Hi. At 24:57 how did you get that cutting? It looks like a whole avocado? Can you explain further?
By the way, good luck on your new channel. It looks like a hit already! Love it! I just watched your video on ginger. Another great video.
❤ I’ll be starting my own pretty soon and hope it’s as good as yours, but not on gardening.
I get cuttings in brilliant growth. Also I grow some seedlings, bud graft them in time,2 years ahead.
I plant seeds that are already in seedling stage inside the fruit itself. Parthenocarpy or so.
I find that direct planting in the ground or pots will produce fruit in 3-5 years.
Thanks for all this. Remember (veterinarian here) that ALL parts of avocado plant (from leaves to fruit to pits) are extremely toxic to equids (horses, donkeys, etc) and psittacine birds (parrot family). So make sure you don’t plant them anywhere leaves can blow into Horse paddocks. Horses can live adjacent to or beneath these trees for years and then one day they get sick… And without intensive care, and sometimes with intensive care, will die. I have no more horses and now I can plant avocados. 🙂
Thank you for the share.
Lye
SORRY NONE OF MINE EVER TOOK OFF TRYING TO GROW THEM LIKE THAT, THEY PREFER TO GO STRAIGHT INTO DIRT AND KEPT WARM.
Check out the channel called, Gary's best , for more videos on growing Avocados
I have a bacon avocado tree in my greenhouse. Last year I lost all my blossoms. The year before I harvested some fruits, any suggestions. I live in zone 8. The tree is approximately 6 years old 14 feet tall. Have had multiple fruit sets and then most are aborted only a few remain. Merry Christmas.
Clean seed off well, put in a sandwich baggie with a damp paper towel and toss it in the cabinet. Done. Seed will root, then put in soil. You're welcome.
I have 5 avocado trees from my backyard, grown from pits, they are now 5 years old. Two of them have flowers for the last 2 years but no fruit. The other 3 haven't any flower yet. I have pruned them once. Can you give some advice how to get my trees to grow fruits, thanks.
@TheMillenialGardener content is so good it's being harvested /used on A I videos now… 🧐
NOTE" you cannot grow a good tasting Avocado from a seed you need to clone it from the original tree. Avocados from a seed often taste bad (bland, bitter, soapy) because they are genetically unique, not clones, inheriting a random mix of traits from both parent trees, unlike commercial varieties which are grafted clones of known good fruit
Do not do any of this. Buy 2 grafted trees from your local nursery
Male and female.😅
. Get the kind you want. Have avocados in one year . 2 or 3.
AI generated some of this is true. Pictures are plucked from YouTube video clips. But still some useful information for beginners.
i plant the pits in pots and it grows but the problem here by us it freezes in winter ,buy now i knows and will takes it inside during wnter
from 16.00 minute to 18.34 minute it is video from The Millennial Gardener https://www.youtube.com/@TheMillennialGardener/search?query=avocado
They like sandy soil and not a lot of watering needed. Best to plant e few close to each other.
How many years does it take before the plant makes avocados?????
I'm guessing all the success stories are from warmer climates.
