When or how often should you repot an avocado tree planted from seed? I would say 2 times first year, after that 1 time a year, in early spring is a great way to care for it. How do you repot a huge indoor avocado tree? I take on this task in this video. I show you what soil I use, how to get good drainage, and how to keep the roots healthy. It is important to follow these steps, to not get root rot in your avocado.
Check out the next video of this tree, it got so much bigger in just 4 months :)

Came for the avocado tree, got distracted by the big strong Nordic man 🥲💀💕
Oops 😅
the "aw shit its heavy" ended me LOL
Hah, it was heavier than expected 😅
That white cat playing with the little bits of soil😂
Great video, thank you for sharing. Nice to see such a beautiful tree only after about 5 years.
Ok I have a potted avocado just like yours and has to be repotted. I'm glad I watched your video. It was great.
Planted my 1st seed today! Can't wait till it's big and beautiful like yours. Thanks for sharing your progress! 😁
Thank you so much! I wish you the best of luck. 😊
Thank you for the informative video. Wonderful progress - especially from your own seed! :)
Love the kitties too!
Thank you 😊.
What a thriving beautiful avocado tree! In my mind growing such a specimen indoors is quite a good accomplishment. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Im glad you like it 😊
Beautiful. I just started growing 2 , as bonsai. I love the way you can manipulate their form. I have 10 seeds in pots , and can’t wait for them to spring up.
how are they now? arw they growing fruits?
That’s a big boy! Wow! Love the video.
Hugs from Sweden!
Thank you :). Yeah, he is getting kinda big. I wonder if he will reach the ceiling soon :D
It looks so beautiful 😍 great job 👏👏👏
I really appreciate you!! Thank you 🙏 btw… you’re really funny 😆 I laughed so much!! I love your love for plants 🪴 🌱 your 🐈 🐈⬛ are so adorably beautiful too!!!
Thank you for the nice words! Im glad I can spread the plant love, and put a smile on your face at the same time 😊
I love your video,❤️❤️❤️I just bought my Granddughter a kitten just like your Siamese cat… they are beautiful
Great job on the replanting of your tree… I will definitely watch again.. you made it so much fun to watch…😂😂thank you
Thank you :). I am glad you likes it. My cat is a ragdoll, they can have similar colors tho :).
I will have another video out soon avout this tree, it has grown a lot since I made this. So keep an eye out for it 😊
7:30ish “the big lift” 🎶 😂🤣
Thank you for this in-depth video; I learned a lot!
🤣. No problem, thanks for watching!
I was trying to find what soil i needed for my 1 year old indoor avocado and i found you, great upload thanks buddy. 🙂🇬🇧
No problem! Good luck with the repot, and thank you for watching 😊.
Great video! I'm growing an avocado tree that is about a year and 4 months now, I cut it quite short recently and starting to see some new growth, which is good! Also some bark forming on the bottom
how are they now? arw they growing fruits?
Cool thanks for sharing! I just put my avocado tree in soil hopefully mine gets as big as yours. Great job!
Thanks for watching. It’s perfect timing for that now, good luck with your tree 👍😊
WOW that avocado tree is AMAZING! My avodaco plant is just 6 months old and already like 70 cm... I wonder if it's gonna also become as big as yours! Thank you for the great content and wish you a lovely and happy year and life!
Thank you :). I think you got a big one there! I have noticed some avocados grow much faster and bigger then others from the start, keep growing it and it probably will be real big one in the future. I am glad you like the content, and I wish you (and your plants!) a happy life too :).
Wow! Love your video! So nice and informal. Hope my baby avocado plant can grow as big and nice as yours one day 😊
Thank you! And good luck with your avocado 😊
good thing i watched your video. i was thinking about getting an absolutely huge pot to grown a decent size tree when i start growing my avacado tree. it was like 16 by 16 but now i see your tree is fairly large despite the smaller pot than the one i wanted to buy.
Glad I could help :). It is not always good to have too big pot from the start of a young tree. You need very good drainage if the roots are not covering the whole pot, or else water may sit for too long in the soil, and cause rot and other bad stuff. Good luck with your tree! 😊
This was very helpful and entertaining ty. I just got a very tall one from my relatives who are moving
Thank you :). Good luck with your tree
Браво , много добре си се справил!!!
Nice cats.
thanks :)
Very good job man!!! It looks so healthy
Thank you! Check out the next video in the series also, it has grown since this one :)
I love avocado & I started my avocado plant last year & it's tall 4ft now for a couple of months , so I cut the upper to mave a branch like yours ...thank fof the tips God bless❣
Avocados are the best! Good luck with yours, and thank you for watching! 😊
I grow avocados to (southern California), if I was living in a northern area I would probably do the same and grow it in doors, take it outside during the summer. Glad to see it can be done. Thanks for sharing.
