I live in Texas, and an avocado tree magically sprouted out of my compost bin over the spring :0 I feel like I've been blessed by the avocado gods
How's the plant?
@@koolaidshower it survived the winter! it was looking kinda brown and crunchy over this last spring, but its getting lots of new leaves and its actually making bark!!! The stem is strong and it's about 3 foot tall now :) thank you for asking. I'm thinking about putting it in a new location, but similar conditions
You've been chosen. I heard it loves happy frog soil.
@Icecream0monster how is your plant now?
I accidentally dropped mine and it broke the stem I was so sad. Then I wondered why it grew so much faster than the other one. I didn't know i accidentally pruned mine by dropping it 😂
Haha it was fate!
That's amazing. 😂👏 It was meant to be.
@@genesisabigaelboyer2974 haha ikr
When I cut the top off mine, I put it in a cup of water. Three weeks later it has tiny roots starting to grow.
Yeah I've heard that's a thing! That's so cool! I wish I had tried that with mine
I got two avocados trees from one. Wasn't planning to do anything with the top before.
@@eal5023 mate! Your comment is gold. I'll try this method NOW. :)
@@eal5023 omg that’s amazing I didn’t know they were so easy to take root like that
What temperature do you think you had the cutting in water in? I heard it has to be warm to propagate them. Also how is growing now? How many roots and is it in dirt yet?
So glad I’m not the only one who’s afraid of pruning them 🙈 and also glad I’m not the only one talking to my plants and ‘cuddling’ them 😂
Haha yupp! You're not alone :)
@@GoodGrowing after pruning the leaves are hanging downwards, my boyfriend is laughing now, saying they are sad I pruned them 😂🙈
So I just pruned mine after about a month of debating and mine only had leaves at the top so I was really worried because that's where all of its leaves were but I did it anyways and it was just an ugly little stick poking out of a seed and nothing ever grew back for about 3 weeks... and then after e weeks it exploded and now is growing 2x faster than before and after about 2 weeks of growth it's already twice as big as it was before I pruned it. I'm thinking of doing it again because it grew a 2nd trunk and now is growing so tall so fast. I highly recommend pruning. Just be patient because it will take about a month for it to heal and start new growth. Just make sure you prune just above the node not below it I think that's where most people mess up is they cut below the node and the node is where the new growth comes from so if you cut that off that's where the new growth would have started so cut just above a node.
I live in Germany, and have a avocado too, it is in a special selv watering pot, with special soil. It live all time indoor on a east facing window. I have to water it every week with approximately 700ml water in witch I put 10-14 drops of fertilizer and 2 drops of trace elements for plants. The avocado is doing well for two years now (not shure). That's my experience and I want to share it. :)
I have an avocado tree that I've never pruned (I was afraid to). It had grown to seven feet twice. The first time the top bent over about 4 feet from the bottom. Another limb has grown from the bend of the top and is again above the curtains. It is from the pit and about six years old. I would like to prune it, but where? There are no leaves on the original 4 foot pit stem. I live in zone 7 and am afraid it's too cold too long with too little sun to plant outside.
@@RitaMcswain I'm not an expert, but if the plant try to grow, my avocado tends to grow for a while and then do nothing for a while, if it in a growing season you can cut it basically everywhere, but the plant decided were it want to grow a new branch... In my experience, dont touch the roots and everything will be fine, but I'm also very afraid of pruning therefore I cut of the very young branches, and let the plant do it's thing
Thank you! I really appreciate your answering.
How warm is it inside your house?
@@anniegreen9427 18 Degrees in winter and 20-24 degrees in the summer
SO GLAD I FOUND YOUR CHANNEL! I’m living in Finland and growing so many plants that are similar to yours so it’s really helpful to know what’s normal in terms of temp, lighting, care, etc! My avocado plant (Leafy) hasn’t been doing so well but this vid gives me some hope it might make it to see another summer :)
Aww yay welcome :) So glad that I can give you helpful info
I just started my 1st two seeds a month ago and was searching for some planting information, came across your video and it's great !!! Was all I needed and the humor was appreciated LOL...
