I had a hard time with growing the pits by suspending them over water with toothpicks. then I put a pit into a pot 3/4 covered by soil and watered it weekly. Tada! I have repotted it now that the roots were coming through the drainage holes. I also added another pit to the pot, the stem is about 6 inches high with 5 leaves and a second stem is emerging. In nature, they fall into soil, try it! Good luck.
