As of now, I only can say that the fruit quality is excellent. For the flesh to seed ratio I need more fruits.Marta Matvienkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550241872029370987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3161591018128431706.post-34656773298510683202021-02-03T15:30:45.655-08:002021-02-03T15:30:45.655-08:00I was impressed with how fast those avocado scions...I was impressed with how fast those avocado scions arrived after I ordered them, and you even included a bonus! Thank you so much. <br /><br />Looking at the pictures on your avocado variety post, it looks like the “Second Red” variety has an impressive seed:flesh ratio. Was that just an artifact of the way it was cut/camera angle? Or does it truly have a tiny pit? <br /><br />Thanks for taking the time and initiative to investigate, propagate and share new and interesting varieties. I only recently discovered your blog after someone linked to it from the comments section of Greg Alder’s blog, but I am glad I did. I really appreciate your attention to detail and scientific perspective of your posts. I am learning a lot.<br /><br /><br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05115662414864620483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3161591018128431706.post-20422106481169772252021-01-29T09:17:59.997-08:002021-01-29T09:17:59.997-08:00That was Tanglefoot Tree Wound Pruning Sealer &...That was Tanglefoot Tree Wound Pruning Sealer & Grafting Compound.
