Thank you, my Aguacaté friend! Check back for another taste test coming up in a week or two. I’m going to go back and pick some from the tree and wait until they are really ripe to do a comparison test. Take care, my friend in the 831.
My guess is they are both a bit underripe, and could use a few more days to develop flavor. But it could also be due to the heavy rains we’ve been getting up here in the Napa Valley the previous week, causing the fruit to swell and skin to crack, also diluting the flavor.
@@reallygoodplants that’s good to know for both SR and Fuerte. It’s interesting regarding the SR fruits I found as they were on the ground, as if they had fallen themselves. But now I wonder if they fell from critters crawling in the tree. I will go back to the tree in a couple of weeks with a fruit tree pole picker to pick ones still hanging at that time and wait for them to ripen on the counter.
Congrats on your avocado fruit haul ✌️🥑 Buen Provecho

Very interesting. What do you think caused the flavors to be so light? And what do you think caused the scaring?

I think both need more time on the tree. Like February harvest for Second Red when the tree is mature and February-March for Fuerte