Do you get any fruit? :) My dream would be to have a fruit bearing Avocado tree some day.
@@NordicPlantLover growing from seed will fruit one day but could take a long time. Some people get fruit in 5 years and some it takes 20 years and all outside. You are indoors so I'm not sure if it will fruit. If you can find someone who has a avocado that has already fruited , ask to get a cutting and graft it on to your avocado. Good luck.
@@AvocadoTalk I see. Thank you, and good luck to you too :)
Great video ,very beautiful wow 🌳
Thank you 😊
Looks great !
Thanks!
Beatiful plant!
Rarely does one see the whole journey of younger avocados plants which were potted from seed. I think its really motivating and insightful for newer growers in the space, so thank you.
How much do you actually prune, beside the one cut that you mentioned? Eagerly waiting for the summer update.
Thank you! I agree, it's fun to see how they develop over time :) I will try to document more frequently so it's easier to follow now that I have started this channel.
I did not prune this tree much at all, I remember I did an early cut to get the dual branch going when the tree was very young. And that major cut on the main stem, nothing else yet. But I have to start to prune it sooner or later I guess, because its about to hit the ceiling soon haha :D And I want it to get more full bushy look rather then tall and thin.
@@NordicPlantLover , pruning for succes ;-) you will also be able to give light where it will need for future flowerings and fruits to growning healthy , it will even bloom quicklyer than if you dont , prune it every year back what whas growing the seson before or keep one eye or two depending how you want to keep in shape you like , i see very small trees given lots of avocado in the growing tents ading light on dark winterdays , even papayas are cultivate with good results , the nederlands are the nr 1 for me if it comes to knowledg growing warm vegetables in kold climate , so , wish you al the best with you avocado tree , nice and welldone , it is huge for the space it grows in to , ;-)
Thanks for this, it’s good information for me :). I am at the stage when I nerd to start thinking about what shape I want for it
@@NordicPlantLover think we never ending to be better every time , even from the less experitented i learn so much , i consider my self always as a beginner 😜😁; many thanks for your shares , it is nice to share always , even we think no one would be interested , there is always one ho care and learn from it ;-) enjoy , carl
I am going to make a similar video to this to repot my avocados! I have two avos that are a year younger than yours, but doing so well, (one of them at least) and I think I might make a video of repotting as well.
Nice! I’m totally gonna watch it :).
Interesting shape. Feels like a spiral staircase. Quite good looking
Thank you. Now that I look at the video again I realize that it has grown a lot since then. I might post an update soon :)
I'm surprised with an avocado tree indoors 😳
Beautiful avocado tree🥰😍 but
I got distracted when I saw your beautiful cat 🐈😁😊
Thank you. The cats are always around when I repot stuff :D They wanna help haha
😄🥰
Wow it’s pretty good looking plants 🪴,my is only 6 month old.Congratulations 👍👍👍👍👍☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
Thank you. And good luck with your plant :)
Nice 🥑 🌳
Thank you 🙏
Can wait to grow my own
Thanks for your video. I will try to do the same.
No problem! Thank you for watching 😊
Those "some kind of clay balls" are actually Lava rocks. Nice Avocado tree. One of my trees is about the same size after planting the seed 18 months ago. But that's because it's growing in the tropics. You have done extrememly well growing it indoors.
Thats cool, I didn’t know it was made of lava rocks. Woah, thats some crazy growth. Is it in a pot or planted straight in the ground?
Informative and and funny. “Oh shit”. 😂
Thank you 🤩
it beautiful just let know as big bag with handle with hold at bottom so be easy to lift out thank it very beautiful
Thank you 😊
I’m kinda in love after watching this video
With the avocado tree? 😊
In Sweden we dont say ”leka balls” 😂. Great stuff. Might have to plant one.
Haha 😂. You should! 😊
Nice
mulch is very important to them due to the wide shallow root system.
Maybe you could get a grafted variety and produce some fruit! Great job Henrik!!🙏
That would be cool 😊
I like your cat! :)
They love when im planting stuff 😅.
Beautiful plant Sir
Thank you Sir! :)
I have an 8yr old seedling 6 feet tall , still no avocados ,, it’s a waiting game for sure !!! , good luck ,
Good job keeping it alive, we will continue waiting. Good luck to you too! 😊
Come back in 7 years and show off your avacadoes. It may take that long for the tree to bear fruits since you are growing it from seed. Meanwhile you are enjoying it as it grows. You may need to tell us what your plans are for the next growing season when the height of your tree reaches the ceiling height. I guess you can always trim it down. Thanks for sharing.
