Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Pumice Alternatives SoCal
« on: May 20, 2023, 06:45:01 PM »
Original poster: I see your in Pomona.
There's a seller (Eric) on Offer up selling pumice I think is reasonable. $10 approximately 5 gal but bagged.
He's located in San Dimas-Covina area.

Hey Brad,
It's been a few weeks but had the Sir Prize, Fuerte and Hass. All great tasting.
I may have waited a little long on the Fuerte. Had a little stringing.
Still waiting on the Pinkerton and Sharwil as they are still hard.
Thank you

Tintn00,
Hows the pricing on the various varieties compared to big box stores?
Probably worth the drive for the GEM but wondering for the other types too.

Hey Brad.
What can I say. What a beautiful garden.

I tried looking for farfield but can't find it. members talk about commercial line too so I was wondering if this is the right one? I found it at a shop in South el Monte for 30 bucks out the door about 10bucks cheaper then other place I have scoped. 3.8cuft yoo


Hey Boxturtle,
Which store did you go to?
I search the PROMIX website and there's no store in South El Monte.
The closest distributor was in Ontario.

funlul,
That's great your grafts worked out and now fruiting.
The past 2 years went fast.

According to the label, they are CA Haas.
I had the same problem with rotten avocado's from Costco.
I think JF posted the same issue a while back.
I'm not a expert but they seem a bit large for CA Hass compare to store bought at Staters, Albertsons

Take care and get well fast.
My dad has gout, exercise when you can, eat better and find the correct amount of meds to take that doesn't mess with other functions.

15
JF,
It's been a while.
Avocados trees look very healthy.
One of mine dropped most all the leaves (I probably should cover it), the other is fine.
Hope to see you soon.

Socal10b,
Looking good.
From your pic the Lamb Hass trunk sure grew from year 1 to 2.
You must have good soil.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: El Bumpo Avocado? Naw, can't be....
« on: March 02, 2014, 09:10:07 PM »
Maybe Whitsell. That is what mine looked like very bumpy, but my tree will only fruit a few a year.
I have been trying to change the variety by re-grafting, top working to a few more productive types.

21
That's the address on the OC web site. Not sure about the zip.
Got of of work so I'll make it..finally :)

I would like to try girdling my non producing avocado tree before I top it off.
is girdling done on green or brown wood?
How close to the trunk?
Thanks

Hey Rodney,

24
JF,
Very nice tree.
How old is it?
What's the current height?
Sir prize is one variety I like to grow also.
