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.😊

[@saltycoach3915]

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.

[@FredBTs]

Joe Takacs you would need another avocado nearby for pollination but even then it’s highly unlikely that you would get edible fruit. The only way to do it is graft a known variety on to your root stock. It’s the same with apples, citrus and most other fruit trees.

Yuck all ya guacamole loving bitches. Overextending a resource. Let's get ready for carrot soup. Yuck an emoji. Let's not bring in other details and when you will be able to harvest an avocado. It could be insultive.

[@TheExperimentalHomestead]

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 used your video to show my granddaughter how it's done. We have one started. She visits every summer and I look forward to her coming back next summer and see how's its grown. We live in middle TN and she is in Florida. It may be a challenge in the winter because our windows have a special UV block in them. I've been sending her shots of the progress. In any event, we enjoyed your clip and look forward to seeing more of them!! Thank you.

[@nexus.shadow]

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...

[@micomator]

YOu realise through the video and stages, you never actually mentioned how long it's taking. You just say stuff like 'its been a little while' haha. So frustrating. Does it take 3 days or 6 months? lol

[@mikaelazemaitis675]

I've had my pits in the water about a week and my first pit is just now starting to split. Seems to take weeks, but probably not months

[@powerhitter]

The stage in the final clip is about 4-6months, it really depends on sunlight, it will take about 5-6months to get actual foliage like tangible leaves, but like I said, the most important parts is not letting the root go dry EVER, and lots of sunlight, a well lit window sill is perfect.

[@cmfddavis117]

it takes weeks for each stage

[@dricedt]

I have two. It's been about a month and the roots are a quarter inch at this point

[@vanSlevin]

the actual plant is visible in about after 3 months :)

[@nexxogen]

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.

[@marlena2923]

Hi MrEastCoastMan, I’m from SA. Saw your video about three months ago and it gave me the inspiration to start growing. I have successfully grown 87 avo pits which are now in bags. Your tip about peeling the pits was very valuable. I left one pit with its skin and it’s not even a quarter the way those without. Thanks so much I’m really enjoying my new venture.

[@TheSignstoSee]

HI just wanted to throw in my experience.I started mine(Avacado Seed) in early spring, now it's 4 feet tall and living inside cause its 32 outside. It's like a child you get to watch grow into full potential. I don't know what I will do next year, cut a hole in my ceiling!!!!! I also go 2 yes 2 Mango to germinate from seed from the grocery store. They grow very slow. I love the sense of growing things, especially when they give you food back 1000 fold. Wow did I have a Tomato crop. Then in one night, went from 65 to 28, gone, all gone. Had tons of green cherry's but never would ripen. Well lets see what next season brings..."Grow Your Own, It's Worth all the work"

[@TheSignstoSee]

My Avocado has now sprouted a third new layer of leaves in the house. I'm using full spectrum grow light and also have flowers on my Geraniums.....Nice to have in the middle of winter.

[@RaisingHellAgain]

TheSignstoSee Mine is about 2 1/2 foot tall got a late start, brought it inside placed it in my kitchen window and it's still going good...I know it will never grow Avacado's I just like watching stuff grow :)

[@TheSignstoSee]

I live in the New Mexico Desert. It was about 60 in my back yard and no wind. I took my plants out for a treat of Real Sunshine. I cut the older leaves off my Avocado as the virgin leaves are maturing. I don't know what I will do with it when it gets to big to move. Maybe take it to a friend in California. It would never live here in the winter even if mature.

[@RaisingHellAgain]

TheSignstoSee I had a 6 foot one back in 2008 I grew from seed and pland in the ground, of all things it snowed in Houston TX. and I lost my tree, this is the first one I've grown since then I use to grow them and just give them away. I like to watch things grow..

[@SirShowOff]

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.

[@zarynt1089]

Nice timelapse! Always good to see fellow green thumbs! My method is this. 1.Get a plastic ziplock bag. 2.Wet a paper towel and squeeze it out just enough that it isn't dripping but still very wet. 3. Wash the avocado seed off in warm/cold water. 4.Wrap the seed so that it is mostly covered and put it in the bag. 5. Close the bag and leave it on the counter in the sun if you have it (not necessary). 6. Check periodically for the seed splitting and starting to grow a root. If the brown outer skin starts looking slimy take it out and it should peel or scrape off easily. Once it gets a decent root and you see a shoot or green nub pot it in some kind of topsoil (nub up root down). You can even gently pack soil in the ziplock and let it grow in there until it is a bit bigger. This method is just easier for me because I can throw multiple pits into a bag and start them all at once.

