Transplanting Sprouted Avocado Seeds from Water to Soil

When to Move Avocado to Soil

Plant as soon as you see a root tip. Don't wait for a large shoot—fragile roots break easily. Plant deeply in a large pot. Keep soil warm (70–80°F) and humid. The shoot will emerge quickly once the root is in warm soil.
