Ia this avocado normal?

Hey everyone
I just planted two avocado plants, they look pretty healthy but the leaves curled down a bit. Maybe it was the heat or mites? Please let me know what you think

Depending on how long ago you transplanted the plants it is probably transplant shock. And remember that they need full sun and will not do very well in a place like where the picture was taken.

Thank you Chuck! It was transplanted 2 days ago. It was very very hot here today, so I was scared it might die but I'll leave Somewhere with full sun

I would acclimate it slowly to its new home, not just thrust it into its new home. Try to acclimate it in a way that is as close as possible as to where you obtained the plant.

Thanks a lot for your insight Chuck heheh
I think the leaves look a bit burnt, but it just rained so I won't water them for now. You're right, it was not receiving any sunlight till now, so it must be transplant shock
It's making new leaves, I hope it gets more resistant with time

I'll come back in a couple months to post pictures

With him everything is fine, do not worry, he is so used to it. It looks very cool for you. The only thing he needs is more light

Looking forward to seeing pictures of your plants as the year progresses.
