You go Jessie I love you enthusiasm for learning,you have the patience of a saint😇😇.. I have part grown an avacado in soil it rooted,in soil,but where the trunk was supposed to sprout there were like notty bits,it's hard to explain.. But I have bought another avacado & I am going to give it another go.. I live in England so our weather is totally diffrent,we are having a heat wave in September lol.. I'm going to try again today.. Watching you cut your beautiful avacado plant,I could see you didn't want to do it,if & when I get to that stage I'm going to feel the exact same way.. By the way I love the bonsai tree idea,I have never heard of that idea before.. Thankyou for your funny,positive & educational ideas,I love,absolutely adore your accent..sending love,positivity,happiness& growth your way..✌🏼💜🤘🏻☮🌻🌼✌🏼💜🤘🏻☮🌻🌼..
I dont think people were saying that you cant grow an avocado tree from seed(thats how the original trees were made) but that because avocado is not true to seed it will likely produce fruit that is inferior to the parent. This is also true of apples, most apples are basically only good for cider.
The paper towel /ziploc bag method is way more effective/faster than the toothpick method. I planted mine straight to dirt from the ziploc bag, skipped the water .
I grew a 6 ft tall tree and it was magnificent... But never any fruit. The tree though was incredibly healthy and I shined and cleaned the leaves with a smear of real mayonnaise and those leaves sparkled. Just a smear on a clean cotton cloth!! Spritz with bottles water!!
I’ve been giving my seed a bath every three days and it is starting to have a stem. The roots split in two and are small stubby guys. The thing grows sooooooooo slow. I’ve had plants live full lives before this egg even has a leaf. When you cut that my heart stopped for a sec haha but thank you for advice. I’ll have to get a few drinks in me before I’ll have the courage but it will be done
Thanks for your help and I hope you have generous returns on your investments 🎉.. I'm binge watching your material on 🥑.. I must subscribe if I plan on seeing the whole journey and I'm feeling my first seed and placing it in saran wrap 😊
Cool video. I was told that you will only get fruits if you cut the main stem once- when it has grown some nice leaves (after more or less 3 month). Saludos
Do you keep it in water only or do you end up transferring it into soil? If so, how long do you leave it in water? Also, when you do suggest I cut the stem in half? So far mine has about 4 small leaves ❤
I never would have thought of Caesar dressing in guacamole. I can imagine getting a lot of flack from others if I suggest trying this, because guacamole is a bit sacred in my family to those that eat it. However, a lot of people don't realize Caesar dressing was invented by an Italian chef in Tijuana, Mexico. The fusion potential is there, I'm all the more curious and will need to remember to try that sometime.
I've been growing a jackfruit (actually I have 3 that are surviving at year 2 now), but skinny like your avocado one here. Do you think I should cut it in half like you did with the avocado?
Thank u for your channel & seed growing knowledge and info👍🙏🥑! IMPORTANT question here!!! ..can u or SOMEONE plz answer this?? Ok.. I thought, from, from what u showed in your video, that you had cut the stem of a small avocado plant, and placed it in water next to the uncut plant..and that the cut stem began growing leaves, and you had continued to grow it alongside the uncut plant..but then you said that the "cut stem" had died.. but THEN, you showed pictures of two plants, growing next to each other as u explained and showed that the "cut" plant was doing well and growing beautiful leaves.🤷♀️. So can you please explain what happened with the stem that died, and what plant is in your video, next to the uncut plant? Im so confused! Did the cut plant die or its growing? Im also confused bc BOTH PLANTS in your video have seeds they are growing out of ..so how can one of those even be the cut plant??
When you said that big avocado from the DR my heart stopped bc I was literally thinking "wow they look like the Dominican avocados" lol, thought confirmed. Did you buy that from the US if so how? I would love to get my hands on one as well
Hi i have one avocado plant from seed that once growing a guest dog bit the top off (ie did my pruning for me). I was so mad thinking all those months were wasted but then it grew back! So now its about 2.5 feet high and i never cut it back. Is it to late to cut back? If i do how far down should i go? Thanks
about a month and a half ago i got one of those chonked up green avocados from the health foods store and i hated the **flesh** (why was it sweet????) but i put the seed in a damp paper towel for like a month. it grew a big root and now its outside and the stems growing super fast (ty southern weather) and is just starting to grow leaves. i never thought abt bosai-ing an avocado plant before and its such a good idea!! im gonna try it now once i get more growth. great video :D
Avocados will totally grow fine by themselves, and bear fruit (ie. self pollinate, to some extent). I think what you're referring to is when people recommend pairing a type A avocado with a type B avocado. Essentially, avocados have both male and female flowers on the same plant, but they're largely open at different times... so by planting a type A nearby to a type B avocado, the flowers will be able to more effectively cross pollinate each other as when the type A has female flowers open, the type B will have male flowers open (and vice-versa). In theory, this will give you *more* avocados (assuming the plant can support it). Also, you'll need to make sure the timings are similar for the types of A & B avocados you choose (ie. both blooming at similar times, or have some overlap in their flowering/fruiting season). Edit: I've honestly found that they germinate just as easily in a damp soil mix (like moist coco peat) as they do in a glass of water, and it'll save you having to transplant it later. It may take *marginally* longer to germinate in the coco mix, but you won't suffer any stunting/shock due to transplanting from water to a growing media... ultimately it's about the same time, but the coco is easier IMHO.
Wow, that's an amazing amount of avocado sprouts! Looks beautiful! Btw, you don't _have_ to remove the skin - I've got two newly sprouted ones with the skin still on (I didn't know better at the time!), the skin just cracked and dissolved or flaked, pretty much. YMMV, I guess? And yeah, avocados don't grow true to seed, but they won't be warped, they'll just most likely taste disgusting. But if you're extremely lucky and grow one that tastes good: congratulations, you've now added another edible avocado varietal to the world (there are like 5 I think?), and you'll likely be a multi-millionaire if you play your cards right.
I didn't know there were so little edible avocado variables. But how come you could be millionaire from finding a new one? Is that the case for all the produce that only have an handful of edible variable as well? Does it mean some people actively search for new variables by planting tons of plants because it's like hitting the jackpot if it works out? Maybe it's also a job and some people do that as a living at nurseries but I never thought about it before. Anyway sorry for all the questions 😅
@@rebeccaaliberti5053 haha, no problem. It's not like I'm an expert, just repeating things I've read/heard from more knowledgeable ppl. But yes, there are experimental nurseries searching for new palatable varieties of avocado, as it's a desirable high-priced... fruit? Whatever it is, it sells for comparatively high prices to other things, and there being few varieties (and every plant of each of those being a clone) makes them very susceptible to diseases. New varieties might also be able to be grown in new locations or have other desirable qualities. And the avocado industry is massive and highly profitable - so profitable that drug cartels have tried to take it over in certain regions. And sales of cuttings of established edible avocado varieties are strictly controlled. So finding a new palatable variety would be a huge opportunity for selling it at a high price, and there would be a lot of interested parties.
You cant grow them only in water longterm.. I put mine in some inorganic substrate and fertilized it so it gets the sutrients it needs... also you dont need to grow two of them to yield fruit, but yes they dont grow true to seed.
If they’re this complicated to propagate there’s no way these grow in the wild, right? How did they start to be propagated, what did they come from? Now I’m very curious.
Jesus loves you. He died on the cross for you even though you may have bot even known who He was. While we still did bad things against Him, He loved us and died on the cross in our place as we deserve death because of our sins. The Lord died for you. Whatever you are going through, He can help you through it and all you have to do it invite Him into your heart and He will change you. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.” Revelation 3:20 ““Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”” Matthew 11:28-30
Sooooooo sick!! Awesome ! Congrats on your huge achievement!! 3 years of patience and love, I really hope you have a lot of avocados soon!
thank you SO much. your comment made my day
Can you do a video on grafting avocado trees? It's supposed to give fruit in as little as 3 years.
absolutely
As someone who started growing an avacodo plant a month ago, this video is very helpful.
Avavodo. No context once this gets edited.

