Nice video! I wonder is it necessary to change the water from the glass everyday, from time to time or to do not change it until it starts to grow? And should I keep it next to the window, on some certain temperature?

Hi brad I pollinated my orchid a few weeks ago and I am waiting on when the pod will be ready.also I can't find any places nearby that do flasking..I live in Calgary and the nearest one I could find was in Edmonton.do you know any places that does it? thanks!!

Brads Greenhouse commented on 10 Sep 2013

Hi Arib, I don't know of any in Calgary, which place are you thinking in Edmonton? The fact that it is in the same province seems close enough to me. Brad

I've used the water method and my avocado stem is about 10inches long now! But yes, it did take months to crack open.

DrunkTankAquaria commented on 28 Jul 2013

Thanks Brad, I'm going to try this too. Do you have it in full sunlight or just ambient light from a nearby window?

Brads Greenhouse commented on 28 Jul 2013

ambient light seems fine. I've fried the leaves on mine a while back from to much light.

Brads Greenhouse commented on 27 Jul 2013

Cool, my wife sprouted one with the water method as well. Hers is about 10" tall too!

Victor Rivas Gutierrez commented on 26 Jul 2013

Hi Any water will do but rainwater will be best, the fluoride does not seem to affect the plants in my area. It also does not matter if it's hard or soft water either. If you add a bit of plant feed to the water it helps. you do not need to change the water just keep topping it up if you use the cocktail stick method, don't let the bulb / seed dry out at all, which is why the styrofoam / polysterene ring works well. I have transplanted the seed and root once well formed straight into wet soil

joseph brendel commented on 08 Sep 2013

the trees are both sexes and can turn from male to female, or female to male. so it is best to have a few, then nature will take care of the rest. if they are all female t start one or more may just change to fix the problem.your trees won't be fruiting for a few years to come like 5 to 7 depending on the breed. grafts are better, they are at the fruit age allready. so to grow them from seed is just fun, then many years later you (may) get fruit. hope this helped if you allready did not know

Kevin McNally commented on 27 Jul 2012

Am no expert, just doing my first one now, but i grown lots of things from seeds, i would imagine its done the seed now harm seeing as they have super tough shells and skin, the reason you soak them in water is the seed wont start germinating till the water gets inside which with a shell like that takes AAAGES... so my bets are its fine, i mean the inside of a avacado is wet remember!

KSATica commented on 16 May 2013

Do you have to change the water and also do you have to buy it at stores the water or you can get it at any place like let's say at your own drinking faucet. But doesn't the flouride effect the plant. Does it matter how many must you change for your advocado seed. How long will it grow and does it matter at any location. :0 Can someone offer any advice.

Natasha Suttle commented on 20 Aug 2013

You don't have to do that. I got the seed put them in a paper towel damped the paper towel with water then place it in a zip lock small bag left air so it can vent. Checked it in about 4 weeks and it sprouted. Then I placed it in separate pots with soil and now I have my plants! Learned that in elementary school science.... Good Luck!

Kevin McNally commented on 27 Jul 2012

I didnt fancy this method so i thought i would do it naturally...just stuck mine in a pot about 3 times as wide as the seed with soil with the top 1/2 uncovered, kept it moist and left it... i was going to give up on it after a few months (like he mentions) but this week i can see cracks coming up either side!

lbreeze21 commented on 03 Nov 2012

My pit has one very long root, and has for a while, however, nothing is growing from the top. How long does it typically take for it to sprout once the root has grown long? I am thinking about transplanting it into potting soil and see if I have better luck. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

WiteBeam1 commented on 21 Jan 2013

To produce fruit with these trees, you must graft them. In nature they pollinate through roots from multiple trees touching and connecting. The way we graft is cut the stem off of two trees and connect those stems to opposite tree bases. Just look up grafting for more information.

Susan Lott commented on 15 Sep 2013

I've had mine going since late June/early July. It cracked completely from bottom to top. I used the toothpicks to resecure it. Still no action and the water gets very cloudy quickly. Should I trash this one and start over?? Re-scrape the skin off bottom?? Not sure. Help!

pneumike commented on 06 Apr 2013

another way to sprout is to make a donut shape out of styro foam that the seed fits into snugly, but smaller than diameter of water container. this avoids the seed drying out, as it floats on the water instead of suspended above it, as water level drops, so does the seed.

congrats on almost 1 million views! I wanna try this, I eat about 3 avocados a week and saved the seeds from the tastiest ones. I have 9 seeds to work with, I think maybe I should just donate them to a farm if they are not gonna make fruit I dont know.

Allotar commented on 13 Jun 2013

So i did all this, they grew roots, and i planted about six of them, but then i heard that in order for your tree to have fruits, you need one "male" and one "female" plant. Is that true? And if it is, how can you tell which is which? Thanks :)

ClaxNVEST commented on 02 Jul 2013

There are both Monoecious and Dioecious plants. In Monoecious (one-house) plants, and individual produces both male and female flowers. While in Dioecious (two-house) plants, individuals normally produce only male or female flowers.

Huguette Filion commented on 16 Jul 2013

I just do that very simple,take a large glass pot ,put bit of soil, a bit water,just to create humidity,put your avocado seed on top. close the pot.leave them there ,dont bother....they will germinate....be sure of that.

DoranthePCgamer commented on 08 Aug 2013

I'm trying to grow an avocado but I'm the only one in my house that thinks it's alive, despite the fact that it cracked open a week or two ago. anyone know how long it takes the root to grow to a noticeable length?
