I am new to the forum and avocado. I have been reading this threads every nights but only got to page. 10. I am intending to finish them all to pickup all I could from your experience. I recently bought a Holiday in 3 gallons, a Reed in red sleeve and a Carmen in black sleeve from Laguna Hills Nursery. My wife and daughter love cado and mango. They could have them every day if they could. I like to have a happy family so I decided to plant our own. However, I got over excited and over bought.
I now have a dilemma-my back yard is too small for all 3 avocado in the ground along with 3 mango and a atemoya. Some plants have to go in the future if they don't do well. I am thinking of grafting of more cultivars to the best plant in the future for more varieties. Most likely I have to do the same for the mango.
Which of the 2 avocado should I transplant to the ground and which one should be in the pot? I have a Holiday, a Reed and a Carmen. Which one have the best chance for success in a small garden in raise bed because of Orange's clay soil.
Thank you in advance for feedback.
