I thought I was overwatering but Watched this and then gave my baby water and wow!! He looked 100 times better within 5 hours. THANK YOU!!

The time-lapse is amazing. It's interesting to see how quickly a plant absorbs the water and perks right back up. Thanks!

i’m going to try bottom watering because there are gnats in the soil. Everything else confirms what i’ve been doing is okay, thanks.

I subscribed just because you took the time to do the time lapse. That's was cool to see. Thank you🌊🤙🦆🦆🦆

Thanks for the advice! The time lapse was so interesting

Love the time lapse Scott. I could watch those all day. Thanks for the tips. Blessings to you!

Your hair looks beautiful! 💚

U R a ffffffffffffffeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnntttttttttttttttaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssssssttttttttttttttttttttttiiiiiiiiiiiccccccccc teacher , Mite . Love your topic .

Thank you so much! I’m overwatering! It’s getting cold here in tennessee so I brought my avocado trees inside and two are dropping! One is curling! So I’m going to get a fan in my greenhouse area and really try to get some oxygen to them to help dry them out! I’ll be so upset if I kill them! Thank you so much!

Good info! :) Scott, I love seeing your plants thrive! Have an awesome week! :)

I lost $70 due to this trunk rotting issue. It's very common issue in QLD Australia. I got new plant and hoping that it grows well. I think prevention is better than cure. Well drained soil may do wonder

Your beach waves 😍

My few month old tree started drooping. The soil was dry and it was about time to water. So I watered it and it bounced back a bit but then started drooping again and it is slowly dying. I pulled it out and the feeder roots look great. The taproot has a "bark" like layer of brown over it but i peeled some back and underneath it is nice and white.

Love it 😍 Thank you! I’m growing avocados 🥑 they are doing so well I’ve had them in good water here in San Diego. I like this video it was very cool design to sit back relax and view ! TY

Before planting pour boiling water over the soil, drain and cool. Then sprinkle cinnamon on the top after planting. It works against gnats

I’m jealous your hair and avocado tree are better than mine 🥲🥲🥲😢😢😢😢😢😢😢🥺

just trunk chopped my 2 foot tall avocado because it was skinny and wasnt focusing on growing leaves so i hope itll widen out a bit

Great video thanks. Much love from Houston, TX.

Loved it....my avacado grew another trunk and is growing good from it :)

Stylish presentation from a stylish guy and YET informative !!

Appreciate the video. My Tree is 4 feet tall and never been pruned till 3 days ago. My bad. It's in a brute garbage can. After this video I drill many holes in the bottom and placed a lid under it. How much water should I give it and how often. It's about 3 years old. Feel like I could improve its quality of life with some more info. Tha ms. Awesome Video.

That time laps is so cool.

Hey Scott I really enjoyed this video. I had a question what does it mean when your leaves start Browning around the edges?

nice tips bro now i can revive my avocado plant

Excellent video, very helpful…!

Awesome really clear and informative

I have got my seven tree babies all in those selfwatering pots with the wick that is supposed to draw the correct amount of water into the soil. Seems the soil is always damp. Guess I should repot them.

My avocado tree recently just started loosing leaves (the bottom leaves, it has healthier looking leaves that grew at the top)... what could have caused this? The leaves that fell also had brown edges. Am I over watering?

Thanks for your video, you saved my tree!

Great method:)

Hey Scott, question about watering, have you tried using an Olla? I'm trying to find out if this would be a good solution to keeping it properly watered without encouraging root rot. Thanks! Love your videos and I've been learning a lot!

I have a Vermibag and plenty of worm castings. How often should I add castings? Thanks Great tips

Hi Scott, What should the moisture meter show when it's enough water for Avocado plant?

Hmm I have fish too so thx for the advice.

Hi. Thank you for advice. But I still have a question. I started to get brown spots on my leaves. What should I do? Please help. :D

Mine has gnats it’s driving me crazy even with neem oil spray they just won’t stop producing more gnats . I’m going to try the bottom water ! Thanks . I probably need to use new soil as well.