I will, stay patient! Thank you for watching 😊.
Good video 😊👍
Thank you :)
It is super 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I wonder if anyone ever gets avocados from a tree grown inside. Beautiful tree! ❤️
It is the golden question 😊. I never heard of it yet. Thank you!
If he polinates them, it will
It probably could but they take over 10 years to get to the fruit bearing stage.
My grandpa did!!! He had an avocado tree. Avocados wasnt sold here in Sweden when he did it, but he worked at volvo and he got the opportunity to travel to brazil and work there for a year. He took tree avocado seeds home with him. He planted them and people here say its impossible to grow tropical fruits here because of how dark it gets in the winter, but he did it anyways.
He didnt expect them to get so old, but all of the trees survived in their pots for five years, then one of them died in the winter. But two of them survived and eventually they had flowers and then fruits!!! The trees only had three avocados that ripened, but still!!!! He got fruit after 14 years ahhaha.
I have a 7 year old avocado tree, and one 2 year old. That 7 desperatly needs to be repotted, but i am so scared to do it because im afraid its gonna die. Its literally like a pet or even a child to me😭😭😭
Thanks for sharing your story! This is very valuable information for me 🤩.
Don’t be afraid to repot, nothing bad has ever happened to my avocados after repotting 😊. Also, dont be afraid to remove some roots if it has lots of roots circeling the bottom om the pot.
Love your avocado!
I was wondering how you keep it happy over winter, since it must get quite dark in Scandinavia. Do you also use grow lights for the big boy?
It usually is not very happy at all during the winter. I try to place it as close to a window as I can. But it will drop a lot of leafs, and it's important not to overwater it.
I don't use any grow light on this one, so far it's been working well. Also it's fun to see in the spring/summer how much new leafs that starts to grow :).
@Candi No, not yet. It can take over 10 years, and maybe it never will.
Wow!
Super
So big!
There’s a RUclipsr “MJ aquascaping” that sounds like you and has the same unit. Imagine you were in the same block of apartment 😂
Ah, I will check that out! :)
Incredible! How often do you water your tree, and is there a drainage in your pot? Also, when do you need to repot the tree?
Thank you :). I water 2-3 times a week, it needs more during the summer. Yes, It is important with drainage. I hope I dont have to repot for a while now, its too big :D. I will add more fertilizer, maybe I can wait 2-3 years before I have to repot again.
A nice tree you have there!
Two questions: How often do you water the plant? What kind of fertiliser do you use?
Thank you 😊.
I water maybe 2-3 times a week, and it needs a lot more during the summer.
I use well pre-fertilized planting soil, then i add long lasting nutrient sticks for ”green plants” like every 3 months
if i whas you i would prune it short as same as we prune citrus and most fruittrees as well , so it is also more atempt to produce flowerings and be able to fruit with good wintertime light adings to optain the needed day light hours to stay in good winter conditions , indore i use also one humidifier to each of my diferent planting corners or do i have to say jungles with diferent biotopes , i trie everything i can , by now my space have no places left over so i have to prune this fruit trees to fit well , and by experiences , i also have opserve that grownth will be even more health and fiel up the space back that i pruned very quickly ,and fruting is much intensif and gives bigger and much tasty fruits , but you have grown nice avocado tree , succes with it , hope you get fruit once ;-) , .....Carl > Belgium
The thing about using normal rocks on the bottom of a pot when attempting to avoid root rot is that the water just sits at the bottom beneath the soil and the roots will simply grow down towards the water until they are all sitting in water anyways which totally defeats the purpose of the whole process. This guy used clay though which absorbs tons of water, which means water likely doesn't sit for long on the bottom but rather is transferred back into the soil quicker and the roots won't grow downwards as much.
Good explanation 😊
I think if you put a mulch layer on top of those leaves they will start to decompose faster and those feeder roots on the surface will eat up the nutrients
Thank you. Thats smart :)
Your awesome 😂
Thanks 🤩
Sweet 😎
Thanks
Awasomee
You can try grafting on one branch . It will fruit in that pot too.
That would be awesome. But I don't think there is a market for fruiting avocado trees here in Sweden because of the cold weather no one can keep them outdoors.
Nice video, very helpful! I was wondering, is it normal for avocado trees to lose leaves often ? I have two 5-7 years old trees and their leaves are looking healthy but there’s always a couple on the floor, all dried up.
Thank you!
