My avocados are getting lost in translation

[Jingthing]

This is a very specific request for some expert help from a fluent Thai speaker.

 

I'm really big on avocados. Thai people traditionally aren't. Even though they are grown in Thailand you won't find them in Thai foods except perhaps some places making smoothies with them (as is very popular in the Philippines).

 

Anyway, avocados are a notoriously tricky fruit to buy in any country.

You can buy them firm and hope they ripen well but often they go from firm to rotten so then money wasted.

You can buy them "same day" which is fine if you're at the store and want to use them same day or possibly next.

What you would never do on purpose is to buy them mushy or over-ripe as those are basically garbage.

It's shocking sometimes to see Thai grocery stores leaving out entire trays of rotten cados. 

 

So I do my avocado shopping online.

 

For years I had the same picker who learned to bring me what I wanted.

Firm (unripe) avocados so I could take my chances. Once in a blue moon he would bring me rotten ones but that was so rare I didn't even bother to complain. Occasionally there were some same day ones which was actually OK for me.

 

Well my "trained" guy has moved on and I'm finding that my instructions which I've been putting in English are not working with the new crew. They just never fill my order at all so I'm pretty sure they don't understand and don't want to risk it.

 

I've been putting:

Firm (unripe) avocados

 

Of course Thai speakers would need to translate that I'm guessing it doesn't translate so well.

 

So what I'm looking for here is some THAI TEXT that Thai speakers who aren't avocado experts would understand well enough to fill my orders and also get the results that I want (no mushy, over-ripe, rotten fruits).
