I'm just wondering if there are any folks wanting to share they're expertise concerning trimming avocado trees. Last year I trimmed mine severely, all my neighbors told me I had killed the tree. This year I had the largest crop of avocados of anyone in the neighborhood. Since I don't like avocados I wasn't too concerned about killing the tree. I think I recall muttering die tree die, as I sawed off branches. My question is, do you trim yours to 10 foot or under, also, when do you trim yours. I usually wait till I can unload the last of the fruit on my neighbors.