Thank you!! I tried this before, and this is the first time I heard about peeling the stone. Had no idea. I had one before and nothing was happening for over a month. So I just planted it in soil in a pot. and watered it, went away on a holiday and came back to find a small tree starting. It is now about 3 feet and doing well. So now I am starting the second seed, after watching your video, I went back to my seed (that has been in water over a week) peeled the outside and reset it in the water. Looking forward to giving my daughter an avocado plant at Christmas. Thanks for the great tips.

Weeee. Happy I found u. Can't wait to start. What do u do after u get the tree started? Keep in water? When do u plant in dirt? And I'm guessing by ur video that it stays in the house? Very exciting. I eat at least 2-3 a day.

[@Boylefamilyfarm]

After the roots have sprouted and the plant has held up its leaves for about two weeks, it's time to gently put the plant into soil. Keeping the plant inside or putting it outside will depend on the temperature outside where you live. It's a tropical plant so we decided wouldn't put it outside all year round.

if you read up on avocado on wiki it will tell you that yeah they do need a lot of sunlight if you plan to grow it as an indoor plant but the windowsill is ok I guess for this stage of growth. I'd want to eventually put it outside so you can get its yummy fruits.

[@kennycarter5682]

So it can handle cold winters? down to 40 below? doubt it

[@sadochrist8534]

Kenny Carter What made you ask that? Who brought that up apart from yourself? I doubt that it would survive that kind of temperature as it's a hot climate fruiting tree.

[@kennycarter5682]

you said you would want to put it outside eventually. so I thought you meant any kind of environment

I was just talking about this with my grandma. She actually grew one by just planting the seed and didn't follow any special procedure, she's visiting from Mexico though where I think it might be easier to achieve. I'll probably follow this guide though. Thanks for sharing!

[@torb1trick415]

yeah this way is faster cuz the seed wants to split and the soil prevents it by pushing it. the water doesnt hold the seed together

[@510jesus]

@@torb1trick415 a lady in the comments said that she planted one with coffee and soil and it worked really well compared to the video's method. I'll probably try both

[@torb1trick415]

510jesus seeds grow at different times there are many other factors than the growing method like: ripeness, size. temprature, humidity and light. simply saying one way is better is not correct

[@wm005]

My avocado plant is indoors but has grown about 4 foot tall and has about 4 leaves nothing like yours. Was I supposed to snip out the top to keep it from growi g so tall? Can you get avocados for just one plant or do you have to have at peace two plants? Thanks, Wayne

[@nerdsnamedmicah9056]

I watched a different video on growing avocados and they mentioned something a out trimming it back until the roots were established. I think you're probably good now from the sound of that monster you have growing.

[@livingwithlivestockguardians]

That seems far more work than what i did. I sat avocado seeds on top of some soil in pots in spring, They are now 4 ft tall plants. You don't need to remove anything off of it or make anything difficult. Every seed i sat on the soil and watered once a week grew. I use to try to start them how you show and had a lot of them fail. when i quit trying so hard and left it to grow more natural they all sprouted and grew. I currently have 5 trees.

[@artisticagi]

Jennifer H cool I think I will just do that instead lolssssd

[@artisticagi]

Jennifer H did you orient them before sitting them on the soil??

[@khokoOO7]

Will avocados grow on it?

[@armsofdelmar]

Ya well in some parts of the world, mine being Canada, we have cold soil for over 8 months out of the year. We don't have the time or conditions to plant an avocado seed and watch it grow in the few short warm months. And nothing about this is that complicated. I put my seed in a cup of water and it grew on its own, without meddling. How is that complicated?

[@sandjsquad1383]

[@Mistyvalentine]

I watched this video because I just ate an avocado and thought why not, try to get a tree from this seed. The only problem is I am not too sure about what side is up and what side is down. One end comes to a bit of a point, so I think it might be the bottom, the other end looks like the top from his top in the video, but I am still not sure. I will hope for the best! Thank you very much for the info Mr. EastCoastMan. Oh yeah, thanks to some comments on this video I will be saving several more seeds in the hopes of pollination.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

The end with the point is shoot side (top), and the end with a blunt or even depressed side is the root size (bottom). Bottom goes in the water.

