Date: April 27, 2008 12:30PM No...but I've sprouted many avocado seeds (not for eating). It takes about 3-4 weeks or so....until it forms a little root. And then several more weeks before it sprouts a plant........and then several more before leaves. Even if you managed to sprout 50 avocado seeds (difficult) they would all be growing at different stages....and yield no more than a small bite. Just some thoughts.

Date: April 27, 2008 03:51PM I sprout the seeds but not to eat; I love the trees. My parents sprouted them when I was growing up in California and got trees big enough to produce a few fruits. My partner and I are pushing the limits of what we can grow here in Massachusetts, and we have a few little trees in our living room. (Incidentally, we harvested greens inside in Jan. and outside in cold frames in Feb. We have our 1/4 acre yard about half full of gardens right now and are blowing the neighbors' minds with what we are harvesting right now!) Re: Sprouting Avocado Seeds

Date: April 28, 2008 07:30PM I've only lived in Massachusetts two winters. The first winter saw only three major snowfalls, but it was chilly all winter (well below freezing every night). This past winter had its first snowfall in mid November, and snow covered the ground (a foot plus) until the beginning of April. So usually, yes, from what the natives say.