Thank you this information is very helpful!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I think I’ve gotten used to watering my seedlings frequently and I am confused at what stage to dial back the watering. My first born (tree) is starting to show crunchy brown leaf tips. Could this be overwatering? My tree is indoors, a bright indirect window and we have a higher humidity here in Seattle. I would appreciate any advice you can offer. Thanks Scott :)

Scott, I just discovered your channel and loving it. I have multiple avocado plants at home and they all grow so differently from each other. Which app are you using for the time lapse?

I love your beard💚🌱

Hi, very cool video. I'm curious your thoughts on watering a newly potted tree which was propogated in water. I've heard seedlings should be watered very frequently since they were submerged in water round the clock prior to being potted in soil. I've been watering my 6 week-old tree every second or third day, just before it dries out completely. Is there a time frame in which the avocado tree should be weaned from such frequent waterings? Thank you.

Great info. Thank you 👍

Thanks for this!!! Such a big help!

Thank you. Very informative!

Very informative thank you

Do you have other tricks to get rid of those mosquitoes.. They seem to thrive too well with gingerplants

Thanks from the uk

Gorgeous hair, friend!! Ngl alongside the avocado tips, I'd also like some hair tips 👀 let me know if you make a video on how you care for your hair. I'm definitely watching it

What about sun… How much …when if different in diff. seasons or areas of the country. We are currently in the South Eastern US

I just finished bottom watering my avocado plant. The soil is less than it used to be before I watered him when the soil was dry. None of the soil fell out of the pot when I cleaned the sink. Is the soil going to go back to normal level when it dries? Or should I add some more soil? Thankyou so much for this video. 😃

great video, thanks!

Should i do this at the same time as i get rid of root rot and put it in a smaller pot?

What about avocado trees in a really hot, tropical climate. I live in northeastern Brazil, only a few hundred miles from the equator. It gets really hot here. I've been watering my trees every morning lately because of the heat. Also, what about wood lice and millipedes? How do they affect the drainage of the soil? I see lots of them in my pots (large buckets, actually).

Thanks Scott for this info. Looks like my problem with my plant is over watering since my leaves are falling off and I have noticed the tiny flies all around the soil. What do you suggest to eliminate the flies?

Lots of unanswered questions in this chat string. I'll add mine to them, although I don't know why. Frustration I guess. I water my 38" tall avocado when the leaves are droopy and the soil is very dry like a desert. It perks up, then 2 days later it's droopy and dry again. That's crazy!! Maybe I need a bigger pot with more nutrient rich soil?

My almost dead seed that was in water and got bad root rot started shooting 3 branches after being put to the soil, but it got watered 3 days in a row now by accident, and i feel like its gonna get rot again if i dont do something about it. Soil is really wet, its like clay, for soil i used perlite, something called Treset here (eastern europe, croatia) and front yard soil (because i really couldnt figure out what a potting mix or peat moss is called in retail over here). I dont know if i should change the soil completely or not, or just let it dry real good this time? I dont know if this is a situation that leads to rot cause i would like to prevent that from happening again like it did when it was in water? Good work with the channel mate, keep it up

What about if the leaves are drying from dry air? What else can I do?

