- anthk 2y agoAnd yet some idiots want to grow these in Spain in the 2nd worst place of the country to plant these beside of the Almeria and Aragonese deserts. And, yes, I know Spain it's highly irregular and due to the orography you can have literal deserts and green, Britain-like mountains and later Montana/Idaho like flat farmfields over very few hours by car kinda like USA.zip, but that's not the point.

- anthk 2y agoHigh humidity and the climate it's UK like. If avocado can grow up in Wales/Ireland, it might work under Galicia. Still, it's prone to speculation and it needs tons of water, something the Eastern of the country is not short of.
