Red guava growing model
Mr. Huynh Van Khoe, residing in Hamlet 1, Phu Nhuan Commune, Ben Tre City, is one of the typical farmers who quickly grasped market demand, diligently learned from the experience of predecessors and succeeded with the red-fleshed guava growing model.
According to him, red-fleshed guava is an easy-to-grow tree that is not picky about soil and does not require much care. Red-fleshed guava usually produces two crops a year. The favorable season is around March and April. In the favorable season, guava fruit is large, beautiful, and of good quality, but the price is usually not high. The off-season is usually from August to September onwards when the weather starts to get cold.
The off-season requires more care for guava trees to produce good quality fruit. To produce large and abundant guava fruit, the most important thing is to create a canopy for the tree so that it has enough strength.
After each harvest, fertilize with Urea to stimulate the root system. When the tree begins to grow new leaves, fertilize with NPK. Finally, when the guava begins to flower and bear young fruit, fertilize with Dau Trau fertilizer. Fertilize in moderate amounts depending on whether the tree is large or small.
