Can I grow avocados trees from cuttings?
The best way I found to do this is to scrap off some of the bark at the end of your branch. Now get a rooting compond that they sell at store. It can be liquid or powder. Dip the branch in the powder and cover it. Now plant the branch in soil.
A fun way to grow an avocado is from the stone
You simply put it in water and watch it root. As soon as the root outgrows the water receptacle, you can transplant to soil. YOu can have a nice sapling in as soon as 6 months
