Avocado seed flotation device

This one is even less serious than the previous project, but here goes.

More or less at the same time as Kirill finished writing his story Flor, I’ve started an avocado seed germination project. The illustration in the story was drawn from life. I was really surprised how fast it went – the seed cracked next day already, and a little root appeared within two or three days. We, along with all of Spain, were in quarantine situation, so a lot of attention was paid to small things. The speed may have something to do with the fact that the pear was local, ripe and that we live in appropriate climate.
