  • Growing Avocado Trees from Seed - 21 Month Update
    In this video, I'll provide an update on my Avocado Saplings that I've grown from seed that are now just about 21 months old as I started them on 1/13/20.
    A lot has happened since the last update - overwintering them indoors, bringing them outside in spring, and then repotting them once again a few months ago.
    I have 6 plants growing in this series - 2 from the toothpick and water method, and 4 started from the direct sowing into soil method. I'll keep you updated on their progress until they perish or produce (fingers crossed).
    Tips for growing avocado trees:
    Avocado trees really don't prefer full sun all day and especially not 100 degree temperatures so It's been tough planning where he should stay during the days - preferably a partial sun/shady area.
    Avocado trees do enjoy slightly acidic soil that is well draining. A PH of 6.0 - 6.5 is ideal and having sandy soil conditions also helps. They also are heavy nitrogen feeders so a monthly feeding should be used after they reach a few feet tall.
    Your soil should consist of a mixture of Limestone, crushed granite and sandy loam. Make sure it is well-draining to prevent root rot.
    I hope you will enjoy this new video and the series.

    Please keep up the great videos! Your very unique! Every time I search for a plant growing video I always find tutorials. I want videos like this! I usually never find videos where people show the plants growing every single month or week or day. I love videos like this! Videos where it feels like I’m actually there growing the plant with you!

    I have 3 avocado seeds
    That have sprouted
    The 1st 1s about 2 months old.
    The second is 1 and a half months, but it already has 4 leaves and two little ones
    And the 3rd one is 3 weeks maybe, but its developing very slow, the root isn't even an inch long and no crack on the. But the second one is legendary, because it actually splitted in half, but immediately started growing, this was about a month ago, and already 6 leaves? That's impressive and in moderate climate.

    Also, I wonder if this is why one of my mangoes has brown leaves like that… if it’s because it’s gotten burnt from too much sun. Looks similar to your avocados. It’s like every baby leaf that tries to come out gets brown. I’ll try to move it to indirect sun. Is that pipe looking thing you have in with the avocados there to help them stand upright?

    • @RobBackyardGardenerr
      @RobBackyardGardenerr  3 года назад

      It could be due to either not enough water or a salt accumulation in the soil... maybe try flushing out the soil and possibly adding a bit of nitrogen fertilizer.

    Hi Rob, I planted 3 Avocado seeds in a 10 Gallon planter last spring hoping at least one would sprout. Well, to my surprise all 3 sprouted. They are each about 6 Inches tall now. Should I let them grow to see which one does best or take my best guess and pull out 2 of them? Been trying to grow one for a few years now and this is the first year they have made it this long. Thanks!

    I have a question. My avocado seed ended up growing 2 stems. 1 is significantly bigger than the other. They seem to alternate growing. The taller will grow several inches and sets of leaves. Then the smaller will. Should I just cut the smaller one off so the taller tree can focus growing or let them both grow? Or can they be separated?

    Do the second one with that 50 25 25 mix.
    I got one for you don't use play sand use desert sand why play sand is way smaller and can technically become cement for your plants roots and will stunt them.
    Ps im in college for this and have seen many play sand mistakes do to lack of research and to many popular gardeners not knowing what it does telling lots of people its ok to use when its really not.

      They don't BUT you could have a very edible variety as well. Worst case you could graft a branch from a know variety and use the base as root stock - yielding a crop in as little as a few years.
