I had an avocado tree for 15 years. Never made fruit. True story i was about to cut it down then saw the fruit. Now year after year we get enough avocados 2 feed the family for months and extra to sell or give away.
Can you make a video of your avocado tree
@@nathalialavelle1603 Sure i can! I have a few passion fruit vines going up it :) I want to get an oil press to make some avocado oil !!
Sounds like it was grown from a seed, they often take a long time to fruit.
@@FukushimaRadiation ok but what zone are you in?

I live in Mexico and the Avocados Trees are wild. We have the Trees everywhere, We are lucky in Mexico.
Hall or Has avocados?
Kindly inform me if it is possible to grow some avocado trees from seeds. Will they produce fruit when they are mature likely 5-8 yrs later?
what part of Mexico? Southern California we have them all over our neighborhoods too.

What a sweetheart, loves her Avocado Trees and great at telling us how to love them -
I remember our neighbor in CA had a HUGE avocado tree that would even hang over the fence. They’d let us pick anything on our side so we always enjoyed great avocados. I remember having to knock them down with 10-15ft long pvc pipes my dad was using for construction
The fact that people can grow avocado trees at home blows my mind since I'm not in the right climate to do so. When I see Avocado trees on vacation with fruit they just look so good!
I live in southern west coastal Florida. Rich compost soil is a pipe dream here. I really wish these videos would say where they are posted from up front
thank you !!! FINALLY some one who gives the information. quickly and effectively.
Yeah well done - good video! I'm doing this but I've found even my (what I thought was) big mounds still weren't big enough to promote a good growing mix on top of my clay and it tended to sink so now I've gone 4 x 6 trailer load with all the extra points mentioned in the video. So far so good!
All for an avocado tree
How's you avocado tree coming along now? I can't seem to find an update on your channel
@Muneeb Iqbal indeed . Just seen his post ans had a giggle / he’s done amazing
But you added lime to make it “sweet” or alkaline, re read the agriculture dept’s guidelines “only use lime when heavily acidic”, avos like it slightly acid. Your avos will keep failing otherwise.
Have you seen what avocado toast costs in Australia? A house deposit@@AlexanderOsuna
You can also paint the trees with dilute latex paint to protect from sun or spray the tree with kaolin powder suspension. We have about 500 Hass trees. Also if you have one tree in your yard and you want a LOT of fruit, it's best to have it grafted with another variety with of out-of-phase flowers (A type and B type).
is it enough with having type A and B flowers in the vicinity or do you need bees to help with the pollination? I've read that it helps a lot, I wonder how much of a difference does it make
I have a few trees and they produce without (AFAIK) the help of insects
VERY informative vlog!! And also VERY true! Everything said here is GOSPEL!! I started a couple plants from the seed last year and had em in our windows inside, and the start of nice weather I took em outside and just 1/2 a day of direct sunlight burnt the leaves on the bigger plant (the smaller one I planted under the protection of my bamboo). The big one is recovering since I put it's planter under with the smaller plant and now like the video said it's just a matter of making sure they get enough water.
how are those trees going 5 years later?
btw growing from seed without grafting is unlikely to lead to good quality yields
the trees will still be nice though
Where I live:
1. Eat avocado
2. Burry the seed anywhere you want
3. Come back after 4 years
4. Pick avocados
5. It is that simple
Al Haymon where is that?
@curve your toes Christians I think a really big avocado fell on your head!
@curve your toes Christians why must you insert your religion into a comment section about growing avocados?
@curve your toes Christians No one wants you to interject religion into a conversation about avocados. That is not the way to "witness" to people. That is a way to make people resent Christians. Your tactic does the opposite of your intention.
Al Haymon
Are you able to tell the region you live in or if your living on a island?
Just planted mine and now learning how to care. Thx for the mulch tips
Update?
1. Have free draining soil with lots of organic matter (leaf litter, bark - stuff you would find on the forest floor)
2. Protect from wind (avoid planting in areas that are exposed to high winds)
3. Protect from the cold (apply heavy duty frost cloth or grow in a greenhouse)
Growing two in Darlington N.E. England, at 3 years old they are 4 foot tall. I take them indoors in the winter, we get down to -8 and further. In summer they take their chance outdoors.
Some Avocado trees will survive down to -11°C and still bear fruit the next Summer. The key is to sprout several seeds and plant them in pots. After a year or so, plant them outdoors in the spring (after danger of frost is over) and see which ones survive the following winter. There is an article on Medium.com about growing your own Avocado tree in a cooler climate. The article is titled: The B.C. Avocado Project.
