Any update on your avocados?

[laurice101]

Tropical trees like avocados are really easy to grow in our country. There was a time when we ate avocado and we just thrown it away in front of your backyard. After several weeks, we saw this seed has started to grow. And my father then dug it and placed it behind our house.

[size=18]I planted several Hass pits after they dried. 8 came up I thinned them down to the 5 best looking. At 6 months they bloomed and I now have avocado fruit on 2 of them. They are planted in a raised bed I used to grow peppers and squash in. How is it possible to have fruit on a tree that is only 2 feet tall and 6 months old?

No that's no natural at all. Plants can get pushed to bloom when they are stressed, so try to water more or fertilize less. If the plant has fruit, cut them off, because the plant isn't strong enough to support fruit yet. Just keep waiting.
