When you look at an avocado tree, you can see three two-year cycles simultaneously. The tree is concurrently:

  • Developing the current year's (year one) fruit and providing nutrients and resources that mature the fruit for harvest.
  • Supporting the needs of the year two fruit set that will be harvested the following year.
  • Producing new shoots and buds that will produce either vegetative or floral buds for the year three harvest.

Unlike deciduous fruit trees, which have defined seasons and go dormant annually — avocado trees are subtropical/tropical fruit trees that never go dormant. In other words, they are always growing and developing — even in winter (growth/development is just slower then). Understanding this simple fact — that avocado trees do not go dormant — is just one critical factor in understanding how an avocado tree grows and how that affects your productivity and profitability.

This section outlines the basic facts about California avocado trees and provides California avocad...