@@speedreading4kids549 I dump the seeds in the compost bin only to find that they have all sprouted over the winter. I now have 10 growing.
@@arthurduncan5999 they may survive after being sprouted outside on the winter
When growing up in Puerto Rico, avocado trees were everywhere. People would give their avocados away because there were so many. Same with mango trees. I miss those days
3 avocados in the market today............$12 freaking bucks! Such BS Juez. Thank god i just bought a small farm in Costa Rica. I have 4 avocado trees going. Time to get back to growing our own food.
I have a pinkerton avocado tree, it's 2 years sold, and 2 metres tall. I can't believe how fast it's grown.
Thanks this was clear and to the point. Do you have a video of how you go about pruning your avocado to keep it small with full size fruit or are there now dwarf varieties? I’m in Melbourne Australia
Thank you
Growing mine in baking hot Adelaide, South Australia, it is now 4 yrs old and I grafted Haas onto it when it was 2 years old, the summers here are long hot and dry with minimal humidity so I keep my tree well mulched and shaded on hot sunny days, I never over water and make sure the soil never dries out, I am sure my tree will flower next spring ( Sept 2020 )
Thanks, my tree in New Orleans, Louisiana started producing in it's second year, maybe 3. People are amazed that I didn't have to wait seven years.
Mark talks about how the clay level in his soil causes root rot, and the avo's Native soil is moist Black humus and has good air flow... a sorta good air/bacteria verses bad air/bacteria struggle Id say. (aquaculture interests)
I a growing a sapling indoors at the moment. I live in North Georgia, USA and I am worried about planting it outside. The climate is fine for them in the spring and summer, but I worry about the fall and winter where it can often get below 36 degrees Fahrenheit. What do I do during the chilly months? Just keep them covered all the time?
Great vid. How do you prevent the tree from growing in height? I know the avocado trees need to grow at its fullest and to have a thick trunk in order to produce fruit. You prove me wrong.
Plant a few varieties 4 ft apart or 2 in the same planting hole or espalier them and keep trimmed.
Hi
After watching this vid, I went to have a look at Marks "self sufficient me" on UA-cam as he pointed out a "normal Australian soil" problem that a lot of us have coz most of us dont try to cover the best volcanic land with concrete mega houses like dopey surfie hippies... (cough Byron, Ballina)
I live in Arizona zone 9b. I have been trying to grow an avocado for years. Failed every time I tried. Thanks for the video. I will apply what I learned to my next attempt at growing an avocado tree. Do you have any other recommendations for growing avocado trees in a hot desert area? And what is the best variety I should try next time?
Hello
Well have you tried a Reed
I'm finding out that I have to watch how much I water
Hi, I am growing an avacado tree right now its a little sapling, it's about 1 foot tall I started to snip off the top leaves so now it has developed more little branches and begining to look bushy, I live in the aried dessert Southwest of the United States, what I want to know is when will it be safe to plant it outside? . I keep it in the front window of my kitchen were it gets plenty of sun, not the harsh sun but the defused sunlighting that streams into the kitchen. Summer's get extremely hot here in the dessert and I am afraid the little sapling will get fried. Shall I continue to keep it indoors for another year? Thank you for taking time to reply.
This is an outstanding video. Quick and to the point. Thanks for this.
I potted two avocado stones a couple of months ago and now they're like baby trees in the front window, I'm in the UK, about what size do you repot them into big pots and put them outside? we get quite a lot of rain here even in the summer but it can get quite hot so I'm just wondering about the sun burn thing and I heard about 'grafting' fruit trees for it to grow fruit properly, or will it just grow fruit anyway?
I'd love some help, got a baby apple tree and pear tree growing from seeds too in little pots. I want to make it clear though that I would just plant these trees in a garden and be happy if they lived all their hundreds of years and gave fuck all fruit off 'em, a tree is a tree, gorgeous beautiful things.
So....4 years later and how are all the trees doing? Did you repot them or move them outside? I'm also here in the UK and I've got 4 avocado pots on my window sill. Also not doing this for the fruit 🙂
Love it ❤️❤️ I being taking care of my avocado tree about a year now
I just got a Lila Avocado tree here in zone 9. Do I really have to plant it next to my South wall or can I plant it out in the open near the canopy of my large oak tree where I have my mango trees?
