I used toothpicks around the avocado seed and put in enough water so it's bottom was just under the water.
It sits in the basement and the only light is from are egress window.
It took about a month for it to start growing roots.
And about 3 or 4 week before I could see a stem starting to come through.
I will be adding more pictures of it getting bigger.
Right now it starting to get some leaves on it.
And the temperature in my basement is about 64-66 degree during the warmer months.
In the winter time the temperature is about 60-63 degree.
So far I haven't had any problems with it .
I'm hoping it will do fine in the basement during the winter months.
