Well the squirrels decided to dig the radishes up in order to plant their own seeds so those are out! But I’ve replaced them with more avocado pits instead!
This time I am conducting a little experiment - I’ve had little success sprouting avocado pits so I wanted to try a few different methods to see if any would prove more/less successful!
Two pits were planted in a dirt/compost mixture and placed in the sunlight. I’ve also watered them with a mixture of pond water rich in nutrients and compost tea.
One pit has been placed in a shallow bowl of water to try the traditional toothpick method.
I have additional avocados that will be eaten soon so there are more pits to come!
P.S. Check out how the three mulberry cuttings from are doing! The two planted at Wild Rose Acres are also doing well!
