fruit on them. Thanks Great Video.
Hi Charles, I want to buy 6 macros + fertilizer. Can you tell us when, how much for new plant, grown and how to put it to soils. Please detail as much as you can :)
Thanks a lots and wish you well
Excellent presentation. Q: what is watering bottom up? Is the drain pipe pvc? Now I know what to plant on my slope. Thanks
Thanks for all of your wonderful advice. I have a Mexacali avacado tree. I fertilized it in March this year with the citrus/avacado fertilizer. I believe I put too much fertilizer on my tree. All the leaves fell off. The tree is two years old. It’s on a drip system. I don’t know what to do. Any advice?
thanks for the great tips!
how would you suggest i feed/fertilize my trees if they have a decent amount of mulch? do i have to move the mulch each time or can i assume that when being watered or when it rains, the feed will ultimately make its way to the roots of the tree? i always worry that food isn't getting down to the roots because of the thick layer of mulch.
Thank you so much for the compliment PolyNZian
! MOST home gardeners would remove the mulch to ensure the fertilizer has made contact with the soil; however, it's another step that with proper watering will get to the soil level with 90%+ with the 1st thorough watering. And eventually, wood chips and fertilizer will all break down to the benefit of the surrounding tree(s). Another tip, I recommend feeding less amount of fertilizer and applying more frequently; like the 1st week of each month. Keep me posted on your growing successes!!!
Charles :-)
@@IVOrganic thank you so much for that. at times i have moved the mulch and other times, not - just a thorough water as you mentioned. phew...
you're not the first person to say that charles in regards to feeding. my dad is a firm believer of that. he just can't believe that we only feed trees three times a year. through experience, he much prefers smaller feeds but at much regular intervals. i will adopt the first week of each month though. i used to aim for around the 20th of each month for some odd reason.
Feeding is not necessary for deciduous trees during dormancy, right?
cheers for the prompt reply btw. a fan from New Zealand!
@@shanghaimuts Hi - I am in NZ too. What is your location .... I am keen to plant avos on the North Shore of Auckland ... what do you think? Cheers.
@@natasharomoff6639 Kia ora! I say go for it. Avocados do well in Auckland. I have two mature trees that used to stand at approximately 15 metres tall.
I'm at Muriwai beach so close to the ocean even.
Sorry for the tardy response.
@@shanghaimuts Kia ora 😁 cheers for that info ... what types did you plant? I'm going to give it a go 🇬🇸
I'm new to growing avos, certainly deffer to Gerado but some of those look much too small to carry fruit to me, but I have to get my trees bigger fast so they'er tougher to occasional frost hazard. I remove all the blooms for now. Earwigs chew on my artichokes not my trees...an IV solution for a nonexistent problem.
Awesome video. I have a question, I planted more then 10 avocado its been 2 years now, but this summer all my avocado three leaves turn brown . was it to much water or less water.. by the way I live in Greece so weather condition is hot in summer and cold in winter. please help
I like to know how long you can leave the avocado on the tree? I have a tree that gave only two last year . This year I have about 300 plus avocado. Why I used hay and cover my whole yard. I could not find wood chips. Also can you tell me what your friend will do with all those avocado. Also where can I get the fertilizer bag you show there with the magnesium and calcium?
Your video was very helpful. I will like to know how to plant avocado in Lawrenceville Georgia?
loved video,
in regards to whitewashing is it only the more mature branches the ones that are now brown or new green ones as well? any info would greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Thank you very informative👍 coming from nursery, when can you transplant into a container and when to top the avocado tree?
If it's too low they don't grow! Hey guys if I planted my avocados too deep, can I remove it after a year????
Hi, I'm new to your travel! Great helpful tips and good content! New friend here, just subscribed to your channel!
Mr Malki good day l have a question why when we plant from seeds an avocado tree, we will have avocado from ten to fifteen years ????
Hey Charles hows your Pinkerton avacado tree growth? I use all iv organics on all my trees and they work great.
Thank you for posting. Great tips . Live and learn. Some day I'll post a video .