Haha thanks! So glad I could provide you with some info-tainment 😉
Loved this! I’ve been searching for a video on caring for avocado trees for years so THANK YOU - sincerely, a dying avocado tree mom from NY
I have had my avocado plants for almost two years and an easy watering sign is when the leaves start to hang or sack a little. The tips might be brown sometimes but it still grows in height so I guess it's happy anyway.
It's really fun to grow plants from seed especially from foods so to speak.
thank you, there are SO many videos on how to germinate the seed but so few on what to do after it actually grows lol.
This was incredibly helpful! I have an avocado I've grown from a pit [I got it in a tub of guacamole from my favorite restaurant on their last day and didn't expect it to grow!], I've been so nervous about trimming it! A few lower leaves have been a little yellowy lately and fell off so I started lookin for info and this video was a huge help! Thank you!
So glad I could help! I hope your avo plant thrives :)
You're funny. I have been growing my avacado tree here in Western Ma. I've named him Arnold and he's doing well. Thanks for the complete rundown there.
So brave of you 👍😊!
Thanks a lot for a comprehensive video.
I need a video update on these babies :)
Love your vibe! 🧡
Thanks :)
Very nice video. My indoor plants had a problem with chlorine, lead and other contaminants in my city water. Buying distilled water cost too much, so I bought a Brita water pitcher that filters out chlorine, lead, etc. It cost me less than $25 usd and filters about 300 gallons a year before I need to buy a $15 replacement filter. My plants are less stressed and its easier to control my fertilizer use.
I live in Portugal and my avocado plant just grew like crazy and it’s one very springy tough stem of 60-70 cm with leaves reaching 30 cm long and it’s in a tiny vase.
I think I’ve been watering a bit more than I should, I grew it from Water so I thought it would need a lot.
Cheers for the vid :D great info
Ouch! I live in apt New York City so I completely understand the no direct sunlight issue I don’t have a green thumb, in fact I could kill a rock garden if you give me the chance. But I started an avocado from the seed and now it’s about 2 feet tall. I had heard about pruning but had no idea what it meant. But I followed what you said and I did it. And I thought “what the hell did I just do“ LOL.
I loved how you spoke in the video. You were not condescending you were not all arrogant. You spoke to me, at least, like a friend who knows what they’re doing. As opposed to a cocky florist. Thumbs up
Thanks for this, I was too scared to prune the 4 Avocado plants I grew from pit while I was on furlough, but I’ve finally grown a pair and I’m about to do it, wish me luck, or send condolences
Haha I understand completely! Glad I could help with the confidence! You've got this! Your plants will thank you for it!
Thank you!!! I had a super leggy avocado and had no lower leaves. So I pruned it down to the first split and we'll see!
Ooh yay! I hope that helps it grow less leggy! :)
Seriously, the look on my face was the same as yours and I had to explain to my horrified children hahah. It's a sweet little sapling!
My whole top died, so I saw lil nods on the long trunk and topped it ,and now I have top leaves.... I have 4 more to trans plant..in water now...I lost my biggest ,it showed all of a sudden,didn't have a chance to bring in.but learned my lesson!
Aww I feel you when it comes to pruning my plants but thank you so much for sharing!! I was just about to prune my avocado plant but I spotted your video, measured my plant and it has two more inches to grow lol!! PHEW!!🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Thank you. that was very informative. I have 3 avocado that I started in pots and they have just started to sprout.
I think I cut too much and now I'm crying :')
aww thats sooo sad :(
As long as you still have a node and the stem is still somewhat green, it should be ok, I believe. The chlorophyll in the stem will help provide energy to the node to grow. So if you don’t have leaves but the stem is still green then the node should be ok.
Same here. My tree now only has one leaf 😂
Thank you for these awesome videos. You are amazing!
Aww thank you
Nothing wrong with you, nothing wrong with loving life.
Great video, very concise. Thank you.
Yep. Pruned mine for the first time since I grew it from a seed. There are actually 8 plants now. What started as an experiment is now an obsession. LOL
I took the clipping and shoved it into the dirt with the seed and stem. Maybe it will root? We'll see.
Living in the Pacific Northwest of USA the plants will have to be indoors. Even then, the south/west window ledge is currently 61F/16C while it is 39F/4C outside. My room is 66F/19C. So I have some of the plants under a growlight that gets the surrounding air temps to 72F/22C.
