Avocado Buoy, Gigi

Grow an avocado tree at home! Gigi is a charming cork buoy for germinating avocado pits.

BYO avocado seed/pit...grow it, don't throw it!

1. Remove the skin from your avocado pit.
After enjoying your best avocado toast, remove the pit, wash it and remove its thin brown skin.

2. Prepare for swimming.
Place it in a paper towel, moisten it well and place it in an airtight bag or container

3. Give it some time.
Leave it in the dark for ≈ 4 weeks As soon as your pit has split and a small root appears, it means it is ready for swimming!

4. Put on its buoy... and into the water!
Fill a glass, vase, or other container with water. Place the seed on its float, with the root well submerged in the water. #poolparty

5. Watch your avocado tree grow.
Be patient, a stem will quickly grow and leaves will appear! Once you have several leaves you can repot it in soil.

Carefully harvested from sustainably managed forests.

The perfect gift for the plant lover in your life.
For a gift idea with a twist. Give it to those who love growing, observing, and waiting... and especially to those who devour avocados with a passion!
