Latest Non-Tort Project

[T33's Torts]

Following the success of my latest Fuerte Avocado mini tree, I've taken it upon myself to master the art. I found and bought 3 different fruits. 2 new types and another Fuerte. I'm pretty sure we have a Hass and a Queen. Take a look-

I'm going to document my findings here.

So you like avocado?

Awesome! Is that how you get them to germinate?

So you like avocado?

Yep. Well, I eat them occasionally, but the plants are beautiful.

Yep. Then you fill the container with water!

I just posted on your other avocado tree thread. Can't wait to see what you get.
My Lula finally sprouted a root. I think it took months!

I keep forgetting to update
So A and C rotted :-/ but the other one has roots now! A lot! This seed is the same as my other plant (now 35"), but the roots are coming in differently.. There's a lot of thick roots, whereas the other one had one thick root that had a bunch of skinny roots coming from the main one..

Exciting and wow, lotsa roots! Yay! : )

That is way different from the two I have started, as well. Mine started with one thick root.
I am still waiting for my second one to sprout a top stem. I am impatient! The root is growing like crazy.
My first one had a stem pretty shortly after the root started. :huh:

My first one (now a small tree) started the same way!
Only one of the three grew. Just got a little leaf!