Thank you for the tip about the dampness of the soil. I have them all in those self-watering pots with the wick that seems to bring up way too much water as the soil is constantly damp. I guess I will just stop putting so much water in the reservoir and will move them to different pots when I can.
Great helpful tips !
Oooooh, u're soo amazing! I love your video) Me too now growing several Avos & keeping an eye on them all the time, cuz they're still so tiny & quite )))) (it's been couple moths since sprouted & one is just cracking a seed by now)
My avocado grew to 2feet outside this summer in an entirely shady garden...just stuck a pit in a Begonia pot and after a few months, I have a 2 foot tall plant with 8 med sized leaves on top and 6 new leaves budding out now. I really don’t want to prune it...I’d only have about 3 leaves left...I have 3 more started so will definitely prune these when they’re not too tall...I have mine in a very hot and sunny South facing window and noticed two of my leaves are getting a darker color...right now they’re light green, not deep green...I’ll give it morning sun but dapped afternoon sun and see how it does...very exciting to discover this plant in my garden...may try to Bonsai one, or two, of them...love your videos....thanks...Pat
Sounds like you have a some beautiful plants! I know it's scary to prune. But in the end, it will give you a more robust plant that will grow more branches. The one's I chopped are already starting to sprout again in multiple places!
Gurl ur so funny! Thanks for a wonderful video!
I was ruthless with my pruning, cutting it wayyyy back tp the first node. The stalk grew back super thick with a second branch starting at the base and nice big leaves. Im sp glad i took the chance!😊
I'm sure if you prune it at that size, and apply rooting hormone to the cut part, you will end with two avocados for the price of one 15 to 30 days after, if they are taken good care and root.
Thanks for the video, it gave me lots of ideas!
So happy to see you kiss your pruned plant. 😊 I felt the same way.
im so proud of you
Thank you very much for your tips of growing avocado 🥑
Thanks for making this video. I’m also emotionally attached to my avocado plant and I know I should prune it but I grew it from seed and only 6 months or so later it’s like one meter tall with a fairly thick stem! But no branches which is what I want.
I’m just thankful because I think I’ve done the opposite of what every avocado tree expert advises up to this point and the plant is flourishing. I have it in just regular potting soil mixed with compost. I water it from below so I doubt the soil ever really dries out. I recently had to transplant it to a new pot because it’s already outgrown the current one. Just hoping it continues to flourish and make nice healthy branches.
How did it go? Has the stem gotten thicker? I’m thinking of pruning one and leaving one be but I don’t want it to be so long and skinny.
@@zarahya6123 Yeah the stem is getting thicker. It's probably similar to my index finger in thickness. When I first pruned it after a couple weeks some new buds started emerging all over the plant. I was excited because I thought that I was going to have 4-5 new branches but what ended up happening is one of the branches became the new dominant main stem and the other branches never really grew. One grow about 3 inches and produced a couple leaves but that was it. After about 2-3 months the plant is now almost 2 meters tall and it stopped growing upwards for the time being and started putting it's energy into growing some actual real branches (3 so far).
@@matthewkoveleski9131 wow, that’s incredible!! 2 meters?! You must have found a hulk seed lol! I had one last year but my cat broke the stem off when it was ~15 cm, after that it only grew a new stem up along the side with two leaves on top. It got to about ~30 cm and then it stopped growing, the stem was also very skinny, maybe 0.5 cm in width.. Idk what happened, but after a few months without any growth I threw it out.. It never got any leaves further down the stem either. It looked so sad.. I hope my new ones (I have 6 seeds in water atm) will be a little more lively, since I’m going to attempt to bonsai a few of them :)
@@zarahya6123 Yeah haha I don't really know. I'm really new to gardening and growing things from seed but it never gave me any issues. The sad thing is I will have to give my plant away or sell it in a couple years. But yeah those stupid cats! I have 4 and they are responsible for 99% of all plant deaths in my house. I don't know what kind of climate you live in but if you can put your new ones outside that would probably be best.
Mine is not ready to prune, buuut, when it comes time, you, my friend, gave me the courage to prune, because I don't like to prune either, but you did it, so I can too.
