  1. very useful pointers. I live in Los Angeles and picked a few avocados from a giant tree from my friend's backyard. They feel kinda rubbery after keeping them on my kitchen counter for 5 days. Will get more later on using your tips. Good on ya, mate!!!

  2. do not peel the fucking avocado- peel 200 in a day, and you will find an easier method- simply slice the avo or dice it in the shell- add lime immediately – himy salt if you prefer– than simply scoop out of hull- with a soup spoon- ez pz!

  3. what type of avo is that Mark? we have Fuerte, from the one tree we get 200+ every year, they have a thin skin and the rule of thumb we were told is its ready to eat when its softer than your nose and firmer than your cheek. we pick them when the stalk starts to darken.

  4. I wait for it to fall from the tree and everyday, morning and evening I check to see if any have fallen and those are always good avocados to begin ripening.

  5. Good day sir. I have an avocado tree in my backyard. Can you teach me how to grow faster may avocado tree. It is almost 3 feet now since i planted it.

  6. I have a hoss in my yard. Harvested over 100 avocados last year. Those are the ones the squirrels didn't get. This year so far I have 4 on the tree. Lol

  7. You can put then on tup of the refrigerator they be ready faster or you can wrap them in the newspaper and put them in your oven they will be ready fast too take care

  8. My avocado trees is like 4 years old…..its black long avocado with thin skinny…..I tried cutting at different stages to ripe…..but there are really hard on inside they dry hard does my tree need something I dont know vitamins…please can you help me……..they dont repen like a regular avocado…

  9. Now this is called a true info., as I was not expecting the perfect ending, I just thought he will end up his speech by showing the raw avocado in his whole video.
