      Hey REM - Down Potting Rehabilitation for your Kona Sharwil !! I have done the same thing with fairly good results. Once the tree recovers and begins to flourish, you can put it in-ground again. Keep me posted on the Luna please. We're getting quite a bit of wind up here in the San Fernando Valley. Bummer about the PAC-12 breaking up :(

    I've had lots of issues in orange county with critters stealing my fruit too but using opaque organza bags seems to work (though not 100 percent of the time). If you use the transparent ones, birds will give up but not squirrels. Because the mesh is heavy duty you can use the bags for several years.

    Your trees are looking good. Those Bacon look tasty. I really like Bacon, so creamy. It really reminds me of Fuerte. My Bacon is doing really well this year. I increased the watering time and it has responded well. It only has one fruit because a rodent got the other one. I covered it in a red Solo cup and so far that has kept the critters away.

    Im in Elsinore and last year I planted a Fuerte and hass together, after giving up on my 16+ year old huge avocado seedling tree that never produces , I threatened it already that if it doesn’t fruit in another year I’m cutting it down and grafting another variety on the rootstock

    • @AvocadoTalk
      @AvocadoTalk  7 місяців тому +2

      Try to girdle your old avocado that hasn't fruited and it may provide fruit quickly. That way you can see if the fruit that you have from your ceiling is worth keeping. I'm planning on growing out some of my seedling avocados also just for fun.

    REM I'm coming from a video by the OC Backyard Gardner and he uses plastic produce clam shell containers to protect his avos from rodents. I'm thinking the driscolls strawberry ones from costco would work, the grape ones or even the blueberry in larger quantity because the plastic clam boxes are deep enough to accomodate an avocado maybe even stick in a few fruit that are in the same cluster per box good luck 🚫 🐿🐀🚫