Thank you so much! Love your video
Just to clarify, Avocado plants are known in many other countries ( Not originating in Mexico). But i love the content you are sharing. Thank you.
New grower glad to be here
Excellent video full of very useful information!! Now I see where I’ve gone wrong, especially evil salt in water as we have a nasty water softener which has killed all my house plants!
I LOVE YOUR SPIRIT! you kissed the plant! smiling at chu!
Aww thank you
I'm proud of you 👏
Thank you. Love it.
Good tips.I am living in malaysia.lam learning n have successfully grown avocado.It brows well .Your vedio is very useful
Aww thanks! So glad you found it helpful :) Good luck with your avocados
Omgoodness!!! I cut my two babies with you. Thank you for the advice...I'm a proud momma.🤗 was so afraid to snip.
awsome💚
Thanks a million my dear❤
wow thank you my plant was turning a little yellow and the ends were turning brown I will take better care of it now
Great vid!!! Yeah it was difficult for me not cut mine as well. How long does it take for the plant to grow back after pruning?
Prune away!! I didn't (until recently) & got the spindly stem until I snipped it (scared also) & WOW!! so many new shoot growth.
Just pruned mine (it was at a metre ish tall). 🤞🤞🤞🤞It recovers well.
You gave me the strength to prune my baby. Thank you.
No worries! I got you ;)
I hate pruning also ugh, I'm so proud of you 👏
Thanks for the video! Quick question: I just planted the my first Avocado plant I grew from seed, it's been growing fine so far, but now most of the leaves are hanging down instead of standing up. I'm afraid of overwatering it, as the soil is still a bit moist. If anyone has an idea lemme know :)
Hi
I've put this video on hold before you make the cut, trepidation. I'm going to prune mine tomorrow and they're just single stems. I'll have to drum up some Dutch courage before I do it, (a very large whisky).
Hey ho, here we go, I'll watch...
Hahah love it! It's so much easier doing it with someone! I probably wouldn't have done it myself if I didn't make this video ;) you got this!
I am in Islamabad. I had an avocado plant and this year after some five years we had a huge crop. About a hundred lovely big fruit.
Nice. I have one too. 3 month old with 5 leaves.
Growing mine in a pint of water as I saw a video about growing from seed in damp tissue and a ziplock bag and then to a jar of water but had no idea where to go from there. It's now about 14" in height two tiers of leaves and a few baby leaves on the stem and further growth at the top through stem. It literally has no soil so I had to chuckle when you said they don't like much water 😂😅🫣 Maybe I should experiment with this and see how much water becomes too much without soil 🤭
Great video! Would love to see an update!
New sub Emma!
Thank you!!
Aww thank you! Welcome to the good growing family :)
@@GoodGrowing Im excited!😃😆🙏❤🕉
help I’m like you i was so excited to grow my plant from seed ❣️I don’t have the best lighting and i don’t get direct light from my window..it seems to love being by my 20 gal fish tank and that small light and i’m worried that if i move it closer to the window( it’s across the room from the window) that it will feel colder….i just don’t want to disturb it it it’s good where it’s at…ugh I’m in love with it❣️❣️
That explains why my avocado plant is not growing, it's so far from the window! 😅 Thanks for the tip
Fill a gallon jug with tap water, and let it sit for 24 hours opened. The chemicals they treat it with will diminish dramatically. It is not perfect, but it helps!
Thanks for the info. You are very helpful. Could you do orchids also?
No problem! Glad you enjoyed! I haven't got any orchids actually. But if I ever get any I will be sure to make a video on them :)
Good info...thanks a lot
Not me crying bc I did this today😭my baby it's only for the best interest
I NEED an update!!! I also have an Avocado plant. I just replanted it into a bit bigger of a pot, and I trimmed it and everything. So, I need to know, is there light at the end of the tunnel!!!
My leaves keep browning and then more will grow. Your video helped me work out why, so thank you.
Yay so glad I could help :)
I live in Texas and I successfully had 3 out of 4 of my seeds sprout and I also found distilled water down here to be extremely cheep for a gallon is about 1 us dollar which is extremely good for me since I also own carnivorous plants
Water distiller off Amazon was super cheap and what I use. Hit it hard and it can make 6 gallons in a day. I live in an rv, so they don’t take up a bunch of space and it’ll pay for it’s self in not time. 😁
ah interesting! I'll have to look into that! Thanks :)
Did you buy a stove-top distiller or an electric one?
