Developing avocado fruits, June of 2021

I found 14 accessions that made the fruitlets this year. I don’t expect all will hold the fruits to the maturity as some are recent grafts or new trees. Today we expect to reach 100F, and tomorrow we are up to 110F.

Plenty of fruits on my old tree. I suspect most will make it through the Thursday heat of 110F.

Aravaipa  

Not a lot of fruits this year as I had to prune these branches significantly.

  2. I hope maybe 10 cultivars will get to maturity this year. It would be really cool to get Daily 11 fruits in Davis. These are really large avocados
