Question

We have 5 Avocado trees, all healthy, 4-5 years old. No fruits sofar. Any ideas as to waht is to be done to make the trees yield fruits?

Answer 1

First of all, are you purchasing a tree from a nursery or growing a tree from seed? If purchasing a tree, you can probably expect to see your first fruit 3-4 years after planting the tree. If growing from seed, it can take anywhere from 5 to 13 years before the tree is mature enough to set fruit. When the tree does flower, expect a lot of flowers to fall from the tree without setting fruit. This is natural.
