I am interested too. Is it the camera angle, or do the the fruits seem to be planted at different orientations in the two containers. Does which side is up not matter?

 

Good question. This is how I have been doing it:

 

1. The cracked end up. This is the end the sprouting and rooting happens.

2. You can't tell whether it's the right side or the left side of the crack where the root and sprout come out, so I plant the fruit vertical.

3. Once I can see which side the roots come out, then I plant them sideways.

 

And by the way, chayote squash is worth planting because you can eat the fruits as well as the leaves. You can get up to 150 fruits per plant.
