Choyote Success!

I've been burying and killing choyote for the last couple of years. I've planted them all seasons, up, down and sideways, in sand, potting soil, and compost. Over and under watered, bright sun and shade, and the best I've ever done till recently is to have the plant die after it gets to about 2 inches high. My latest experiments now have produced plants about a foot tall, and growing. I sprouted fruit from the grocery in a dark place (2 - 3 weeks, until there was a couple inches of roots). Then placed one in water whole, and another we ate the fruit and put the seed in water. After about a week, I had both 8 - 10 inches high and yesterday put the last one in a 3 lb pot with soil. The seed did a little better than the whole fruit. They seem to prefer shade (as do I this time of year).
