ground<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;Proceed&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>in late spring,<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;when all risk

avocado tree in a pot<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;, make sure&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>the bottom is draining<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;by pouring clay pebbles.&nbsp;Directly in the garden, your soil shouldn&#8217;t be too compacted.&nbsp;Watering must&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>be regular but not excessive<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;!&nbsp;Outdoors, it loves full sun from&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>May to September<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;Likewise, when&nbsp;&nbsp;indoors&nbsp;&nbsp;: approach&nbsp;&nbsp;<strong>the avocado tree<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;from a window with a light veil so that the sun&#8217;s rays do not damage it.&nbsp;Using a nebulizer, also wet the leaves with&nbsp;&nbsp;non-calcareous water&nbsp;&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"
