I want to start an avocado from a seed. I used to grow them all the time. Now I need to know which end do I put in soil, the large end or the smaller end?  Thank you.

You have to poke tooth picks all the way around the middle of the seed half way up, then then place the bigger rounded end into a cup of water so that the bottom of the seed is in the water touching it.

Keep the dish replenished with water it will take several weeks to start to sprout, I started one like this for my Daughter and it's now a quite tall tree!