Great video. Can I make the mound using a combination of aged compost and wood chips? I have a ready supply of both.
non fussed and to the point, very helpful.
👍from studying horticulturist from other part of world (Punjab India).
Great video , I live in uk , I've grown 3 indoors so far about 2 ft tall, my question is will they survive outside all year round here, our winters are cold but wet mostly , would the frost be a problem ,? What's the lowest they can indure? Our winters vary but an average of minus 5 Celsius I guess. Regards Lee
Hi LeePY. How are the trees doing? Did you try them outside? I'm also in the UK and have 4 pots on my windowsill. It's too late to get them outside now (November) but maybe next year in the Spring
Excellent video: good advice, concisely presented. Many thanks.
great channel thank you! We need to relocate an avocado tree that is around 3 years old. It's growing right above where our borehole is and we're concerned about the roots disturbing the borehole pump. Please advise - I'm in south Africa - thank you.
mine grows in clay bugger all draininage with woolies $3 a bag soil and it's thriving, 8ft tall from seed 2 years ago
Really beautiful. Thank you from Antonio Goa, India.Keep it going. I have 1 grafted and 2 Avocado trees from seeds growing healthy. Hope to do mulching for retaining the moisture this summer as the temperature exceeds 37 degrees Celsius in the afternoon
Do you think a root/grow bag that so many people are using now, might work for these trees?
Kath , my 2 Avocados in large pots have finally failed a combo of the 2022 weather in Brisbane and the Possums climbin up the trunks i think my Avocado dream is nearly over, loss of leaves, and the trunck rotting at the top possible from Possum climbing up the trunk?. oh well :( i would say out of all the fruit trees in my collection the most picky and difficult to contiue to grow is the Avocado , initially was the Glenn Mango but now the 2 Avocado tree in Pots (x Pollination purposes) will be having a funeral date coming soon. so Cavet emptor when buying fruit trees like a Avo they are difficult to grow that is why Avos are so expensive.
I'm living in Costa Rica with a rainy season, would I need to make mounds and use good draining/sandy soil to prevent root damage, and keep them watered during the dry season? And obvs mulch so during dry season moisture is maintained, and during wet season, the rain floods away without getting into the soil too much?
Thank you very much for giving us these tips! Very kind of you. Thanks!
I've failed with the Pinkerton I got from you guys last season. I'm in a very low lying area and in heavy rain the ground gets saturated. I grow my fruit trees in 900 round birdies raised beds and the citrus, choc pudding etc all do fine. I thought the Avo would too. It looked great for three months or so and then a heavy rain. Within days it started dropping all its leaves and now sits there with none, waiting for me to pull it out and put something else there.... :-( I believe the water wicked up into the garden bed drowning the poor thing :-( These things really don't like too much water!
That's sad! Pinkerton is a very good variety. There is a video by Mike (Self Sufficient Me) on how to plant avocados on mounts to prevent root rot
Well I grow my avocado in Stony soil grows well from seed, it is now 18 months old, it is now 1.5m diameter and 1.75m high. I do live in the tropics
I realised now that I have avocado in my house. I placed a seed a year ago in a pot in my living room, and forgot about it, a plant has grown there and now I remembered while watching a cartoon with my little cousins.
I live in Tonopah Arizona. I recently bought two Avocado trees but haven't planted them yet because I don't know what I can do yet to help these trees to grow. Your video is helpful but I have summer heat I have to protect my new trees from. I am not sure that shaded areas are even going to work because it may be too hot even in the shade. Any suggestions?

A Vietnamese planted avocados , tangerines , persimmons , pomegranates and mandarin oranges 10 years ago , the entire back yard is an orchard..what a pain to mow
Avocados like water. We harvested almost 250 fruit from June - Sep. Tree is planted on side of hill, good drainage. Pounded in fertilizer spikes at drip line. When fruit is growing, water 5 min every other day at trunk or fruit will start to fall. We connected a dedicated water line to tree to remember to water. Trim top of tree every other year. Grown from seed. Avocados turn crimson when ripe, supposed to be Caribbean variety.
Wait....so you want well draining soil just to cover it with mulch to retain water and water it often? Seems counterintuitive 🧐
Because it needs water but you don't want the roots in wet soil all the time.
it took them 3 years to harvest mines took 9months
@MelodicWolf he prob bought a grafted tree and it may have already been ready to fruit
Was it grown from seed or did you buy a grafted tree?
