Can avocado be grown in the north? Where is it suitable for planting?

Avocados grown in the north

Avocado cannot be grown in the north because it is a tropical plant and has high requirements for the temperature of the growing environment. It is suitable for living in an environment between 25-30 degrees. The lowest acceptable temperature is around 0 degrees. The temperature in the north is far below this level in winter. If planted in the north, the avocado seedlings will be frozen to death.

Avocado growing regions

Avocados are native to Central America. California is the world's largest avocado producer. Avocados are mostly grown in tropical and subtropical regions.

Avocados are also grown in my country, mostly in the southern coastal areas. There are small amounts of them grown in Guangdong, Hainan, Fujian, Guangxi, Taiwan, Yunnan and Sichuan. However, due to rainfall and temperature reasons, there are few places in my country suitable for growing avocados.

How to grow avocados

First, you need to buy avocado seeds with fuller fruits. After processing, place the seeds with the pointed end facing up in the soil, and then cover the seeds with a layer of soil. The sowing site must be chosen in a place with sufficient light, and water it once every 7 hours or so. Usually, it will germinate and grow seedlings in about 14 days.
