She is beautiful, did you plant the seed totally under the soil?

#### Bret replied on 2025-09-27

After she rooted for a while in some water, yeah. I figured it would probably add a bit of nutrients? 🤷🏻

### Faye commented on 2025-09-27

Great, I’m rooting one now. Hoping for great success!

#### Bret replied on 2025-09-27

I hope she does well! I had mine in a wet paper towel in a Ziploc for probably....two and a half months. Then let her grow some more roots suspended over water for about another month

#### Faye replied on 2025-09-27

I did the paper towel thing with another one she started growing well until I set her outside. Starting over now.

This is the biggest and healthiest home grown avocado plant I’ve seen. Cool! 🥑

#### Bret replied on 2025-09-27

Yeah, I honestly am not sure what's going on haha I'm guessing she REALLY loves that tall skinny glass thing I have her in and the light she's under? 🤷🏻

#### Sunny replied on 2025-09-27

I’m stumped. Does it have drainage?

### Bret commented on 2025-09-27

No, I just put about ....six to eight inches of rocks in the bottom and then the dirt over top
