Very nice video. I am a grower in California. I am a high density grower, growing Hass, Lamb Hass and GEM. The latter i have at 5 feet by 16 feet. I am very pleased with this variety and spacing.
5 feet by 16? 5 feet is 1,5 m... is it correct? I'm going to plant avocado in Sicily, (south italy) and I am not sure about the spacing... here the "expert" suggest me no less then 6m , betther 8m... inthis video he say 3m, and you say 1,5m ... 🤔 can someone gime me molre information and some good advice please? Thank you :)
@@juanramirez5817 Good thing I did not ask you to help pay for the trees. You go ahead and farm the way you know. Ill farm the way I want. Even if you don't approve or not.
@@juanramirez5817 I would never plant 10X10, I have see this on Hass and that tree will not do well in that spacing, My hass is on 12X15, box rows every 6 at 18". GEM on the other hand is a perfect tree for higher density. If you have not planted any of those try them, they produce like crazy, are naturally small, and grow upright, that is how I get away with a 5X14 spacing, bix rows at 18' every 6th one. I am aggressive on my farming, I have to maximize my returns, grandpa did not leave this ranch to me.
I have planted avocado 10 feet by 12 feet in my 5 acres of farm land and also planted one more plant middle of 4 plants that is 7.5 feet distance. when u have 10 by 12 feet, u get 15 feet diagonally and can plant middle of diagonal distance. I am adopting UHDP model and later pruning will have to be done regularly
hi, good to learn from your video of growing avocado trees. by the way, I live in North Island of NZ and my 2 avocado trees are flowring for the first year now, however, I could not tell whether they are A type or B type trees because I could only see a few times of their female flowers around 3pm Auckland time after several days of male flowering both in the morning and afternoon. do you know about that? cheers
What is the purpose for the blue bags around your avocado plants? I guess for protection but from what ants? Thanks for sharing your trees look beautiful.
This type is spacing hasn’t been proven to be effective yet. 10 mtr spacing is usually the standard and then you would end up taking every second tree out at about 8 to 10 years which will be the final spacing. From experience this is the best form of planting.
i havw a tree in my garden in south africa its probably 8m+ high, thi year it probably did 2000+ fruit and made a mess... i have never seen the species in stores its not haas, and not fierta, how can i have you help me identify it
Hi! I'm also from SA. 😃 If it's not a grafted tree, there's a good chance it was grown from seed, in which case it probably won't be a recognised/established variety.
I am making an espalier type arbour for two varieties of avocados. Os it possible to severely prune an 20 year old mango tree and keep only use the lower branches? I hate to cut down a productive tree!
what I learned from my trees is always make sure their soil is good, if not then go and buy good soil for your trees. 2. keep their canopy open that would save them from diseases
If you have the money and dedication so it. Many times there’s a 1-2 year wait from nursery to get trees, then another 3-4 years to see fruit so it’s easier said than done
@@liaquattalash3262 it’s not about temperature. I guess the more water the merrier for avocados they like moist feet. We in California don’t waste water because we are in a drought. The idea is to get a sprinkler to shoot straight down not a big circle on starter trees. You can water a long time but if it’s not reaching the tree roots it’s pointless. If possible watering 2 times a week is ideal.
@@juanramirez5817 thanks...but one challange with moist feet it makes plant very susceptible for root rot and phytopthera ,it's what I am observing in our orchard. Thanks for your valuable input.
It’s not about tree size it’s about leaves branches, in some of our trees we can pick up to 1900lbs a tree for perspective (24ft) trees with lots of leaves
@@juanramirez5817 interesting...but can u plz explain what's connection of more leaves with more fruiting .. As in general we assume more leaves mean more vegetative growth and less reproductive growth . Thanks
@@liaquattalash3262 yea more foliage means more flowers and buds. Of course a good proper pruning is ideal. There is many farmers that have big trees but no leafs just tall 30ft trees where there is no foliage at bottom and all the fruit is at the top. While there is farmers that maintain circle like trees with a good canopy where all of the tree has fruit from top to bottom.
Good pollination is also ideal. Proper sunlight. Adequate water and a good fertilization schedule is essential to good producing trees year after year. And pruning of course.
@@juanramirez5817 agreed with you brother..pruning is critical in determining maximum reproductive growth.Although we do pruning but still we are learning about it,as pruning stimulates regrowth and also removal of branches leads to saturated distribution of cell sap. We grow Hass on 1300 acres in Uganda Africa. Which variety u r growing and what's maximum plant height u r keeping, as far as our plant canopy I noticed 80 percent of Hass fruit is in first 2 to 2.5 meters of plant.
A very informative video,,,am going to grow Hass avocado in Tanzania East Africa

Thank you brother for sharing your knowledge and experience with us all, thank you very much
It is very interesting ! Thank you for making this presentation available to us. Again, thanks.
The best management mr
Great video 👍👍💪💪💪... priceless information.. God bless you all.
very inspiring, always success for his garden .. I'm from a planter in Indonesia
Nice agro education! I like this👍👍👍
Your avocado plants lush and healthy looking, what sort of fertiliser you apply

excellent video. whats the spacing between plant and rows? what height are you'll planning to maintain the plant at? what is the later distance?
It's all in the video (that I assume you watched)
Thanks for the knowledge... Im avocado grower too
Great video, thanks for posting
Spacing is what
What is the purpose for the blue bags around your avocado plants? I guess for protection but from what ants? Thanks for sharing your trees look beautiful.
Protection in general of pests and also sun also helps when you spray herbicides
What is the planting distance between hills in a row.
Nice one..did you say 3 meters apart is okey spacing ?
James kihonge
That's what he said.. Ok or not, I'm not sure..
Old method of 100 trees per acre is obsolete now..?

How many feet tall will you limit your new trees?
10 Feets he said .
Nice,
Does it need regular irrigation?how about sesdling plant and grafting plant which one give more fruting?
Quite interesting, I want to start avocado farming. What can u advice me?

@@pisodemarcia thank you soo much highly appreciated
you need to start lol thats my number one advice, enough speculating go buy a fucking tree and it will start to produce! i have numeral trees
If you have the money and dedication so it. Many times there’s a 1-2 year wait from nursery to get trees, then another 3-4 years to see fruit so it’s easier said than done
I love my avocado marked
Nice video sir
I wish to visit your farm. What is the water requirement per tree for those small trees? What will you do when the trees start to concentrate?
20-40 gallons per tree in that age
@@juanramirez5817 pls gv me your email address, we want to do avocado farming in india

Do you have contact information for this grower?
I wish I had done this with my avocado tree here in California. My tree has just gone crazy. I have a thin skinned tree and the skin can be eaten.
What time of year does he prune in NZ?
Great video thanks.by yudha suhadha ch
Where can I buy a Reed Avocado tree
From a shop that sells Reed Avocado trees.
aaa so you are plotting 3x3, you must be growing Mendez Hass variety; good avo. verity but it is a drinker, loves water.
the best ois 7 x7 . thanks for watching dont forget it is a heliocenic tree that needs a lot of space.
Add in some air root pruning pots ftw
How to buy land, any good site please, if you have any whatsapp group plz add me +258840725250
Get ready to prune a heck of a lot more often than twice a year with plants 3x3!
I'm sure they'll be able to handle the pruning just fine
Hi like what you do
a big tree can produce 300+ fruits if we're being conservative, how many do these pruned midget trees yield?

Where can I buy a Reed Avocado tree
And if they eventually decide to change their mind, all they have to do is eliminate every other tree and they will have a 6x6 planting frame.
no
Not informative just talking
what is the planting distance?
