A Recap of Last Year's Avocado Experiments π₯Exp.01-05π₯
Since I recently started a new avocado experiment I figured I should do an update/recap on all the #AvocadoExperiment fun I had last year for anyone who was following along... πβοΈ
(Pics not uploaded in order.)
π₯Exp. 01 - Successβ
"Hoss" Started by toothpick method, grown in #PothosWater and fungi">#Mycorrhizalfungi concentrate.
By far the fastest/healthiest growth out of the five. π€
About 1 month to start growing, and then about 2 more before it was ready to be potted.
Did not take well to being potted, but is starting to adjust now that I moved it to the plant room.
π₯Exp. 02 - Successβ
"Waterboy" Started by toothpick method, grown in plain filtered water.
Healthy growth but not as big as Hoss.
About 1 month to start growing, and then about 5 more before it was ready to be potted.
Adjusting well to being potted. π
π₯Exp. 03 - Neutral ππ
"NoName" Started by toothpick method, grown in plain pothos water.
The roots grew well, but the top growth got powdery mildew or some similar fungal infection I was never able to get rid of. It lives out back now. The roots are healthy and alive and the pit is on it's 6th new attempt to start a tree... π€·
Started 6 months ago.
π₯Exp. 04 - Failureπ«
"Eggy" Started by fully submerging in pothos water.
After 4 months of no change I finally potted it in hopes it would grow.
Unfortunately it had been rotting from the inside out and within 5 days it was completely brown and shriveled up.
π₯Exp. 05 - Successβ
"Thomas" Started by placing directly in dirt, watered with #mycorrhizae and pothos water.
Took 5 months to start growing.
Doing well so far! Very smol and cute. π
For more details, pictures, etc about these experiments, follow the official # at the top of the post.
π§ͺHappy experimenting this spring/summer #ScienceWithGreg! π§ͺ

If you're looking for info/pics on a specific experiment, I made some vanity tags for them where you'll only see posts about the one you're looking for. πβοΈ

Thanks @NightBloom! ππ«Ά
@dreamlettuce Allll the avocados!!! Lol π
Waterboy is definitely looking the best right now, but Hoss is due for a trim soon so that may help him out with growing more branches... π
Thanks for following along on my crazy journey! π«Άπ«Άπ«Ά
