How to Grow an Avocado Tree from Seed: Remove the large pit (seed) from inside an avocado, rinse well, and dry (a wet seed will be slippery!).Use a container that will fit your Avocado Germination Holder (see photos) so that you can suspend the pit over water with the pointy end sticking up. The water should cover about an inch of the seed.Put in a warm place and make sure to maintain the water level.In 2-6 weeks, roots and a stem will sprout from the seed. When the stem is about six inches long, trim it in half.When the stem leafs again, transplant the seedling to a pot with loose, sandy soil. Plant the seedling root down, leaving the top half of the pit sticking out of the soil.Give your plant frequent, light watering and keep it in a sunny place to encourage growth.Pinch back the newest top leaves every time the stems grow another six inches or so to encourage more growth and a fuller plant.In most regions, the avocado plant can stay outside in summer. If you live in a warm climate that does not experience temperatures less than 45 degrees F, you may want to make your avocado tree part of your landscaping by moving the plant outside permanently.