Rowland Heights!! Thats down the street from me! Very cool
Very informative. Thank you. How do you grow avocado trees in a heated polytunnel?
Awesome video! Does Gerardo have any type of social media where we can follow him?
Good job guys. Gerardo this is June from Facebook avocado so. Cal gardener group.
When would you say is a good time to unstake a tree? Mine are in barrels and my newly potted Hass would be bent really hanging over the pot. It would be almost on the ground if in ground. I am thinking let the trunk harden up some. It's windy where I am. So when everyone else gets wind. It's bad here.
June Van Putten you can steak the trees as long as needed just put two stakes one on each side direction of the wind and when you tie them leave some slack so it will be able to move in the breeze/wind this will cause the tree to strengthen in a safe manor. The green garden tape works well because it has give to it but depending on how hard the wind is bigger rope works tie knots to the steaks.cheers
The guest is placed so that you can barely see him, but we can sure see the the host, haha,
Thank you a great informative vlog
Brian's Jersey Garden Thank you!!! Charles 🌱👍
Avocado are one of the hardest trees to plant in ground. Thanks for all the videos you have made. Can't wait until you show us a multi graft Avocado! Can you graft an A type avocado to a B type avocado?
I've grafted Hass and Reed to Fuerte. I've grafted Nabal to Mexicola Grande. I've grafted Sir Prize to a seedling. I believe you can graft any avocado to any other avocado and that the A or B type is just a trait of the variety.
At what stage should an avocado tree be fertilized for the very first time?
Pls what you add to water for washing avocado tree
How about ice cubes? That melt slowly.
Can you graft avocado trees from the same Kind
How many feet the trees apart? Btw they look good 😌
What fertilizers are you using sir?
How about a harvest video for any of your trees
how far apart should avocado trees be?
Are lamb hass a cold hardy type or same as hass?
Do you need to graft another avocado to the plant I grew from seed to produce avocados? If I have two avocados that I grew from seed is that OK?
yes, graft a good scion onto your seedlings. One option for a scion is if you know someone that has an avocado that you like, take a branch from them. Otherwise you will wait for years before the seedlings produce fruit, which will most likely be of very poor quality.
How many times a year can we fertilize an avocado trees in a pot?
This is a fantastic video. Keep them coming!
Are these grafted trees?
Thank you for the education. How do I fertilize my avocado tree?
@ 19:19
Are all your trees grafted?
I have sandy soil. The PH is 6-6.5.
Would u recommend mound planting or planter box?
That sounds like perfect conditions. No mounding needed. Water daily when temps above 80 or so
@@ryanprijic1343 Thanks for that Ryan.
They like very well draining soil but use a lot of mulch!
I have awesome loam but I mixed half DG with it for raised avo beds, good so far going on 2 yrs. Thanks to Garry Matsuoka.
Awesome video buddy do you know anybody that has mangoes
The big mango nursery burned down in the fires this last yr. there’s still some around thou.
Hi
I have a Glenn Mango in a 24 gal pot fruiting that I could probably sell to you
MrCarlosdelgado where are you located?
@@caseG80 Corona
Thank you both. I am learning alot. It would be great if Gerardo could go around again and give us some idea when the fruit on each tree would be ripe so we can buy different varieties and stagger harvesting. I was wondering if Gerardo might consider some other tropicals like mangos or bananas.
DEPENDING ON YOU SOIL", I put compost and even cow manure and ash in with while planting avocado tree. You need to soften the bed for the roots to grow. Every time you water the surrounding soil and this thing called gravity will fill in those areas that the decaying of the compost. A mixture of local soil and compost, ash, manure would be ideal.
EXCELLENT vid! Just follow ups please!
I planted my first bass avocado tree and I watched plenty of videos and they all said to mix in the fertilizer or all ingredients to Soil to plant the tree. It would hate for it to die, I need help. It is starting to make the leaves look sad. What can I do? I will for sure change my watering schedule and add Mulch will this help my tree survive ?
If you had a choice to add a B type would pick Bacon or Fuente?
Great video..thanks for putting these together.
Thank you for the compliment Rich Urban
! Charles :-)
