STEP 1

Some avocado pits are somewhat elongated, while others are formed practically like impeccable circles – yet all avocado pits have a "base" (from where the roots will develop), and a "best" (from which the grow will develop). The marginally pointier end is the best, and the level end is the base. Keeping in mind the end goal to get your pit to grow, you should put the base root end in water, so it's vital to make sense of which end is the "best" and which is the "base" before you run penetrating it with toothpicks.

sprouting can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks, but in my experience, it usually takes at least 8 weeks to get a sprout, so be patient. Here is the process you will witness:

  1. The top of the avocado pit will dry out and form a crack, and the outer brown seed skin will slough off.

  2. The crack will extend all the way to the bottom of the avocado pit, and through the crack at the bottom, a tiny taproot will begin to emerge.
