Thanks for not stealing the spotlight like most youtubers would do. You allowed them to shine and inspire other people through your videos.
Perfect and honest explanation of everything. You earned a sub.

This is the best grafting video I have seen. The grafting is done low in the seed plant and looks good. In Malaysia the grafting is done more than a foot above the base of the seed plant.

Jorge and Yolanda. Thank you. With the names you have you are doing the right job. Both your names are of Greek origin: Jorge comes from Georgios which means "farmer". Yolanda comes from "Yolantha" which means "Violet". Thank you.

They seem so gennuine and happy when grafting. A good way to escape the trouble and frustration of bad luck from seedlings by grafting

Yet another video full of valuable information delivered in a way that even a knucklehead like me can understand. Tom, your Spanish is excellent!

Tom you inspired me to plant some avocado seeds last month in February. I have 60 going so far and a few have are starting to sprout. BTW Jorge's the man.

Thanks, this was enlightening and entertaining. The best part, you gave credit to Jorge and Yolanda for sharing their knowledge with us.

Most people in our country don't know about these methods. It's a very good lesson for the people who are intereated about grafting

I took your advice that you gave. I asked if the tree has already set fruit. When can I take a cutting for scion wood. You said after the fruiting period when the new growth starts. The fruit was still hanging on the tree but new growth started with swollen buds on the growth. I took those cuttings 1 month ago and I grafted on to two of my seedlings. And the one is taking. New leaves are growing now on my graft. So exciting. I'm actually headed into winter. We are in autumn now but I have my grafted tree indoors so it will be safe until spring. But thanks for that advice. My friend planted an avacado tree from seed but didn't have space to plant it out, and he gave it away to a family friend member and that guy planted it in the ground. That avacado tree grows better avacados than any variety I ever tasted. Creamy, sweet, it's huge avacados too. So now that I successfully grafted a tree in spring I'm going to try and get a cutting from that tree of my friend and try to grow it. Buy I just wanted to say thanks because I took your advice and it helped because I was unsure about when to take a cutting and what to look for.

Another great video! Thanks from south Texas. We have a small avocado orchard here, just for personal consumption. Love watching your videos. Hopefully someday I can make it back down to Florida to see your farm.

I have a 10+ foot avocado tree grown from a seed. Thanks to this video I grafted a few haas and bacon avocado branches to it. 3 out of 6 have leaf sprouts now. One has some dead/back on it but sprouting too. I’m excited for years to come and hopefully get some fruit!