Thank you for the video!! I have a question.. my pit propagation is still in water, it has 4 leaves and growing few more from the point where I pruned it a couple of weeks ago. The thing is that it looks really droopy and I don't know why as it is still in water... if anyone could offer advice I would really appreciate it!! Thank you

This is how I water my avocado plant

Very nice video

Hi Scott I'm having a problem with my avocado, where the leaves are starting to brown at the edge. The soil is moist so I don't think it's over watering but was wondering if it has anything to do with using tap water. The plant is on my kitchen window and gets direct sunlight for a few hours a day. I live in the UK so the sun this time of year is not to strong. Any thoughts would be very helpful. Cheers

I have an avocado avocado sapling that was in water and one day i refilled it and saw a little later that the leaves and the top of the sapling was drooping, i started to panic because i thought it was beginning to die so i was seeing what could be the cause of it and thats when i saw your video on root rot. What was strange to me however was that you say that it typically happens because of over watering and a lack of oxygen but i had never put it in dirt so can root rot still happen when its in water only? I watched your video on the soil mix that you use for your saplings and made that same mix for my own sapling and its been in there for about 2 days now and its still droopy. I also dont think its becuase of over watering because ive only watered it once since i planted it in the soil. If you have any clue what i could do i would greatly apreciate it. Thanks in advance

Thank You

Scott, please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A few months ago, I planted my avocado pit in the soil and it began to grow. It grew beautifully to about 1 foot with 5-6 leaves on top and tiny little leaves along the stem that didn't really grow into full leaves. Recently, I noticed that one of the leaves at the bottom was starting to wilt at the edges but I didn't pay too much attention to it. I decided to prune it, so I cut the top leaving just one leaf, the way you do it in your pruning videos. But now that leaf is wilting and tiny leaves along the stem also look like they are wilting. I thought that maybe it was root rot so I dug it up, but the roots look perfectly healthy. The only thing I noticed is that I had one big root and a very few small side roots. I thought it had too much sun, so I moved it to a partial shade. Nothing seems to help. Is there something I can do to save it. It seems to be dying and very quickly. Thank you.

Thanks for the info

How often can I water my avocado tree?

Also do you have any exoerience with Arabica Coffee plant? I have one for around 1 year and it was doing good till now, but lately I am scared I will lose it :(

Marvelous

Hi Scott. Love your tips! The top leaves on my tree are turning a little spotty yellow between the veins of the leaves. I recently watered with miracle grow added to water. Did I burn it or over water? She grows in a pot indoors.

Please help My avacado tree was grown from seed. Five feet tall. ... BUT started rotting from top so I've been cutting the brown top it continues so I cut more . The bottom is beautiful. But it's down to Three feet and going 🙁😏

How long do you leave the pot in the water?

Is the general rule in bottom-watering to let the plant stand in the water for about 1 minute or is it closer to 2 minutes? Does the size of the pot/soil make a difference in how long to soak for?

Can I prune my tree now, with winter approaching? I live in sweden so it's already quite wintery

Gorgeous hair mate

Moisture meter!!!!! Where do you get one of these??

What if you have cut the avocado tree from the top and now the main stem is turn brown and traveling down the new developing leaves. What should I do?

Any tips on brown spots? Leaves are drooping a bit and have spots :-(

Hey Scott, I am Katrien and am from Belgium. I have planted for the first time an avocado like you described in your video. My plant has now grown and is already 18 cm high. We are now going to autumn and winter season. Can i prune it in winter or do i have to wait untill spring next year I like your video's very much and they are helping me. I also like the song at the end. Egards Katrien from Belgium

Is it ok to bury the whole seed when putting in a pot?

how many times should i water the seed after removing it from the cup of water to the soil

I just dropped some picture of my avocado that sprouted on your instagram with a few detail. I'd love some advice or if you see anything wrong. Thanks for your attention.

I had mine in a water cup for like 8 months and it was doing perfect. Now I’ve planted it in soil and most of it’s leaves are turning brown

I transplanted to soil today leaves drooping is it in ashock ?

Is that a trombone cup mute I saw? Do you play?

I was gifted an avocado tree from seedling. Should I put the seed on top of soil or do I leave it under the soil???

Can you please help. I have removed them from direct sunlight and watering them twice but not getting and results. Please help. Thanks

Can't I just stick one of those miracle nutrient stick in the soil? I don't want to have to take the plant out to have to fertilize it.

There is no link there.

How large is that avocado tree now?