Yes, it is normal 😊. Avocado trees loose their old leaves from previous seasons. Out in the wild, the forest floor is filled with old leaves, which acts like mulch and helps keep the and roots moist.
Most garden centers or aquariums in the US have gravel which is great for drainage
Nice! :)
Great production. We see that the avocado tree is near to the heater. Can you please tell me do you get any problem or see the tree sensitive to the heat from the heater ? Merci !
Thank you :). Yes, it can be a problem, the avocado easily gets dry if it is next to it. Or if it is in a window when the hot air rises from the heater. But I really don't have a choice ;/. Just make sure it never completely dries out, it helps.
@@NordicPlantLover Many thanks! I see your point and the amount of effort you put in to keep the avocado tree indoor bravo. Please take good care!
I have a huge indoor avocado tree also. I repotted about 3 days ago and its really droopy was wondering how long it will take to recover. Or if I should trim some..
It can get a little transplant shock after repot. Best is to keep it out of the sun and heat right after a repot. But it should recover with time. Be careful not to overwater it during this time, because it might look thirsty, but instead you might drench it :).
how are they now? arw they growing fruits?
Thank you for your video! How often do you water this plant?
I’m glad you liked it :).
I water maybe 2-3 times a week, it needs much more water during the summer. Avocados like moist soil, they should never dry out completely.
@@NordicPlantLover thank you once again
hello friend, good job with your plants
I also grow avocados, but a variety more resistant to cold, I grow Mexico in the north of Spain, this variety resists, up to -8 degrees, that makes it possible that they can be grown outdoors in many places, where other avocados would fail
where are you?? what minimum do you have?
a greeting
Hello, and thank you :). That is nice! The temperature here in sweden where I live can get to like -20 when it’s coldest 🥶.
@@NordicPlantLover how cool, :)
a wonderful crop that you could have next to the window, it would be the tropical pineapple, they take up little space, and in 2 years they already give fruit
-Now I'm also growing another very curious tree called the Japanese raisin tree, which has a very curious and tasty fruit, and supports about -20 degrees, maybe you could have it there, outdoors :)
You would have to prune the tree if you don't want it to keep growing vertically and maybe promote growth to the sides and and get a bushy avocado.
All good. You only missing a little be of Iron Tone on ur plant to make it happy. She needs some
Thank you for the tip! I will look into it :)
Very nice tree. I've watched the entire video but i don't think you mentionned anything about the exposition... Is it near a south facing window ?
Thank you :). This window is facing East'ish. It has morning sun until like 11 am or something :). It has gotten a little burnt previously when i had it in more sun and a hotter spot.
@@NordicPlantLover Thanks for the answer. I too have east facing windows. I'll try growing an avocado tree too, hopefully it'll get as beautiful as yours.
Hi, I just reported my small avocado tree for the first time, should I water it right away or wait couple of days for damaged roots to heal first?
I always water right away when i repot avocados. It’s not good if they have dry soil :). Sorry for the late answer 😅
which part of Sweden were you living in?
Great Tree ! I have a couple of questions. What type of soil have you been growing it in? and do you keep it in the house this whole time ? thanks !
I use soil with added fertilizer, and its good if it has some drainage mixed in. The ones i buy already have that premixed, but you can use coconut husk or perlite if it does not have it :).
I keep it indoors now last 2 years. It's too big to move now. When it was smaller i had it outside a few months during the summer.
@@NordicPlantLover are you going to try the same thing with the mango tree?
They need a repot soon, I will research what soil is best for them, cause Im not sure they are doing so good this winter.
@@NordicPlantLover i heard that they really like sand a lot, i tried adding 50 percent sand and some perlite and my mango trees in pots are very healthy
but avocado trees are the same so what you used on your avocado tree should work the same with the mango tree
Har du märkt någon skillnad på vanlig jord o medelhavsjord?
Jag tycker inte jorden blir lika soggig med medelhavsjord, det bildas inte lika mycket fungus o sånt på ytan heller om man jämför. Jag tror det minskar risken för root rot då, som avokados råkar ut för relativt lätt. Jag märker ingen skillnad näringsmässigt mot vanlig blomjord heller, så testa att köra med medelhavs om du är sugen :). Bra att du frågade, jag hade nästan glömt bort att jag hade det i min, och inte reflekterat över fördelarna riktigt 😄.