First nice video. I started growing an my first avocado plant two years ago, and became too scared of cutting it back. So, I allowed it to grow taller. Plus, I had it in a big pot too big for it's size and no drained holes, my plant was doing good until it becomes too tall, the stems brown and leaves where Browning at the ends. I do have a question about reviving a avocado plant, can it be revived by re potting?
I'm starting off freshly now, with cactus soil with a well drained plant pot.
May I ask, what grow light should I get for my avocado?
Question! I just got one avocado plant and you can tell it has never been pruned because there's only one thin stem with three leaves on top. So can I prune it even if it doesn't have leaves on the bottom?
same question hahaha
I started growing an Avocado plant with my mum when I was 11. It is 10 years old now and it is way taller than 2 meters! It reaches the ceiling and has to bend because of this. It was indoors the whole time. I love the big Avocado! :)
sounds awesome!
btw did it grow flowers?
Hi, no, it didn't grow flowers. No flowers, no fruit, just leafs. :)
Have a nice day!
Hey Emma, thank you for your video! I have a quick question. So we have an avocado plant, and we’ve never pruned it 😂. Now it’s 4 feet tall and it’s got a single stem for 2.5 feet and two branches both for 1.5 feet. We don’t know what to do and if we should prone it now. Any advice? Thank you!
Maybe trim each of the branches down to just above the lowest leaf?
Hi, thank you so much for this video! I've been looking all over how to care for my baby. Is it fine though to prune it during winter? I'm so scared to kill it. :(
No problem! So glad you found it helpful! Yes you can defo prune it now and it shouldn't be an issue. You may not see much new growth until it gets a bit warmer but that's totally fine. Good luck!
hey i have a question, can you help me? i pruned my now 6 month old avocado nearly 2 months ago and i didn’t kill it thankfully, one node became red and started growing into a branch with 5 growing leaves now, however i saw a second node, at the top, 1mm before the cut, growing too but it stopped growing (i figured there wasn’t enough stem left for it to grow, cut mine too short for the second branch to form :(( ) however i heard after pruning your avocado should kinda start growing into a Y shape (so two new branches) , instead i only got one, but i’m afraid if i start pruning that branch for new growth, it’ll only grow on that side of the plant and nothing will grow on the other since there is nothing to prune. what do i do? how do i balance it out? start over? or would a second pruning kill the entire stem since my avocado really put a lot of energy in that new branch (there’s not super much sun now, winter) . HELP😭 i want an even bushy tree, how do i activate other nodes without cutting the entire stem again, it’s still green and young similar to the plant in your video!
Hmmm im sure you could prune it again from the main stem and it would probably be okay. Avocado plants are meant to be pruned so my gut says it will be okay! best of luck :)
Do I wait till my tree has a second set of leaves to prune it? 🥺
You're brave, a heroine😊
Hehe thanks :)
You are so so lovely girl:) i wish you the best with your plants, and in your life:) good luck!!
Aww thank you :)
By the way, today I transplanted my avocado from water to pot, because the leaves was brown and I kept him in my room instead outside, i felt sorry for him, so I transplanted, brought to sun, and hopefully it does not get shock too much. I do not know what will I do when cooler weather comes, I'm from Lithuania, so climate isn't the best for this plant:)
Thx for vid!
Can i prune and leave no leaves on the plant? All leaves are currently at thr very top! Thx.
Mine is still in water and doing really well. Should I still prune it or should I wait until I put it in the soil?
You can do it in either water or soil. But if it's the right size, there's no harm in doing it now :)
One of my plants has one long spindly stem and all the leaves but one have fallen off lol Should I prune it or is it a lost cause?
Oh no! I'm not too sure because you'd think it would need leaves to grow, but you could always try?
I've just grown my very first avocado tree from pit! It's grown up to 8 Inches so far.
My main concern right now is that I live in Canada. Should I prune soon or is it too close to the cold Autumn months now and I should wait until Spring at this point? Should I pot it in soil soon and before the pruning?
