HOW TO GROW AVOCADO TREE FROM SEED.

Need something to do during this quarantine. 🤷‍♀️

I don't even know how I got here I started out watching cooking videos and now I want to grow a avocado tree

I tried it And now its an AVOCADO (PLANT) Thaaaaaanks

I randomly planted an avocado seed under the soil mixed with coffee in a whiskey glass just for the sake of an experiment and the seed grew into a sapling to my surprise in about a week. I soon transferred the growing sapling into a pot in my balcony garden. It's well fed and is growing healthy.😊

Why am I watching this I don’t even like avocados 🥑 Quarantine got me growing trees

I used this method and the seeds usually sprouted, but not every time. But then I discovered an improvement to this method and the seeds will sprout EVERY SINGLE TIME, no exceptions. This works 100%. Here it is: After you peel the skin off, take a small knife and run it through the seams on the seed. You'll see the seams clearly - it is where the seed would naturally crack open. Using the small knife you wanna open the seed yourself, BUT make sure that the two halves remain connected with the middle part (the little thing that the plant actually grows from). If you do it so that in the end you can slightly shake both halves independent from one another, but that small thing in the middle still holds them together, you've done it right, after that do the standard toothpick thing with the glass of water and the plant will sprout 100% because the sprouting part will be in direct contact with water. The seed sprouted every single time I tried this, without a single exception.

We did this last year as a school project. Of the 12 seeds, only one sprouted roots. End of the school year (May), Tree was 13 inches tall. 13 months later, it stands about 2 1/2 feet tall (cool colors on the plant too). This year, I added a grow light to see if it would help - Started August 24th, Today Sept 20 - 8 roots out of 23 seeds, with several more looking to sprout. Hoping to have 15 trees over 20 inches by the end of the school year.

2014: Nope 2015: Nah 2016: Heck no 2017: Hmm.. no 2018: No I’m good 2019: Maybe but... no 2020: PERFECT YES ITS TIME.

i just threw a avocado seed in my garden about a year ago and there grew a plant out of it

As an Arborist, I would recommend  a Deeper glass and as the root you have there ran out of space, and started curling (Girdling root) which when planted, the roots and tree will grow but the Girdling (spiral Root) will eventually strangle the main root causing the tree to receive less nutrients and water from the soil and eventually decay the tree and kill it.

Just to clarify .No kids were harmed during the making of this video!

Absolutely brilliant! The nicer more educational side of YouTube! Thank you.

hey man, i did mine the easy way, i soaked the seed in warm water(until it cooled) then left it to soak submerged overnight, then in the morning i placed it in a pot plant to the side of a flower that was already growing, it sprouted and when it was just a sprout i transplanted it to a garden where i watered it every so often, when it got established i transferred it again to a large planter made out of a 200 gallon plastic drum cut in half.. it really took off then... its about 2ft tall with a lot of leaves that have started turning purple. (i don't really look after it anymore, i live in NZ so it gets watered when it rains) someone told me the other day that it will never produce fruit because it was an avocado bought from a store and that they breed them to not produce from seed growth only from clones of the parent and that the tree I'm growing will be a male fruitless tree... is this correct? am i wasting my time? i would like some avocados for guac for my nachos.... and this thing is really taking off...

Found this video in mid summer and tried it. I wanted to say I did everything he said and my avocado is now potted in soil and about 6 inches tall. It stopped growing for months at about 4 inches tall until I cut off 2 leaves and the thing grew an additional 2 inches in 2 weeks over a snowy Canadian Christmas. My avocado is in door in a 6 inch diameter self watering plant places beside a heat register but facing out the window. I used potting soil and a bit of miracle grow. I water it often because the soil dries up fast due to the heater. Hope this helps.

I have been starting my seeds upside down this whole time. DOH! Thanks!
