The field is ought to be profoundly plowed, cross plowed, harrowed and evened out prior to burrowing pits. The pits of around 0.6 m x 0.6m x0.6 m dimensions are ought to be burrowed before the monsoon.

After around 15-20 days, each pit is supposed to be filled up with soil and blended in with 20 kg of natural/manure and about 500 g of superphosphate.

In soils having really poor quality, the pit size can be larger, around 1m x 1m x 1m, and a larger number of organic excrements might be needed.

The beginning of the monsoon is an ideal opportunity to begin planting.

Planting is done during the rainy season. June-July is the ideal time for planting the layers and seedling.

Spacing for guava is usually, 6m x 6m, obliging about 112 plants/section of land. Nonetheless, it is usually planted with a distance of 3.6 m to 5.4m (12’ to 18’). Conventional plantation spaces in certain pieces of the nation range even up to 5.4 to 7.0m (18′ to 23′). By expanding the plantation density, efficiency can be expanded.

Irrigation

Typically, an irrigation water system isn’t needed in guava estate. However, in the beginning, phase, youthful guava plants expect 8 to 10 irrigations in a single year. Hand watering is essential for the summers in dry regions and on light soils.

Spraying the trees with 0.45 kg zinc sulfate and 0.34 kg slaked lime dissolved in 72.74 l (16 gallons) of water cures Zn deficiency. Pre-blossoming application with 0.4% Boric Acid and 0.3% Zinc Sulfate advances and increases the yield and fruit production size. Showering of copper sulfate at 0.2 to 0.4% advances the development and yields of guava fruit.

Harvesting

Grafted, Budded or layered guava trees begin bearing at 2 years old to 3 years. Seedling trees expect 4 to 5 years to bear. The guava can’t be held on the tree in the ready stage. In this way, it ought to be picked promptly when it is full-grown.