Sounds like you bought a mature tree in a 15 gallon pot. Mystery solved.
Wow healthy fruits nice to meet you new friend watching your video
Thanks for the video. I have some questions. The first is: Is simultaneous cross-pollination more efficient between two different verieties of avocado trees in the same field? Or can it also be done efficiently between trees of the same verieties? Which one is better? . Second: If it were better for simultaneous cross-pollination between two different verieties of avocado trees, which veriety would you prefer as the veriety that blooms simultaneously as a male and the Haas veriety as a female? Third: If we have a field with 100 trees totally, what is the appropriate number of male trees that correspond to the appropriate number of female trees or rather what is the ratio between them? What is the optimal distribution map for the distribution of those 100 trees in the field? Thank you very much in advance.
I live in California's Central Valley just south of Fresno. I planted two Avocado trees, one Pinkerton and one Jim Bean. My question is how hot does it need to get to place a shade net over them? It is May and already 82 degrees F. Shall I wait until it reaches 100? What temp do you recommend to put a Shade net?
In Guatemala Avocado trees are huge, really tall trees.
Bobby O do deer eat the leaves or the fruit?
Tricky weather as the grand solar minimum intensifies. Will use a shade tent for hot summers on my young tree. Thanks for your tips
I have put an organic sunscreen on the stems, but my leaves have brown ends. Is that sunburned leaves or to little or much water? thank you.
i bought grafted avocado plant from Daleys Nursery before three month. not yet start sprouting. Anyway can you please tell me how old they are now? its around 65cm.
If you have to cover them to protect them from frost, does that mean they won't grow where you have actual winter?
Do you still dig a big hole (ditch) then fill that up and mound it first.
Watched this again today...outstanding !
Great video, I have an Etinger Avocado in Israel, Last year I got hundreds of flowers and small Avocados, but most of them fell, and only 6 survived. They were huge and delicious. How can I get much more to hang on this year? Thanks Blessings.
Lovely viedo ..straight to the point ...I have two trees and they are big ..I feel the reason I don't have regular avocados is because of the bees ...where are the bees to pollinate the flowers .....bring back the bees please lord
Ainsley Ameerali have you tried planting things that attract bees like bee balm or even hand polinating?
Fletacarling I live in trinidad we are full of natural flowers and plants..it's the bees they all moved out
@@ainsleyameerali7622 It sounds like your country needs some people to become beekeepers. Another great thing about bees is the honey.

my Avocado tree is 1 years old at 5 feet tall the avocado was HUGE 3 pounder HASS and all ready growing inside so i just put it right in the ground
I hope I can grow one here in Sweden...

I wonder how it would respond to being grown atop a hugelculture setup.
My guess is it would grow pretty much like everything else grown on a Hugleculture...amazingly!

why do they say if I grow a fruit tree from seed the fruit will not be good? My avocado, mango, citrus, are mostly from seed.. I am keeping them pruned.. my garden is becoming a jungle.. I will need to do some clearing out as rainy season is basically here.. my mango is coming back with a vengeance after I made a hard cut.. i decided to make it short and the trunk is about 2 1/2".. I chop and drop everything. My beds are getting high. my pathways flood easy.. i need to dig swales around the beds.. or become an octopus 🐙
I read that its not that the fruit will be bad, its that it takes 10 to 20 years for a tree to give fruit when grown from seed whereas a grafted one maybe 4 years or so.
what area you live in?
Sometimes, as with most apples, fruit from grocery stores will be from a hybrid that will take on different traits the following generation. That's where a lot of the confusion comes from
Planting from seed has a random chance of how the tree will turn out in terms of its fruit quality. Citrus is notorious for having fruit inconsistencies, causing some segments from being completely different to others in the same fruit.
At this point of time, avocadoes need to be grafted to ensure strong root growth and healthy fruit. It also reduces the maturity time from 8-10 years to 2-5 years. There is a few research projects in Australia that are trialing methods that remove the grafting process completely. However, they're not currently financially viable solutions.
Mangoes love to be treated harshly. A good heavy prune helps to imitate damage from major storms and hurricanes/cyclones. Trim your mango trees hard back everyone 3-5 years, and you'll have a good producing tree all of the time.
I have a 1,5 years old avocado in a 30 cm deep clay pot. What fertilizer should I use? Should I replace a soil? If so, how often?
