The Mom I Want to Be

Ripe avocado pit

3 toothpicks

Glass of water

 

Stick toothpicks into middle of pit, spacing so that pit can balance inside the rim of the glass, large end down. Fill glass with enough water to cover bottom of pit. Place in warm spot-not in direct sun. Replace water as it evaporates.  When a good root system has formed (1-3 months) pot seed in 6 inch pot filled with potting soil. Move plant to sunny location. Keep moist, but not soggy.