What do you do when there arent any leaves at the bottom of the stem? I have a pretty tall avocado plant with some huge leaves at the very top, but there are only like 3 very small leaves at the bottom.
I love your video's! And thanks for all the tips :)
The leaves on the bottom grow first as the plant gets taller leaves sprout at the top, so that will never be a problem. You still have leaves at the bottom so you can still cut don’t worry it will be fine. (:
Hi. If I wanna have bushier than a taller avocado tree, how should I prune it?
Thank you for your videos...
Oh my... I just pruned 2 as well... makes me cry 😢😭🤧 but if is good for the plant, is good for me ( i'll keep the stwm with leaves for few days😁 )
apparently you can propagate the top cutting from the pruning! I've never done it but a few people have told me it's possible. just stick it in some water
Do you have any recent avocado plant updates?? I used your paper towel to toothpick method and have a beautiful little avocado tree with 9 leaves! I was thinking about planting it in soil (it’s been in water for about 7 months) but then half the pit broke off! I’m afraid to plant it now because if it dies, I won’t know if it’s because I planted it or because half the pit fell off. Do you know if the plants shed the pit after a while? I’d assume eventually they’d have to for the trunk to get any bigger, but I’m nervous about my next move! Would love some advice if you have any!!
I actually just decided to get rid of my avo plants as they weren't bringing me as much joy anymore. They were living fine in soil and one of them the pit shrivelled up and it still grew fine. I wouldn't worry too much about the pit breaking off. I feel like that is normal. If I were you, I'd pot up in soil :)
I live in Switzerland. Mine has been in a pot outside since I planted it (almost a year ago) went down to -5°C, it's still growing and amazingly still alive xD
No fertilising, I water when I remember (rarely ...), haven't pruned it yet (just as scared as you are)
Let's see how it does when spring comes along! :D
Oh wow I' surprised it's growing so well outside in winter!
-6C is usually the threshold for mexican varieties.
Hi, ive an avocado plant i grew from seed which is now about 3 years old - but never pruned it back!! Its about half a meter tall with lots of healthy leaves, how far back should i cut this back to? I would appreciate your help :)
You could try to root the top. You may need rooting hormone maybe, but as long as its still young growth without bark it may possibly root.
My seedling produced one long, skinny, bald stem and at the top a few leaves. Should I still prune it?
I pruned my avocado tree in the winter times and now the small tribe is getting brown and I don't know if I should cut the brown part or not
Hello i have a question. My roomate is a plant parent beginner and he had a avocado plant that is now, well just a dry stem. But the roots are intact. Can it regrow a new stem or is it a lost cause? I can't bring myself to tell him that it might be dead :'D
Hello! 👋 I love your care tips! (Very helpful) :) But, I actually have an issue with my plant. It is very tall and skinny, and the leaves sprout then dry out. 😔How do I stop that? Also, my avacado plant is very tall and skinny with no branches, and I want to prune it to encourage growth. In what area of the plant should I prune it? Because I don’t want to mess up, I have been growing it for 1 year. 🌱 Thank you!
Hey! I haven't done this myself, but I've seen people prune theirs so it's like 6 inches above the pit with no leaves. Not sure what happens after that but as long as you keep caring for it, I'd think it should eventually sprout again.
Hi! Your tips have helped me a ton but I have a problem! Help! I didn't prune my avocado tree in time and now I've got a long stalk (probably about a foot) with big, beautiful leaves at the top. How should I prune going forward? I want mine bushy and beautiful like yours! Of course, I know that might not be possible but how do I keep it happy now?
Same problem, no answer ☹️
Can you plant this part that you cut? my avocado trunk is about 4feet long without any leaves and on the top it has 4 leaves I want to cut it 5inch below that leaves and plant it ? will that work will it grow any roots or it die?
Heya! Also it 'can' produce fruit if grown from a polyembryonic variety. You can know which one is a clone of the parent by seeing which one is the most vigorous and strongest growing one out of all :)
Oh very interesting! Thanks for that info :)
I have the same plant as yours same size and shape and two thin stem .I am very scared of cutting 😢 but after your advice its necessary . Will try my luck and thanks for this video .In India Avacados are very rare so I need this kind of help.
You've got this!
