How do I grow a producing avocado tree from a pit?
+5
I have grown a plant from a pit, but I think I remember hearing that it needs two plants or some knowledge of grafting or cross pollination. Is it worth trying this at home? (In Israel) How do you do it?

Leave the pits in a glass with water ( change water when needed) until pits gets swollen then plant in good soil.
Just stick the point down in a jar with a smaller neck. You can stick toothpicks in it to hold them or put them in soil. They take up to 20 years to produce from seeds. If you know someone with avocado trees you can graft their trees to your seedlings when they are larger for fruit in 2-4 years.
There's a great Facebook group you can join called 'Growing avocados in cups of water society'. Lots of advice and photos to help you along. Happy growing.
