Avocado Farm?

Brent Weaver - Saturday, August 14, 2010

A few weeks ago, Carol decided that we needed some greenery in the office. Instead of buying plants for the office, she slowly consumed several avocados at home and one-by-one brought us each a couple of seeds for us to grow our own plants on our desks.

So for the past few weeks, each of us has cared for at least one and up to three seeds in either shot glasses or plastic cups. We have had a few comments from clients walking through seeing shot glasses everywhere, so I just wanted to set the record straight that we are just experimenting with some low-level horticulture.

Here is the progress so far...


The best of my three...nice split, but been pretty lack in activity the last week or so...


Carol's = first to show solid green


Chad has nice splitage and some sparse downward growth


Erick's has some narrow splitage, but solid downward root growth


Steve's has some amazing curling root growth, however, I think he needs to upgrade from the shot glass


Waller's for sure has the most impressive root structure...might be time to start adding soil

So what does this have to do with web design? Nothing, but perhaps eventually we'll have our clients over for some home-made guac.
