ive had major issues with fastgrowingtrees. they've sent me dead trees on more than one occasion, I've sent the pictures to them, they promise to replace them and then after a couple months ill message them because I've not heard anything and they will basically say they are sorry and will get right on it but never actually replace them. my mango tree purchase was 2 years ago now and still haven't received the replacement lol. The trees are nice when they arrive healthy and they tend to have some hard to find varieties so I'm not telling people not to buy from them, just know the risks. I've spent about 2k at their store and have only had this happen on 2 separate occasions so like 10% of the time.

We got 4 avocado seeds growing in just water and about to transfer them into pots. They already sprouted and grown into about a foot or foot and half baby trees.
We live in the high desert so we have to keep them inside during winter nights and inside during the summer.
Hopefully the 2 seeds from the tree my dad planted (also from a seed given to him) grow well. I've never liked Hass. Every time we buy them at the market they never tasty oily or creamy enough. My mom says the taste like water and no flavor. I think the one he planted was either a Pinkerton, Fuerte, or Zutano.

Hey Kevin, about a year and a half ago I successfully germinated an avocado seed. Since then the sapling has grown to about a yard high. Recently, I repotted the sapling into a larger pot, then a couple of days afterwards, made the mistake of overwatering it. When I found it 12 hours after watering it was completely drooped. To try and fix this I moved the soil around and poked holes to try and airate it. Do you have any suggestions that I could do that would help my sapling recover?

Question: my 17 year old haas has yellow spots, the trunk, branches have long areas of holes or depressions. My neighbor wont trim his trees, huge palms fronds are imposing to the west. There was an abundant yield over the Spring. Now problems. Im in Oceanside. Do I rake all fallen leaves away? Do I apply something to stop bark from further depressions? What to spray on yellow spotted leaves and what to fertilize with to stop problems. Thank you!

Thanks for demonstrating why one should not create a tutorial just because a friend has an old avocado tree. The first rookie giveaway was the fact that he couldnt even pronounce the name of the tree correctly. Avocado trees do require quite a bit of water but only every five days or so even in extreme heat. Watering daily is a good way to drown the roots. Video tutorials are more useful when based on your own experience.

I have an avocado that started having little brown spots, and the leaf is starting to crinkle. I grew it from seed, my first time trying to grow this sort of plant.
I grew in my bedroom until the little gnats coming out of the soil became too much even with Neem Oil. So it sits outside now getting a lot of Florida sun.
I water every other day, basically me waiting for the soil to dry out before watering again.

My parents left me a small home in the Caribbean with a huge avocado tree and a guava tree. The avocado towers over the small house and shades the entire yard. Caribbean avocados are huge and taste different than hass. I would love to plant a hass but It wont get any sun with the other tree there and it gets to cold here in GA. I do love & appreciate the trees though. It feels like my parents are there.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I live in Minnesota. Obviously, they wouldn't do well in the cold. But, I am thinking about building a large green house and growing one or two in it. My questions are: 1. Can they thrive in that environment given I make the conditions you gave. 2. How tall do Hass avacodo trees get and how far do the branches spread out? Thank you much.

There is no shortage. There are too many people. They are expensive because the market is greedy. All ORGANIC trees planted from seed in sufficient conditions bare fruit. He is trying to sell saplings. Growing trees, any tree is cool, but the turn around for fruit is numbing. If youre in the Midwest and you want an avacado tree and youre an adult - just stop. Reality check!

Everyone knows that hass avocados yields Every year some better than others. Some twice a year. I have a very large avocado Tree 15 years plus. My avocado tree is now flowering. But it still has fruit remaining. My question is Will the remaining fruit effect the fruit drop for this year. The reason is I can have a lot of friends or enjoy the avocados year round.

First of all, this Uncle, his name is Kevin. Not Eric. This video packs a lot of information. Yes, right in the very beginning, he shills for some tree seller. I am sure that they paid him for that. But that doesn't make the video any less relevant. You don't like it? Don't buy a tree from that seller. Find another seller.

Good info! I must check into the Hass discovery.
You say he couldn't graft, so he planted a seed and wham! behold there is the now 'Hass' avacado. So it was never before? What did he create or invent or discover?
Later you say you can't grow a Hass type from seed. Ok, I'm going to hit the net and do some research!

Fast growing tree on line is a rip off. I bought a 6' ft avocado tree for $199, it said will fruit in a year, it's been over a year and nothing. I received it in a big box, the tree was around 6' ft, but is was very skinny, the main stem was around 1/2 inch in thickness. Do not buy from them, buy local or home depot.
