Help With Indoor Avocado Plant

Question

Hi! I live in Sweden and this is the first time I manage to grow an indoor avocado plant after potting from a glass (see photo, this is about a 1.5 years old plant), and I wanted to ask how best to take care of it. What kind of fertilizer would it need and how often, how do I know when it’s ready to repot and -most importantly- how do I repot? Is it enough to just choose a pot with twice the diameter of the current one and fill with standard soil for vegetables? Thank you so much!

Thank you for sending us your gardening question. Here is info on avocado care and repotting. Normally, just go up one or two pot sizes. Use well draining soil for avocados such as a commercial mix for cacti and succulents.
