How to Multiply Avocado Trees Naturally and Profitably
If you’re looking for a simple and effective way to propagate avocado trees—either to expand your garden or as a potential source of income—this natural method is for you. By using readily available, organic ingredients and following a few easy steps, you can successfully reproduce avocado trees at home without relying on chemical rooting hormones.
This approach uses avocado shoots, garlic as a natural disinfectant, aloe vera for rooting hormones, tomatoes as a nutritional booster, and sand as a planting medium. It’s affordable, eco-friendly, and can deliver quick results with just a bit of care and patience.
Step 1: Select Healthy Avocado Shoots
Start by identifying healthy avocado shoots from a mature tree. Choose shoots that are green, sturdy, and about 6 to 8 inches long. Avoid any branches that are diseased, dry, or damaged. Once you’ve selected your shoot, trim it cleanly using sterilized pruning shears or a sharp knife.
Remove several leaves from the lower half of the shoot to prevent excess moisture loss and make room for planting. Leave a few leaves at the top to help with photosynthesis during the rooting process.
Step 2: Disinfect with Garlic
Before planting the shoot, it’s important to disinfect it to prevent bacterial or fungal infections. Garlic is a natural antimicrobial agent that helps keep your cutting healthy during the early stages of growth.
Crush 2–3 garlic cloves and soak them in a cup of warm water for 15–20 minutes. Stir the mixture and let the juice fully infuse. Dip the base of the avocado shoot into this garlic solution for a few minutes to sanitize it and prepare it for rooting.
