Avocado drop offs
« on: July 04, 2013, 11:48:17 AM »
Two questions.

Has anyone tried to germinate the seeds of small half to one inch avos that drop early?

And is there any point to trying this with the loads of small drop-offs we all get?  Assuming they germinate.

I've never seen a fruit aborted early germinate.

Posted this cause a friend got one small seed to sprout.   He has thousands of drop-offs and was wondering if it was worth the time and effort to pursue.
