Avoseedo is a small plastic bowl that features an indentation with a hole in it. A single avocado seed can be inserted with the flat end facing down. Afterwards, Avoseedo can be placed in a sufficiently large, water-filled pot. Due to its low weight and high displacement, Avoseedo will remain at the surface all the time; as the water level lowers, Avoseedo will sink accordingly. With Avoseedo, you can significantly raise the success rate when it comes to avocado germination. Without any risk, you can decrease the watering intervals drastically. Only from time to time you will have to check the water level of the pot containing Avoseedo plus avocado seed. Compared to the original toothpick method, theres another advantage: the avocado seed doesnt need to be perforated, reducing the risk of damage (and thus, failed germination efforts). And finally, Avoseedo features a mounting that can be used to attach small flags. These can be inscribed with the date when germination started, with strain names or with additional information. Thus, you can easily keep track, even when germinating several avocado seeds at the same time.

Cool idea
It sure did take some time, but I finally got pits to root. 4 months to be exact. I had a couple fails along the way as well. I found that Avacados grown in the USA do better than the Mexican ones. You should understand that there is a low chance that you will get a fruit bearing tree. Most trees from seed don't fruit. The trees you get in stores that do fruit are cuttings from a fruiting tree. I just thought this would be cool to do and I'm probably going to plant one or two trees at my house and then give some away. This was a neat idea and I'm glad someone capitalized from it.

Fun To Watch it Grow!
I’ve had my AvoSeedo floating in a bowl on my window sill for a month. The pit slowly split and now I have two small roots poking out through the bottom. It is so fun to see it growing week by week, and it really makes you appreciate the no-rush pace of nature. Every couple of weeks, I wash the bowl and sides of the AvoSeedo and refresh the water. I can’t wait to pot my first home-sprouted avocado plant!Side note: organic avocado pits are sometimes smaller than conventional. Mine kept falling through, so I bent a paperclip to hold it in place (see pic).**UPDATE** My avocado tree is nice and healthy and doing well!

After 5 months, we got this little sprout going ...
After 5 months, we got this little sprout going! I filled up a trash bin with water, so I don't have to worry about refilling at all.We are located in the bay area, California, so the weather here is warm most of the time.Also, different avocados sprout at different rates. The one pictured is an avocado from mexico. We set it up the same day as 2 seeds from avocados from California. Now, California sprouts are only an inch tall, while the Mexican avocado seed has 10 inches.Have patience!

A Must-Have!!!!
Works great! Started two seeds almost 3 months ago (one was a dud), but the other has taken off!!! When it grew to about 3-4 inches and just started to get little leaves, I trimmed it. After 2 weeks, it turned into this!!! It's been so fun watching it grow. I must say that it was about 6 weeks before I began to see the root inside about to poke out of the bottom. Online sources said it would be about 3-4 weeks, so just remain patient!!! I tried the whole using toothpicks to have the seed rest in a bowl, but the boat made it so much easier! Stick with buying organic avocados and using ones with bigger seeds.

Easy to Use and Might Work Sometimes...
This product is a good value for the money, since we got three of them inexpensively. However, we tried these for a couple months and haven't had any luck. We've had much better luck throwing half-eaten avocados in a dirt filled flower pot, dusting over with potting soil, and sticking it outside in the sun. Using that lazy method, we're now the proud owners of TWO baby avocados trees! (We've tried this three times so far and two took and one was stolen by a squirrel). So, while I do believe I'd get good results using this product if I keep at it, I mostly feel like, why bother? I've had better luck in the potting mix.