The enthusiasm in your voice is just amazing to go with the video. Kudos!
I'm here for the journey
THANK YOU
I can't get over the trail marker trees! I feel like I've seen them on at least 10 hikes and never thought about it
RIGHT!!!?!?!?!?!
I never peeled any of my avocado seeds before I put them in and water and never had issues. Never changed the water either.
that’s amazing! you don’t technically have to peel the peel. but i’ve seen better results and less molding :)
This video was fun, Seeing these avacados BE LOVED
thank you sooooo much
1:21 bout to take a hit, thanks for the reminder!
you can buy a blue gel that is rooting compound. Dip the trimming in it and it might take root.
5:58 NEVER. BACK. DOWN. NEVER GIVE UP.
EXACTLY! Haha thank you soooo much for watching
Your plant propagation journey is so relatable
You go Jessie I love you enthusiasm for learning,you have the patience of a saint😇😇..

I remember watching your avocado vids years ago! Im glad things went well and ill follow your avocado forest journey ahaha
THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY!! i cannot believe it's been so long. but do you like the progress?
@@growithjessie hell yea i do! I might start Growing my own lil guys too!
do u place two or more pits in say ziplock toogether or individually? Do u keep em in dark? and what average temp?? thanks love u
pls someone
Thanks for the super cool video. I'm gonna try a twisty tree with mine too.
The paper towel /ziploc bag method is way more effective/faster than the toothpick method.
I planted mine straight to dirt from the ziploc bag, skipped the water .
i even find planting them right in soil makes them pop up real fast
I grew a 6 ft tall tree and it was magnificent... But never any fruit. The tree though was incredibly healthy and I shined and cleaned the leaves with a smear of real mayonnaise and those leaves sparkled. Just a smear on a clean cotton cloth!! Spritz with bottles water!!
Graft it with another avocado tre that bares fruit,
You have to prune the main branch for it to fruit later on. Don't ask me why
I was inspired by you and grew and avocado myself
I love all of these tropical exotic plants I’m trying to grow some but it is hard starting for the first Time and I live in Alaska
thank you so much!

Will those avocado trees produce tasty fruit?? Since avocados are not true to seed??
Hi jess. Whwre do you leave the seed in the cling film. Somewhere dark and warm? Or light and dry. Do you need to keep wetting it?
i like light and dry :) warm is also good. and yes i always make sure my paper towel stays damp so shpritz lightly every few days 💚

You can extract avocado oil from berries past their prime.
that is so cool!! how do you extract the oil?
Girl, you should try grafting. Then you don't have to wait 13 years, just find a mature tree with some nice buds..
Ever get a polyembrotic avocado seed ? Try grafting ur seed make it a useful tree not just a novel idea of growing an avocado tree/plant/pet ?
you could also graft one of those, then it will have fruit
definitely. i’m looking for one of those too
