Millet----thank you for your advice.
Container Man----thank you too.
I'm still very impressed with your Little Cado growing technique in wine barrel for 6+ years without repotting it.
last season it had 45 fruit this season I just counted and it has 33 fruit. I pruned the lower branches last season and they came back with twice as many vigorous ones. I'm expecting a better season this coming year.
Yeh, that is plenty of fruits for container grown tree. My wurtz is on its second year in the ground and bears its first 6 fruits. Can't wait to taste them.
You are growing Gem avo in pot too? Has it gaven you any fruits yet? If so, how do you like the taste?
I went to Brokaw in Oxnard by my house, to buy Gem avocado. But they only sell a quantity of 25+ plants. What a bum!
Still in search for mini-nugget barks for the container grown... I have found Whittier Fertilizer in Pico Riviera selling mini-nuggets. I'm going to drive there to check them out. Hopefully it will be the right stuffs. Do you screen your bark nuggets ?
Tangerine trees do not like sand, do they? I mixed 40% sand, 20% perlite, 30% coco coir, and 10% peat for potting mix. They are not happy due to drainage issue.
