What time is good in South Africa for grafting

I am from Nagaland India,what time will be the best for drafting of avocado fruits,since your place and India is quite different in weather so am confused about it

Hello, I live about two miles from you. I have a Blue Java that's about a year old and maybe 7 ft tall and had 3 big pups and one tiny already. Potted up one of the big ones and leaving two to keep growing.

I grow in a similar climate , now in winter temps have dropped to 35 f and yet my bananas are still ripening on the stems without protection ( a small starchy Asian variety) my cavendish are taking a bit of a beating but will bounce back

25 ft tall? Yup, got those too. They are regular Cavendish and hoping they will flower this year. My dwarf ones are hanging with clusters this year... yea!

Where do you recommend purchasing banana plants from?

Nice 👍

Your bananas look great, Jeff! I love banana plants, I just wished we had warmer temperatures for them in the summer months. So far, only my ornamental Musa basjoo has done well here, but I’ll keep trying with the edible types 🤞

I keep hearing bananas are easy but I've got a dwarf Orinoco and Namwah that have been stuck in first gear for a couple years. The get regular water and moderate fertilizer. They're heavily mulched and protected on one side by a fence. Mostly full sun in hot S. Arizona. Not sure what more they need at this point. Any thoughts?

Everything looks great jeff! I'm also surprised that more people don't grow bananas.

What do you fertilize it with and how often? I got an ice cream banana pup that sprouted 7 weeks ago after the mother plant died never fruiting or thriving where I originally had it. I'm trying to grow the pup in another part of my yard but am not getting consistent info online about what fertilizer to use. Some way high potassium fertilizer others say the usual balanced 15-15-15 and others a higher nitrogen fertilizer. My pup is about 2ft tall now.

I just posted a banana video too! Two in one day! All good!

I had read an article in the WSJ in the early 1990s that the banana plantations were being hit by something like nematodes or a virus and they would have to come up with a new variety as it was impacting the type of bananas we see in the stores. Never heard any update on this.

Hi best farm

hi jeff have you got pacific plantain in your tropical garden of paradise you look rather hot mate bit cold here only 71F to cold for me .terry

I live in San Diego and have tried grafting avocado trees many times. Always in January because that is when budwood is available from OC CRFG scion exchange. The failure rate was 100% though. Seemed like the wrong time to graft when avocado trees were still semi-dormant. I tried grafting in May this year and the graft was successful. The problem is I don't have access to budwood in spring.

Certain avocado tree fruit only every other year

@topicalgardenguy I add fish fertilizer with nitrogen and potassium and phosphorus. Like every two weeks has directed I give them two different types of fertilizer. The brand is Alaska.. one of them doesn’t have nitrogen and the other one has 10 potassium and 10 phosphorus and the other fertilizer has five nitrogen and one phosphorus and one potassium. How often should I water the tree and having the routine of the liquid fertilizer is a good? I live in Southern California and I see that it doesn’t have a lot of fruit like yours

How do you know if your graft took and how long does it take for the graft to fuse together

I was wondering if I could get some clippings from the giant Bay Area avocado. I’ll swing by.

Nice video , 🍺👍

You must own one🎉

Your tree is looking great! I wonder if your "Not Del Rey" is the same variety David Johnson sent me last spring with a few others. He only wrote "Tasty" on the bag, so I called it "Sabrosa" (since it's from a Mexican seedling). I grafted it to my multi-variety tree, and the fruit looks very similar to yours. Hopefully it will develop better flavor in Tucson's heat than it did on your tree!

Would you know why my avocado trees have so many dry branches or why do would just dry up? I water it 4 times a week

I noticed you have bananas at the side there. Have you had any that ever flowered? I've been trying to grow bananas in Modesto for some time now and I can never get them to survive the winter. I did have one survive before but it started to die later on.

Your video is so helpful ❤ I’m planting my plumeria in a pot right now and it’s summer time. How often should I fertilize the plant?

Can you please share where we can find bud wood here in the central valley ? I have over 10 seedlings that I would like to graft

Where do you get your scions? In the central valley as well

Why would anyone want to graft an avocado? They are so easy to grow from the seed (pip).

Great Video, Jeff ! And not just because we share the same, great first name ! -Jeff.😁👊 Here in the interior Metro Phx Zone 9B, we grow them everywhere ! I currently have 2 mango trees...once had a few more. They need protection for the 1st 2-3 winters & summers--then often do much better thereafter.

Did he protect it from the frost?

How/Where do You get adult cuttings from Avacados to graft to Your tree?

What advacado tree do you think does best in high temperatures Thanks

When is harvest season for your Carmen Hass? This is the first year mine has fruit on it and I want to know when to pick it.

thanks for posting.

Jeff, do you know what rootstock your tree is? I’m in the foothills above Roseville and we get similar temps.

Very cool Jeff , glad to see you have some monster fruit set I hope at least 1 can make it to 3 pound size, good call in grafting on lamb excellent choice, sorry queen turned out to be a dud and non - del ray, my sister still has a normal del ray it's a full Mexican.

That's looking very promising Jeff, hope the extreme heat doesn't mess things up. I did lose my grafted Mexicola Grande very frustratingly. Video posted today on the sad remains lol. Can't win them all I guess

I just drove through Modesto yesterday coming from Folsom going back home to Long Beach. Man, it was HOT in the central valley! It was a nice drive though. I like the central valley. Stay cool.

When weather permits, would you sell scions?

Can’t wait to start eating those avocados.

Thanks for sharing your fruit set.

Have you ever discussed how you prune a multi-grafted tree?

Hope you keep us up-to-date on how this fruit progresses.
