When Cutting Open The Avocado, Do So As You Normally Would, But Use A Little Bit More Caution So As To Avoid Damaging The Seed.

Put the avocado pit, pointy side up, into the hole. Make sure the picks are placed so that the bottom 1/3 of the pit (the broader end) is submersed. Poke a toothpick in the center of the seed, about where the equator would be on a globe, tucking just about ¼ to ½ inch into the seed.

Avocados (Persea Americana) Grow To 30 Feet Tall As An Erect Tree When Planted Outside In The Ground.

Identify the top and bottom of the pit and place the widest part at the bottom. To keep your plant happy, the key is to avoid overwatering: Suspend the avocado pit over a glass of water with the pointy end sticking up.

As Soon As You Finish Eating Your Avocado, Stick Three Toothpicks Into The Sides Of The Pit So It Can Balance On A Small Juice Glass Or Jar Filled Partly With Water.

When you notice this, your seed is ready to transplant. Then poke two to three more toothpicks. If it doesn’t, adjust the toothpicks.

Grab A Glass Of Water And Set The Toothpicks On The Opening.

Move the seed into soil when it’s ready. Buy an avocado, enjoy the luscious green flesh, then wash the seed. Be careful not to damage the outer shell of the pit, as this may cause the pit to rot.

Eventually, Stems And Leaves Will Sprout As Well.

Carefully remove the pit from the avocado. Once the root is prevalent, place the pit in a glass of water. After a while, you may notice the cracks on your avocado pit start to really get defined.
