I bought a Hass avocado tree in a 15 gallon pot that already had tiny avocado fruits on it. I re-planted it in a larger container. A few days later, a majority of my tiny avocados fell off.
Should I pick off all those long stems that originally had the tiny fruits to promote new growth or do I leave them on the tree and they will eventually produce fruit?
I have no idea what to do. Can any expert answer this question?
Thanks in advance.

I think the transplant shocked it a little. Make sure you add mulch and water deeply.
I think my avocado plant is okay at this point, but I'm not sure if I should pick those long stems to promote growth.
Thanks everyone for your help.
That must have been a lot of fun!!
It seems avocado trees are more prone to shock than many other plants/trees but, hopefully, yours will recover. i believe it is recommended to not do anything but wait and see what happens. Of course that does not mean to stop watering it but NO fertilizer for a while.

I hope you have excellent luck with your avocado tree but I cannot find anything that states an answer to what is bothering you.
I love to read many sites where "experts" give advice as sometimes one makes things a little clearer than another. One of these experts stated this: Avoid pruning branches that have buds or flowers. Avocado trees do not benefit from heavy pruning. Another site states to trim off dead parts after fruit dies.

I still have not found the answer to my question and will look around further.
The websites mentioned are very useful.
Thank you for your time.
