Project - Avocado !!
I love avocados !!
So i used the toothpick method to grow my own Avocado Tree...hopefully by the time it is grown i will have a home of my own with lawn where i will be able to plant it...distant dream!!
Around October i took avocado seed and pierced it a bit with agarbatti left over stick on three sides and suspended it into glass of water with the pointed edge of the seed facing upward out of water.
Months went by and nothing happened.... the used to fill it up to the brim whenevr the water evaporated. I was patient- infact i had little expectations.
Come Febuary'10 i saw the seeds split open.... but not a sign of root but within a week - ten days a saw a tiny root. This is how it looks right now....no shoot yet!!
