Growing Avocados
I have always been interested in growing things that are different to what everyone else is growing. Avocados seem to be something really different, well I bet you have never grown them have you?
I have done a bit of research and that Avocados can be grown successfully in containers which is great. The downside being that they are supposed to be really difficult to grow. I read on the “Fruit Expert” website that growing them indoors in a large container is another option as they don’t tolerate really cold temperatures.
Here is a short extract from the Fruit Experts website;
Pierce the seed with toothpicks and suspend it, pointed end up, over a glass of water. Roots should start to develop within two to six weeks. Then pot up the plant, leaving the tip just poking out of the soil. However, not all avocado seeds will germinate, so if your seed hasn’t sprouted after six weeks, try again with a fresh seed
The growing process seems to be a complex one but I am up for the challenge. I will keep you posted!
