Super neat video. I love avocado!
Woulda been nice to show other varities.., and it's not rich soil that's wanted, but the sandy loam on DG hillsides. Grow your own and you'll get much better than commercial.
Mmm eating a Hass with some cheese on it right now
This video fails to mention that Rudolf Hass actually got the avocado Hass seed from Guatemala because the Fuerte variety of avocado from Mexico did not taste so good. There is actually a plaque in Antigua, Guatemala that honors Guatemala and its contribution to the Hass avocado as we know it today. The first company from the USA to commercialized the Hass avocado installed the plaque in Antigua, Guatemala in gratitude.
La obtuvo de México donde es el origen del aguacate y posteriormente el guatemalteco mejoró la consistencia
Watching this due to the incoming avocado shortage, due to the michoacan mexico avocado import ban
That ban only lasted for 2 days. A USDA Inspector in Mexico was threatened. It took a few days to implement more security measures. Then the ban was lifted.
Don't try to grow your own from seed. 1 in 100 trees grown from seed will produce edible fruit. A good avocado tree will have up to 1,000,000 flowers, and from that, produce up to 100 fruit. Most trees produce some sort of fruit which is not edible. Some may never produce fruit at all. Commercials growers buy grafted trees from Brokaw. They don't have a warehouse with thousands of avocado seed, with toothpicks sticking out of them, balancing on glasses of water.
WARNING: Do not watch while not eating avocado!
