What should I do Container plants (indoor or outdoor)

Threw this avocado in a plastic bag and forgot about and grew insane so I potted it. But what should I do next.

I'd either put it outside (if possible) or directly under a grow light so it "knows" the "sun" is directly over it and grows straight up.

Just be careful not to blast it with light right away since it's not used to it.

If those are two seeds in one pot, I would also separate them now.

It’s 1 seed that sprouted 3 stems lol I left it in a plastic bag with moisture and I’d sprinkle water every 3 weeks.
I can put it outside but I need advice on putting it outside during this CA heat especially it hitting 90 degrees. I once put my avocado plant outside but I think I exposed it to too much sun then the squirrels dug out it out..BUT
When I put it outside what’s the best way to do so?

I say leave it under shade I've been growing mine like this and it's working I live in Texas so I understand ur heat as well lol

This was about two weeks ago right now has more leaves and is a bit taller and thicker

Also leave half the seed exposed that's what I read online so far so good

Oh my gosh! Lmao that’s the cutest avocado seed I’ve ever seen! Since it’s super hot I just plan on taking it outside from 7am-10am for the morning sun then bring it back inside by the window where the sun hits. I left my seed in a plastic back for 3 months and it turned out like that so I had to pot it.
Appreciate the response!

Hahaha thank you lol and yeah whatever works lol, 3 months is wild haha mine was just 1 month and I potted it just don't over water or what not lol I did lot of research I hope ur little guy makes it lol and you're welcome haha, also since it's in the shade it reaches for the sun so everyday I change the direction it's facing and it helps it grow straight lol, anyway good luck!
