Thanks so much, Zippy. I top up the water every week or two so the roots aren't left exposed to air for too long. Hasn't been an issue so far but if you'd like to be on the safe side, you can submerge it in water as well.

Hi! Such beautiful plants and aesthetics. Quick question: once the rooting system gets very dense, how do you refill? Isn't there a danger that you cut off the rooting system if you lift! And how do you clean the bottle?! It seems impossible with such a small bottle opening. Any tips? Thanks and keep feeding us amazing images🥑🌺

@TheStyleGene

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the kind comment, Fanny. 💚 I do refill the bottles as the plant will drink it up. Once a week I carefully lift the seed ever so slightly to reveal a small opening at the rim of the bottle. I top the water up using my IKEA watering can which has a very thin and narrow spout. As for cleaning the bottle, I only pour out all the water and refill (again with the little opening between seed and bottle rim) so it’s not a thorough clean. But this is also because I chose to reuse drink bottles with smaller necks. You could always grow the avocado plant in a larger vessel which would make it heaps easier to completely clean the bottle and refill. Hope this helps. 😊

Hey Jonathan, thanks so much for the kind words. 😊 I use Plant Runner's Indoor Plant Food for my indoor plants and the measurement is 1ml (the dropper has a measurement indicator) per 1 litre, but all the avocados in this video got to where they are without fertilising so I can't say for sure if they would have a more positive growth with plant food added. If adding to the avocado, I'd measure based on the size of the bottle and amount of water used. Link to the product here: theplantrunner.com/products/indoor-plant-food

Hey Kitty. Thanks for reaching out. Don't be anxious as slow or stunted growth is normal with the avocado seed plant. After a while it might just maintain its size and number of leaves. Some seeds won't keep sprouting new leaves but it doesn't mean the plant isn't going to survive. 🌱

Thanks for taking the time to watch, Jay! 😊 I find that timing for each seed to sprout can differ. I've had ones that already grew shoots while wrapped in the moist paper towel, some that had roots in water for a couple of weeks and up to a couple of months. I've also had instances where the seed rooted but just won't grow stems or leaves, so don't be disheartened if that happens. I'll give it another month to see if there are any signs of the seed cracking open a little wider but otherwise you can keep trying with a new avocado seed. Each one is unique in its own so just because one failed doesn't mean the next one succeed. 🌱 Keep on trying! 💚

I think that's fine if you're planting it in soil. 👍🏼 The root should take and grow like any other plant in a pot. It's only when we're doing it in water that the seed is important to balance and ensure the plant stays upright on a bottle. Removal of the skin also adds to the aesthetic if placing in water but isn't necessary in soil.