I have avocado trees growing in my yard that the squirrels planted from pits I threw out for them to eat. I need to cut them down because they're going to get HUGE. I lived in Mexico some years back and avocado trees there were ginormous! My yard isn't large enough for them! I see that your tree is small. Do you cut it back & it stays that small? Or is it a dwarf tree? I would love to have fresh avocados at the ready, but I can't really let them take over my yard & shade off my garden. Any suggestions??? Also, how old do the trees have to get to begin producing? I live in Florida.
What’s all the white powdery sap I’m getting? Branches are seeping sap then breaking off.
i have like 3 avocado trees now and they all very young like 1 year old, but some people said avocado trees do not give fruit after like 15 to 30 years? is that true that long time?
For those grown from seed 10 to 20 years easy. Grafted you can get fruit as early as 4 years but grafted plants also have more problems with disease and such that kill them off.
i have a 30+yrold tree in very poor draning soil. its doing very well. i never directly water it and never directly feed it. it has given me fruit every year i have rented the house
Best guide
4,300 feet altitude, 9.5" of rain a year. Oranges don't grow here in Nevada either.
I grew my avocados in pots. They always die when they are around 3 ft tall. Each avocado I planted have had differently shaped leaves. I hear many say that only grafts will fruit. So where did the first graft come from? Also what if there is no avocado fruit bearing tree around from which I can get a branch to graft?
If the tree is from the nursery it will already be grafted with your chosen variety. If grown from seed it's a hybrid that will take many years to be fully established before it fruits.
I live in Los Angeles, California and I'm growing an avocado tree from its seed. Im in the process of the seed sitting in water..the roots are massive and a little stem is starting to grow. My question is once the seed is ready to pot, should I pot 2 of the avocado seeds together in 1 pot to help produce fruit??
Once the stem is big and strong enough you can gently remove the plant from the water container and place it in the trash can together with the other avocado, then head to the store. This method will provide you with avocado fruits with a 100%success rate. Any other method has a 0% chance unless you live in a land where avocados can grow outside
Even if you are unable to get your avocado tree to fruit, the leaf makes a delicious, anis-like tea that acts as a kidney cleanse, traditionally used in SE Asia.

I had started my avocado plant by seed, it is now a very healthy small tree, about 3' in height. Do you have to graft an avocado tree in order to have avocado, I was recently informed of this. I am trying to learn how to grow the things I enjoy eating.
Yeah sadly it needs to be grafted. Also unless you live in a land where Avocados can grow outside don't expect anything
So I live in Pennsylvania and my family is starting to grow avocado trees but how do we stop invasive bugs and fungi from killing it
i have 3 avocado tree 1 of them almost on the principal trunk something look like dry white powder om the corner of the trunk but when touch by hand look like somehow wett and the trunk is not green , a crusty trunk any advise about that
Wow i love avocado i remember it in the Philippines we have it in our backyard.
Help, I planted mine in the yard and mixed native soil (Los Angeles clay) with citrus soil but now it's all clay. I don't water often, 1-2 a week and it seems ok. Should I dig it up to put better soil?
it depends how established it is. If you have the risk of heavy rain that will cause wate-rlogging in your clay soil you do risk losing your trees. They prefer perfect drainage so a raised garden bed is ideal in soils like you have.
my 3 year tree was never the same after a week of extreme heat 100-110F and no shading, it dropped all it's leaves and has tried to restart twice with fresh ones that always brown up and drop. Now it's quit trying and the branches are darkening and breaking off. I think it's just about dead :(
I used to live in the lower Puna district of the Big Island of Hawaii. The land there is recent lava flow with very thin soil, or no soil at all. I could put an avocado seed on the bare lava ground, and it would grow. It would send roots right through that rock. The conditions were so perfect, it was hard to keep them down. I used to mutilate and butcher young trees, and they'd just bounce right back.
What distance between plants should be maintained? How tall they get?
I have avocado pits on water and they grow very good but my question is why is it that it gets red brown spots on the leaves?
Avo tree are not water plant, they must be planted in the ground or in a pot with soil
But they can grow really well at the start with just water
oa1986 that must be a plant virus
People's you should know that avos grown from seed rarely fruit... you really need a grafted plant for success (eventually).. 🙏🏻🤞
Can be from any other avocado tree or needs to be from a tree that is already giving fruits?
Why is that? I find that hard to believe that they won’t ever fruit. It should most definitely fruit one day. It may not be nice fruit but I have heard many people getting fruit from seedling grown avos.
