Avocado plants can be started in soil or water. Pits started in soil produce a much more durable and long lasting plant. Before starting the plant, soak the pit overnight in water. If you intend to start the plant in soil, pot it, large end down, in a large clay pot in light sandy soil. The pit should be placed about one-half inch below the soil surface

It does not matter, and I've seen them sprouting out of either end what is important is to make sure the seed is at least 1/2" submerged at all times. I've seen many sprouted Avocado seeds, but no one has turned them into an Avocado tree!

If you are trying to get it to root, put the pointed end up.
