I dropped a seed into my avocado plant and it's actually taking off! What do I do next? It's about 6-7 inches tall, not fluffy, and has some little buds at the top. Just don't know what to do with it next
If it's only 7 inches tall and budding you are going to get yourself a nice fat gram of weed to smoke Is it sitting somewhere getting good light for a short period of time then shade the rest?
Decide if it's worth investing in the time, $$$, and effort to see if that seed turns into a female then to continue to grow it out properly to get a reasonable harvest. If it's not worth a couple hundred dollars+ of investment, just have fun with it and water it along with your avocado plant and enjoy it as a houseplant.
I don't know about fat gram but that would be awesome! It's fairly skinny. It gets decent sun and a decent amount of shade. I have an enclosed patio that it's in and I open the windows to allow some fresh air in.
I'm going more towards the house plant route. I was so surprised to even see it pop up, then stay alive, then survive the cats lol. One of the cats keeps eating the avocado leaves but tried the pot plant and hasn't taken another bite haha
With a large kitchen spoon dig out as much as you can give thought to some serious roots 4-6 inches around the diameter and insert into a prepped pot water well leave in a dim spot for a day to continue in the morning good luck
It's probably taller than 7 inches now that I'm looking at it. It's just super skinny. The little buds are at the top
I can't tell from the pic but it could be male. Imo it's not worth transplanting. There are barely any nodes or leaves
Agreed. I think it would die if I transplanted it lol. I'll try to get some better pics in the morning when there's more sunlight. Thanks for your input
they pollinate the buds so they will grow seeds, so if its a hermie and has both it would produce seeds if it survives long enough I can barely see whats going on at the top of the plant from the light though so i have no idea beyond that they might be sacks
It makes a female plant produce seeds. You can save some pollen if you’re trying to fuck around with some breeding. A good amount of people around here do
Just enjoy that little dude as a houseplant and if you have any friends who grow, stay away from their grow since you might carry pollen from your plant to their plants. I wouldn't spend a dollar on it, just water it and enjoy it as a plant.
