Hi all, I'm going to be planting an early tree for a friend.  I don't want my bias to cloud the choice.
(I've tasted most of the more common varieties)
Lets define "early" as fruit bearing from March-June.
Zone 10a coastal.
Thanks in advance for your replies...

What is the consensus on the "Florida Haas"?  I want to shy away from another Guatemalan type avocado, I have several neighbors with trees that produce huge crops.  According to internet wisdom, the FH was selected from a tree in Fort Myers.  Supposedly a decent Mexican type avocado.  Apparently self-fruitful...  Anybody out there with experience with the above?
Open to suggestions.  I'm located in Englewood, 10a
Thanks

Hi all, as title suggests, I'm in need of all the advice I can get. 
I've read/watched most of the stuff on the 'net via google search function.  I now have a grafting knife, parafilm, and grafting tape.  I have 10 seedling subjects for the endeavour (Duncan and VP).  I think I'm ready.
The tree that I want to clone is an old neighborhood mango tree (probably a seedling) that produces some very good fruit.  I understand that the optimal time to obtain budwood is after inflorescence in the spring, I assume first budswell after. 
Anything I'm missing?  Tips, etc...?
Thanks in advance for any replies.....
