    This one was on my list and I normally see it Big box stores but haven’t seen one since Ive been searching. So I ended up at Louie’s Nursery number two in Riverside. They have the best selection of avocados in at least a 30 miles radius. Even though there ( bigger ) than 5 gallon tree are a little much. The 5 gallon size for most varieties is $59 but. They are 3 to 4 times larger than any big box tree. Most HD avocados are $45 some are $34 the pinkerton I got was 5 ft tall and a truck diameter was right at an inch. This is the same size as 2 of my 15 gallon trees I still have in pots.

I bought half of 1 and ate most of it. i remember it was so good but i got bad diarrhea. i would be interested in growing jackfruit but i am planning a massive Mango and dragonfruit project.

  • @RichsTopGardening
    @RichsTopGardening 7 днів тому

    Thank you for sharing this! This is now one of my most favorite videos of your channel! I absolutely enjoyed your contagious excitement! Absolutely one of my favorite fruits and I can go through a 40 lb jackfruit in just days. I think everyone should experiment with seeds of strains with smaller fruited varieties that ripens quicker. Seedlings grow and seems to flower very early as little as 3 or 4 years here but those early flowers usually are just male blooms. Trees definitely grow here but fruits seem to struggle to ripen or not rot through our winters. Hopefully encouraging more seedlings planted we'll one day have a solid local variety.

    • @AJTheGraftMan
      @AJTheGraftMan 7 днів тому
