The seeds of the avocado can be grown, and it is often propagated by seeding.The seeds are usually harvested when the skin turns yellow, cut off with the stalks, and stacked indoors for 7-8 days so that the surface softens and the seeds are removed.After taking out, it needs to be cleaned and dried in the shade, and then preserved with sand.
1. Sowing time: Avocados are native to the tropics. They are usually sown as they are picked in their producing areas, but sown in spring in other places.This plant likes warm climate and is more afraid of high temperature, so it can not be planted in summer.And its cold tolerance is relatively poor, low temperature will inhibit its growth, so do not sow in winter.
2. Germination in advance: The seeds of avocado need to be germinated in advance before planting.Germination method is relatively simple, the toothpick from the four directions into the seeds, into the glass bottle above, to prevent it from falling.Add the right amount of water to the bottle, so that one third of the fruit core can soak in the water.Change the water once a day, and it will sprout soon.
3. Sowing seeds: For ground planting of avocados, you need to plant them in a deep, loose and fertile place. For potted plants, you need to find a higher pot, spread gravel at the bottom, and then fill it with sandy loam. Put the seeds on the surface and cover them with potting soil. The top should be exposed by one third.It will continue to grow when it is well watered.
4. Subsequent maintenance: After the avocado is sown, it needs to be properly shaded to avoid direct light.Watering should be frequent to keep the soil moist, too dry is not conducive to the development of seedlings.When it grows out, it can see the light properly, and the temperature is controlled between 16-27 degrees Celsius, which is more helpful for the growth of plants.
