소개

The next time you eat an avocado or use one in a recipe, save the stone or pit. Planting your own avocado tree is fun and quite easy.

  1. How To Grow An Avocado Tree, Clean the pit: 1 단계, 이미지 1/1

    • After removing carefully the pit from the avocado wash it gently with warm water to remove all the flesh.

    • Be careful not to remove the brown skin on the pit – that is the seed cover.

    • Avoid using soap, just use warm water and your hands.

  2. How To Grow An Avocado Tree, Locate which end is "up" and which is "down": 2 단계, 이미지 1/1

    • All avocado pits have a ‘bottom’ (from where the roots will grow), and a ‘top’ (from which the sprout will grow). The slightly pointier end is the top, and the flat end is the bottom.

  4. How To Grow An Avocado Tree, Insert the toothpicks: 3 단계, 이미지 1/2 How To Grow An Avocado Tree, Insert the toothpicks: 3 단계, 이미지 2/2

    • Holding the pit "narrow" (pointed) side up, stick three toothpicks into the middle section at even intervals, just enough to give a firm hold. This will allow you to balance the pit on the inside of a cup, without completely inserting it into the cup.

    • The pit should sit in about 1 inch (2-3 cm) of water, so keep this in mind when inserting your toothpicks.

    • Don't insert the toothpicks to deep into the pit, this could damage it and it wouldn't grow anymore.

    • The shown avocado pit on the pictures hasn't the perfect shape with a pointier side.

    • Add water to a small, slender glass until it reaches the top rim.

    • Your glass's opening should be wide enough to accommodate the full width of the avocado pit easily; however, make sure that it is not too wide, otherwise the toothpicks will not be able to reach and the pit will fall in.
