Avocado grower π₯
A small ceramic collar designed to hold a sprouting avocado stone above water without harming the stone so a root system will form, makes a great gift.
*Instructions for use*
π₯ Wrap your stone entirely in tissue paper, wet, squeeze out and stick in a sealed plastic bag. Place in a dark warm place (the cupboard over the hob is brilliant).
π₯ Keep tissue damp, check in from time to time and around 4-6 weeks later it will have sprouted the start of a stem from the top (pointy end) and roots from the fatter bottom.
π₯ Place your stone into the collar and stand the collar over a narrow glass of water, keep the water topped up and stand on a sunny window sill
π₯ After the stem has grown around 15cm, cut it back to 10cm. Keep topping up that water.
π₯ Pot up in soil. Will be happy outside in summer, bring it inside through the winter.
Price is for one collar, glass & cat not included π
