My #avocado has a root, but, that's about it. Nothing growing from the top 🤔 wondering, how long does it take? It's been a good 8-10 wks already

Use three toothpicks to suspend it broad end down over a water-filled glass to cover about an inch of the seed. Put the glass in a warm place out of direct sunlight and replenish water as needed. You should see the roots and stem start to sprout in about two to six weeks.

Step 4: Wait Place your seed in a spot that’s warm and bright, but out of direct sunlight. Change the water once a week or anytime it becomes cloudy. Before the seed starts to sprout, the top of the seed dries out, the outer brown covering falls off, and the pit splits open from top to bottom. Eventually, a small root emerges from the bottom of the pit. The root grows first, and a shoot appears later, rising from the top of the pit. Once the root forms, do not let the water level drop.

Thank you @kelsey92 looks like I'm 1/2 way there 😊with a 4" root 👍

Check out the link what I sent u.

@crabby58 It looks perfect! It takes time. Give it good light and it will grow. Just change the water every couple days to keep it fresh. If you happen to get mold on it, it's totally fine. Just rinse it off with water and wipe it clean. They are pretty tough or I have been lucky 😊

That's good to know😃thank you, so much, looks like it's on its way 👍💚 @Dragon_Warrior
