Gardeners in the Asylum

Well fellas, I think I can officially post in this thread now. Wife and I and fed up with having nothing in the yard. We decided and purchased an avocado tree (10-12 yrs old), and 2 citrus trees (potted right now), tomatoes, cilantro, peppers, basil, and mint. We'll see how far we can take them. Hopefully our green thumbs don't give way.

Any advice on any of these? Definitely do not want to see any of them perish, especially the avocado tree.

Jay, where abouts are you now in SoCal and what variety of Avocado did you purchase? Is it a standard, semi-standard, or dwarf tree?