Can you get it to sprout fruits? Really cool
No, not yet. Thanks! :)
Question - I have my 3 seedlings. Planted them this summer. They are around 20 cm tall. Is it okay to repot them in spring? I wish my dudes grow up this big. ♥ Also, love the kitties! ♥
In Serbia I also call them leca and buy them in IKEA :D
Hello. It depends how big pot they have now, and how fast they grow. If planted in a small pot, I would repot them when they have maybe 3-4 set of leaves this year, and another time in spring :). I find that repotting often can make them grow bigger faster, BUT, only if they have outgrowed the previous pot, which you see on the roots (root bound). Thank you for watching, and good luck with the avocado dudes! 😎
@@NordicPlantLover tnx for the advice.
Hello I have grown an avacado tree from a pit. He is now 4 years old. He is one stem and many leaves but no branches yet. He has many small leaves at the bottom of the tree. Should I cut those off to encourage growth?
Hello. Good job! :) It's hard to say why he has not branched yet, it might be due to lack of sunlight, or nutrients in the soil maybe (repot time?). But I would not cut off leafs if they are not going bad. The tree will drop bad leafs by itself, and it's a normal process each year.
Thank you so much! I thought about pruning him but makes me sad to trim him! He is very healthy and beautiful. Thank you for your response and have a good evening,friend!
I have grown 3 avocado plants indoor, a little shorter than yours and 2 more growing in nursery. I dont have any space outside and these plants are taking all the space 😅😅
Haha yeah, they grow fast to big little trees :). But still it is so temting to start more when you get a seed from an avocado 🥑 🤓
Hmm I didnt know that the leaf mulch method I used to cover the top soil in an avocado trees plant pot is an actual thing people do , I was actually trying to give the plant nutrients knowing that the leaves would decompose.
Smart move :). Its good for several things, adding nutrients is one thing.
What’s the purpose of repoting? Will not start to produce flowered if you keep it there?
All plants need new soil sooner or later, because the nutrients are gone :). And if you put in a bigger pot, the plant grows better.
omg how did yours grow so quickly? mine is 3.5 years old and is only about 3-4 feet tall
This guy has been very strong from the start. I have noticed the growing speed can differ quite much from seed to seed. And also, some avocados love as much sun as possible, while others get too hot/burnt.
@@NordicPlantLover thanks for the reply ! Did you prune yours at all? I haven’t repotted mine in 2 years and I’m about to do it, but my pot is the same size as yours and it hasn’t grown for months now !
I did an early prune to get the dual branch going when the tree was very young. And one major cut on the main stem, when i had to move the tree to a new appartment like 2 years ago, nothing else yet.
What kind of soil do you use? Maybe it's out of nutrient, because it should not stop growing like that if it has a big pot, and nutrients in the soil. Unless its placed with very low light maybe.
hi! have you ever pruned this avocado tree or did you just let it grow?
Hi, i have pruned it on the main stem 2 times in 5 years, but mostly let it grow :)
Great, I’m looking forward to seeing updates on all of your plants! Also I was wondering if you get gnats or thrips infestation? It could be an idea for a next video.
@@livioguillaume2560 Updates will come during the summer when they have grown a little more :). I have had problems with spider mites in the past, they killed my lemons and mango plants in another apartment :(, but not anything else. Right now i have a lot of "water flies", but they are harmless, just a little annoying.
Thank you for Sharing it
Thank you for watching :)
Can you plant an avokado plant in a terracotta pot or will that be too dry?
You can. But it will dry out faster, so you just have to water it more regular. I have some of my smaller in terractottas :)
@@NordicPlantLover Thank you for the answer! I am gonna plant mine in a terracotta pot now :D
Im always scared that if I putt it out by the trunk, I will break it from the roots
Yeah, it might if it is a smaller plant, and dont have enough roots to fill the pot yet. But you can often feel if the pull is on the trunk vs roots, or if its the whole pot soil that is stuck :).
Does it give u fruit at this age and inside
No, not yet. I think it will take a few more years.
How many avocados has it produced?
None so far 😅
When does it grow avocados?
Don’t know, I am still waiting 😊
Skal du la den forsette å vokse? 😅 . Jeg har en som er 1,5 år gammelt nå og tenker om å klippe toppen.
Ja, den får växa :)
Nice can it produce fruits
Thank you. No fruits yet. And maybe it never will, we will see
Hello please do you rotate your plant?
Hello. Yes, I do that, cause the leaves and branches tend to lean to the window :). Maybe every 1-2 months
Is this avocado have flover and making fruits??
No, nothing yet 😀
Did u pruned it when it was small?!
Yes, one time when it was very small. But I don’t think it’s a good move any more, I wouldnt do it again if Im not experimenting with shapes like bonsai and stuff.
@@NordicPlantLover thanks that was really helpful 👍🏼
