Growing an avocado seed without toothpicks is simple and fun. Follow these easy steps to get started:
- Prepare the seed: Clean the avocado seed gently, removing any flesh. Let it dry for a few days.
- Plant the seed: Fill a pot with soil and plant the seed, pointed end up, leaving the top exposed.
- Watering: Keep the soil moist but not soggy. Water regularly and ensure good drainage.
- Sunlight: Place the pot in a warm, sunny location. Avocado seeds need plenty of light.
- Patience: Sprouting can take 2-6 weeks. Be patient and watch for growth.
