    Thank you so much for this video! I recently grew 5 avocado trees and 2 of them have white leaves! I had no clue why so the timing of your video is just perfect 🤩
    One of the trees just started growing green leaves but the other hasn’t yet. I’ll definitely keep an eye on it! 👀
    Thanks again and I hope you are doing well! 🙂🌿

    Thank you for this explanation. I had / have one. The white leaves on mine stayed in a ball unchanging for maybe six months. The plant is in a self-watering pot with a clear base so I can see the water level and the wick. A root started to come out of the bottom reaching for the water below. The root continued to grow so I knew the plant was alive so I just kept water available to it. One day a second 'trunk' sprouted from the side of the original trunk and green leaves began to form. Soon after, all the white leaves which had opened had died as had the part of the trunk above where the 'second trunk' had popped out.
    About a week ago I placed the tree in an east-facing window and, sadly, it seems that was too much for it in a single day and the three leaves shriveled and went limp.
    Now the plant is in a shadier part of the house and the leaves are a bit perkier but still sad looking, so will see what happens.
    I have a picture of it with all the white leaves if you want me to send it to you Scott.

    I have one that I grew along with two other that came from the same place and its albino, it’s been living for over a year and the reason i believe it’s still alive is because one of the leafs was able to produce chlorophyll on only half the leaf so it’s half white and bulky and half normal with the green part growing bigger. The new leafs after still grew even tho no chlorophyll was being produced. And just recently one of the two other I grew together randomly started producing a white leaf !! Which is so weird because it was just a normal looking one when randomly produced white leaves!!

  • @shanawebb919

    mine looks like that!! The reason I found this video, researching why it looks like that! I rooted a seed from a store bought avo. sprouted up, had one leaf then put on these little white nodes. I kept it under the grow light.. it then dropped the two leaves it had grown.. I still kept it going, and now it has 3 branches and several knew leaves coming out of the white parts! I think she's going to make it!! Thanks for such an informative video :) Subscribed!

    My avocado tree is tall and skinny! I transferred the seed from a pot that I had in the shade outside. After a few months I dug it out to see how the seed was doing and it had started to sprout! I was so happy. I transferred it to a bigger pot inside by a window that gets lots of sun and the results have been fantastic.

    I have one of these as well. It’s the 2nd one I’ve had. My first one died but the 2nd one is about 8 months to a year old and growing well. They grow thick and slow. I actually just had a pink albino avocado tree that was absolutely beautiful, although that one only lasted about 6 months but was amazing

      Did you grow the seed in water in the sun or a different method? Every time I grow mine in a plastic bag with a tiny bit of water in it, they grow white leaves and have a shorter/thicker stock. If I grow them in water with tooth picks, they grow really skinny and tall with green leaves... I always assumed the had to do with the humidity where the seed thinks it is in the ground/skin and needs to be stronger to burst out of it. Either way, they will eventually grow some green leaves out of the top elbow part where the white leaves are coming out of the trunk.
