today the last leaf dropped; the avocado stem is naked. there has been progress though: a new axillary bud has appeared just below the apical one, which is showing a leaf primordium (notice the hook in picture below). new leaves should come out of these buds. for now i will keep the plant warm and watered and give it lots of light. also, i fed it a serving of (15,15,18) fertilizer today. we'll see how the recovery goes.
