I keep my coconut cream at 12' and it has produced 2 years in a row. Homemade fish emulsion 👍

First good year on mine, It's a strange alien life form.

[@MichaelSmith-fu3bm]

@ James thx for the great tip ..I would also add some rock dust diluted in that fish emulsion
I make a fetid water to feed my trees of leaves , cheap tilapia, Rock dust, some chicken manure , banana peels, egg shells,weeds
All my plants get regular 5 gal dose of this mixture...all love it

Dr Campbell, have you ever come across a mango variety called Bourbon mango? I have travelled all over Brazil but could only find this variety in my home region (between pantanal and amazon forests).
Super interesting videos as always. Thanks a lot.

Does the root stock determine dwarfism or the scion?

[@pistolpete349]

Hello Chris., Phd Rick Cambell. I'm looking at my summer avocado blossoms Brogden and Russell just destroyed as they were setting fruits. This induced weather, lack of rain unstable hot n cold after fruit set isn't a good prospect for summer avacodos that are always prolific. My Choquete winter avocado is now starting to flower. What is the possibility of the summer avocados having a second blossom set?

[@everydayanimalswithrainfor1315]

You would have a really slim change of another bloom if a cold front came through but usually all of those types of avos are a one and done with blooming. Weather has been very strange as you said.

If it dwarfs the scion, how many extra years to get a descent crop?

[@WaldoG-b9j]

Richard gots facts nothing worse then someone grafting a dwarf on a large root stock for money

[@CANARIOS_PARADISE]

By any chance did he tell you which combination worked for him so far

[@greatergood3706]

I'd love to know

[@drillsergeant623]

Richard Campbell from the fugitive?

[@DJCEOx]

Hey bro try Thai Alphonso, Bennett Alphonso, South Indian Alphonso, Devgad Alphonso and Ratnagiri Alphonso. See which one do well at your place.

[@Basicman122]

Did Campbell retire from the fruit counsel?

[@keithkeller698]

Dwarf trees have their place but my old Dwarf tree died from a freeze. If it was bigger it wouldn't have died.
