TERMS GROW, for those of you who are interested to make guava trees as a crop conditioning your home page, it helps you see how to plant the right tree guava and that economic value.

Climate and weather, you will be considered for placing seeds guava tree yard of your home, the following should be considered


  1. In the guava tree planting wind plays a role in pollination, but high winds can cause a loss in interest, so please find a place not too subject to strong winds,
  2. guava tree is a tropical plant and can be grown in sub-tropical with rainfall intensity required approximately 1000 to 2000 mm per year and evenly throughout the year.
  3. Guava tree can grow and bear fruit to the optimum temperature is around 23-28 degrees C in the daytime. Lack of sunlight cause a decrease in yield or less perfect (dwarf), ideally flowering and fruiting during the dry season is around the month of July to September are the fruit of the season occurred in November and February in the rainy season.
  4. Ambient air humidity is low because most of the trees growing in the lowlands and moderate. When the humidity is low, it means that the air is dry because of poor water vapor. These conditions are suitable for the growth of guava tree.
Planting media, though the land that we must have the following requirements:
  1. Guava tree can grow in all types of soil.
  2. Guava can grow well in soil that is fertile and fertile and nitrogen, organic matter or on the ground that the state of clay and a little sand.
  3. The degree of acidity (pH) is among 4.5 to 8.2 and when the pH is less than it is necessary to calcification in advance,
  4. Guava can thrive in tropical areas with elevations between 5-1200 meters above sea level.
Planting Seeds, How planting the seeds have germinated or in graft and
grafted by means gouged or open plastic attached to the planting medium by means of careful not to root so broken, and poke done with a depth of 5 cm, in order to grow more roots, cut the roots stump just a little in order to avoid excessive evaporation, and leaf width cut in half. Planted in nursery place at a distance of 4-5 meters from the wall or other plant, watering and routine 2 times a day, unless in the rainy season.

Media Processing Plant, As a condition of the land to prepare fruit orchards especially Guava soil should be fertile, many containing nitrogen, although the hilly areas where the land is fertile, loose soil necessary to plow or hoe enough with a depth of about 30 cm evenly. Then manure at a dose of 40 kg per square meters, and then to back beds with 1.20 m in length according to the size needed.
Then made waterways in order to overcome the lack of smooth of drainage system. Then fertilization by 2 cans of kerosene (4 kg) per square meter.

Calcification, calcification done when the terrain is derived from the pond and also the plains
newly formed which cannot be planted, the soil is acidic besides also not too fertile. How to dig a hole the size of 1 x 1 m, the bottom hole sprinkled with lime as much as 0.5 liters, in order to neutralize the pH of the soil until it reaches 4.5 to 8.2.

Fertilization, after a month of sowing lime manure with the order in the first month were given a dose of NPK 12:24:81 ounces, do the same with the second month of the first month, on the third month was given at a dose of NPK 15:15:15 ounces and months to 4 to the plants bear fruit, guava that remain fruitful use of manure is embedded as far as 30 cm from the stem of the plant.
Fertilization is the most important part that the user cannot be arbitrary, especially when using artificial fertilizers such as NPK, if made redundant will result in changes in the nature, of the fertilizer into the poison that would harm the plant itself.
Fertilization, to maintain soil fertility, fertilizer should be given periodically by the rules:
  1. Age 0-1 years of planting, give a mixture of 40 kg of manure, 50 kg TSP, 100 grams of urea and 20 grams of ZK. Sown way around the tree or to dig around the tree as deep as 30 cm and a width of among 40-50 cm, and enter the mixture then lid back. Plants can be fruitful 2 times a year.
  2. Fertilizing plants aged 1-3 years, after fruiting plants 2 times. mix fertilizer of TSP 250 grams and 250 grams of NPK, and so on is done every 3 months with TSP and NPK with the same dose.
  3. Fertilizing plants aged 3 years and above, if the growth of the plant is not good, looks at the growth lever trimmed branches, means other than the TSP and NPK with the same size manure crops need to be given as much as two cans of oil. Fertilization is done by making excavation surrounding the plant just below the tip of the canopy with a depth of about 30-40 cm, fertilizer immediately enter the excavation and replace the cover.
Weeding, During the 2 weeks after the seedlings originating from or grafting cuttings planted in the land of your home page, needed weeding the old branch trunk (brown) with young branches (green) when the fruit is too much, there are shoots in one branch can be reduced this is necessary so that the fruit be great and be sweet.
Special guava non seeds by limiting branching maximum of 3 pieces of fruit after 30-50 cm long do the trimming, after growing tertiary branches immediately bent into a horizontal direction, to stimulate flower buds and fruit will grow.

Reversal, In order to remain loose and fertile soil in the planting location of guava necessary reversal and tilling the soil to remain in a state of soft, done once a month until the plant can be considered to have a strong well

Pruning, so guava tree gets lush canopy, after 2 years old plants should be cut at the end of its branches. To obtain a balanced and useful canopy gives shape plants, and multiply, and set
crop production in order to be maintained and pruning also needs to be done after the harvest is over, a new canopy to emerge as a new interest in the emergence of the next harvest season with the results of increased or remained stable over its existence.

Irrigation and Watering
During the first two weeks after the seeds are planted from cuttings or grafting, watering twice a day, morning and afternoon. And next week watering is reduced to once a day. When the plants have grown stronger guava watering frequency can be reduced again, can be done when necessary. And if the rain is too heavy so try not stagnant water around the plant by making a channel to drain the water. In contrast to the soil looks dry season broke the required watering taste
and a day once every afternoon.
HARVEST

 Characteristics and Harvest, guava fruit trees usually aged 2-3 years will begin to bear fruit, in contrast with the pink nursery by grafting or cuttings will age faster 6 months was able to bear fruit, fruit that is ripe guava has characteristics yellowish green color and can be kissed from the smell and the last to feel the ripe guava, it is certain that the harvesting is done after dark green colored nuts become yellowish light in this condition then the nuts are ready for harvest.

How to Harvest, a good way of harvesting is learned along the stem, just ripe course, once done pruning trees so as not to be damaged, and can fruited again after 4 months.

Good luck, guava fruit tree planting is very exciting because guava fruit does not know the season, can bear fruit throughout the year in tropical area
