Two months or so ago, I started something I must've done 500 times as a child - I tried to grow an avocado seed. This time, however, I had the internet on my side! This article at The Hungry Mouse sums it up pretty well, and while my pit isn't doing exactly as it said it would, I still feel pretty confident. As soon as I have another jar, I'm going to be doing another one for one of my former coworkers.
This is my little avocado - yep, that's one long root shooting out the bottom, and no leafy stem or shoot from the top yet! It has seriously cracked quite a bit, but it's still going strong. I've got it in a Mt. Olive pickle jar on my kitchen windowsill and I really can't wait to see how well it develops.
