    Great video REM, bummer on the half eaten avocado but great harvest of your other avocados. You have a really nice food forest with avocados and black berries. I think you used to have a blood orange tree as well. Those darn UFOs. Great video once again!

    Sorry to hear about your stolen fruit. Man it makes me so mad when that happens. Well, if makes you feel any better I caught another squirrel today in my squirrelinator. Another one down. I have caught about 9 so far. Crazy. Your trees are looking good. I have noticed more fruit drop this year on the varieties that flowered earlier. Probably due to the colder weather. I hope you and your family are well. Take care

    Good for you to harvest the remaining avocados. They look excellent. I should have done that with my GEM and Carmen. It’s a little bit maddening but we learn. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Nice looking Esther avocados. How is their taste and ability to peal from the flesh? I’ve never tasted one but an anxious to. So nanny of the non-Hass, are harder to find to taste. I’ve maybe tasted 8-10 different varieties but anxious for many more. Very good looking grove and land you have there. Keep all these great posts coming.

    Hey REM - Bummer about that big avo getting eaten. It really is a balancing act between the forces of nature (UFO's, birds, insects, weeds, weather, etc.), and trying to maintain your orchard and garden. The critters and birds will take their share, but as your trees get larger and produce more, the impact they will have becomes proportionately less. Your video has made me decide to start setting my traps. Last season I caught 11 squirrels which helped reduce my fruit loss, but not entirely. FYI -my JB is doing well and is upright!! Thanks Much!!

    • @AvocadoTalk
      @AvocadoTalk  Рік тому

    REM, same thing happened to me recently so trap was set at base of tree and next day big fat possum trapped. Dunked in horse trough and and vultures had a nice afternoon meal. Have a heart traps of different sizes loaded with cat food and avocado gets the possums. Oatmeal for the squirrels. Skunks are by catch and that gets fun

      A big bed sheet between you and cage. Gently sing and talk to skunk as you approach and then slowly lower and drop the sheet over trap. Then carefully lift and submerge into horse trough. I usually don’t get any spray at all. Occasionally they release a little but it’s not an issue. Vultures have no issue with smell

    I live about 15 min away from you. I have a huge avocado tree, not sure what variety, but this year I don't see any fruit buds coming in. I saw a lot of the flowers fall off, and I'm concerned that none got pollinated. Has this ever happened to you or someone you know? That an entire year goes without fruit?

    • @AvocadoTalk