[@Mistyvalentine]

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms That is what I thought, but I wasn't sure. That is the way I did it. It has been 3 weeks and all it has done is cracked open so far. Still waiting to see roots.

@@Mistyvalentine yup, it's following the right schedule... I would check the temperature to maybe speed things along. Cheers!

awesome ty ... but when u plant them .... we need to keep them indoors, right? and can u show us a tree you did from scratch with avacados growing on them? thx

[@evelynmiletinova7112]

Long Island Teresa You can keep them outdoors in temperatures above 45°F, but you do have to watch out for pests!

[@DuhKillaMon]

You might want to googlize "do avocado trees grown from seed ever produce fruit?" Or "hass avocado origin". All hass trees are grafts from one, and only one tree. And that one tree was patented because it can't be reproduced from seed. Only grafted. Chances are, no hass, or any other avo seed will ever grow grow hass fruit. Rudolph Hass was just a really, really lucky guy.

[@jonfinklehotwing5144]

"this time im gonna show you..." skips every step and comes back when its done LOL

[@leondan3629]

Beware that the avocado tree grown from seed may not produce fruit of the same cultivar (eg. Hass). That's because the pros probably use special pollination techniques to produce that particular cultivar, but the seed that you saved from eating the market-bought fruit was most likely pollinated quite randomly in nature, and most likely not going to produce the same type of fruit. I suggest not wasting the 7-8 years of time taking care of the tree and find out it does not produce the right fruit. Why take your chances when you can get the exact right kind of tree for about $20? I'm speaking from experience. Grown one from a Hass seed, after about 8 yrs, it produced a purple skin fruit with yellowish and watery flesh. So i had to chop it off. I'm not a pro gardener trying to discourage people from buying. Just trying to help fellow inexperience gardeners.

[@anonymousdoge7439]

It's fun growing your own

[@nightbladeshadowx]

This is very true and applies to many other fruiting trees as well. It takes years and years for an avocado tree to finally produce fruit. Yes it's fun to grow your own but go buy a $20 plant if you actually want it to bear edible fruit in reasonable time. You'll also save a lot of $$ on water (looking at you Californians).

[@FreterP]

Get two seeds, they have "female Parts" and "Male Parts". Put them next to each other and they will be right (Sorry for my Bad English, I'm German)

[@FreterP]

[@gaelenhixson5152]

Hi i just watched your video and wanted to ask you , when do you plant the avacado into soil. I noticed you had not done that even though you have leaves.

[@avocadofruitforest2548]

you can plant it as soon as the stem shoots up..But be careful because its very delicate and might break in half.... The longer you wait the more easily it breaks in half...

From the time you put the pit in the water and to the point of where the leaves are growing, how long did that take/

I actually prepared it the exact same way he did. The leaves only started growing about a month and a half in. But I'm in Malaysia where its pretty humid so I'm not too sure if it would the same results for you. I first planted it in July and it is only about 6 inches tall now. I used an Australian avocado. I tried it with the African (i think) avocado and it wouldnt grow. =/

of course..

[@wallywutsizface6346]

I asked at what point can I put it in soil, I wasn't asking if I could.

[@GuillaumeDrolet]

oh my bad. Sorry I misread that. I imagine you should wait until it's similar to how it is in the last photo it shows, where the roots are grown out (and stronger so that they don't break when you pot it or put it in soil) and it has a few leaves.

[@uncensoredtruth1]

[@GuillaumeDrolet]

don't be such a brat

[@lindsayrathell895]

So I planted one about two months ago and kept changing the cup it was growing in because how long the root was. It has never grown leaves and is about 6inches in the air and 8 inches of root that is stick straight. Will I have trouble planting this? Why do you think its not sprouting leaves?

TheRangeControl i am currently growing an avokado tree, And today is the 29th day for my avocado, and the only thing that’s happend is that it has cracked from the middle, and you can see the root from the inside. But it hasn’t come out if you know. So it takes about 4-6 weeks before you can plant it in a pot

Hello, I’m planning to grow an avocado from seed and came across this video. I have grown avocado from seed before but I just planted the seed direct into garden soil n it would grow. Unfortunately, I couldn’t take it with me when I moved to new place. So hopefully this time around when I grow it, I can be able to have a chance to grow it for long long time...How long did it take for the tree on your video grows that tall? Thank you for sharing your cool method.