@@NMW80 When you cross pollinate 2 avocado trees the variety will be a unique variety. Sometimes that variety will be very close to the parent trees variety. Often time the fruit produced will be more unique. Maybe better, often times sterile or another odd defect like taste, size, etc. If you want a Hass or Pinkerton tree, You need to graft a piece of that variety to a root stock. Grafted trees will produce in about 3 years. While a tree grown from a seed won't produce til 10 or more years.
@@EJisArete omg I didn’t know they could end up sterile. Is this due to it being gmo?
I know it takes ages to fruit with seed and that they may not turn out good but I’m still growing some from seed because it’s fun seeing them grow. Plus it’s exciting knowing it’s a one of a kind avocado you are growing and it may turn out amazing. I also have 4 grafted varieties I bought too and plan to graft when my seedlings grow up more. Im looking for Mexicola or some kind of Mexican avocado just like that. I can’t get that kind in Australia though which sucks, I would love to grow some Mexicola seeds and see what they turn out like.
@@NMW80 Mostly when you grow from seed it's a pollination issue. What type of avocado cross pollinated it? Since most varieties are hybrids anyhow the mix of genetics will give you a mystery avocado tree. You could get a tepid tree or a awesome tree. That's why growers get grafted varieties. Harvest is predictable and productive.
Nurseries tend to sell trees that grow well in your region. Good luck. Growing a tree orchard can be challenging, but it is rewarding.
Sorry please explain more gypsum help? Apart from breaking clay soil? Thanks
Need some advice I planted a avocado seed and didnt think was going to grow but did I let it grow for maybe 4 to 5 months was very healthy almost 2 feet long.. but it was in a spot I knew had to be moved so one day i dug around it and got it out having to cut some roots that were going pretty deep down but still the seed was still there and some roots so I stuck in a new location and now a week later my poor tree went from being so healthy now looking like its dying... I know It can be normal but now leaves are completely dry and I'm worried because at very top its turning black the tip of the tree but the trunk still is firm but dont want the black to spread should I cut it or just leave it alone??? Thanks for any tips appreciate it
Great information thanks
I think that I will be deep planting my seed Avo's in Casino after making a HUGE hole with Excavator, and then Mulch up a dozen trees to pad the outside of the roots whilst the inside ring area has lots of soil, and have no mound.. I may use cardboard between the soil and the mulch till the roots need more water.. I wont tell you if it works :D Though Daleys may get an idea coz I will probably need a lot of avos :)
It's easier looking after a two year old. I will have to prepare before buying a few.
Where do you get your two year olds? I get mine at Whole Foods.
+dandymcgee w
merkaba It can definitely produce fruit, but there is no guarantee that the fruit will be anywhere as good as the original fruit. And of course seed grown trees are much later to produce fruit than a graft from already-producing wood.
Good video and great song too 🎶
Good morning my name is Charlie I need your advice on on my avocado tree plant from seed it's a pinketon its bark it start to die off what should I do
Thanks for this very useful information.
I have an avocado every day, But not from out of my garden - You see I live in Scotland which am sure we can't grow Avocado here in our climate - or can we?
Do you have to regrow an avocado tree every time there is no more avocados or does the tree just grow more avocados without you having to do anything?
Hi, i am looking for a matured avocado plant, that will fruit this year. Please let me know where i can buy them from. I currently live in Melbourne. I have asked quite a few nursery and gumtree, but no luck. Thank you
That's an excellent amount of information. I had several tree starts... and the llama decided she could eat it's succulent leaves and stems... and .... she's gone to another home now.... I wish I had them back.. I am looking forward to trying this.
So I guess the seeds that I put in water after I peeled them will not grow either ever or in 10 to 14 years in enormous pots in my house because I live in VA. Crazy but I'm a die hard I'll see how far it goes. I've got plants I've had for years. I'm a container grower not because of a shortage of land. I have an acre, it's I have dogs. In particular a Jack Russell. The digger. Wish me luck! I love avocado's. Just hate the GMO crap that we are buying in all so called fresh food stores. Or that slow boat from China.
My dog dug up one of my bell pepper plants yesterday. The one with the most peppers on it. I am hoping to make some sweet pepper relish. So I will need 18 bell peppers. After my dog destroyed the pepper plant, he stomped through my crowder peas, ruining a few of those. He also chewed up the upholstery of my car and pulled the headliner down. Very destructive child, but I love him.
