Choose pots that are at least 10-12 inches in diameter and have good drainage holes to prevent waterlogging. Fill them with a well-draining potting mix suitable for fruit trees.

Step 2: Transplant Seedlings

Create a small hole in the potting mix’s center and gently place the germinated guava seedling with the root pointing downward into the hole. Carefully cover the seedling with soil.

Step 3: Watering

Water the newly transplanted seedlings thoroughly and maintain consistent moisture. Guavas appreciate a slightly humid environment, so avoid overwatering.

Once your guava seedlings are established, start applying balanced, slow-release fertilizer to provide the essential nutrients they need.

2. Watering: Consistently water your guava tree to maintain even moisture. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged.

3. Pruning: Regularly prune your guava tree to maintain its shape, remove dead or diseased branches, and encourage new growth.

4. Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for common guava pests like fruit flies and aphids. If needed, apply appropriate treatments.

5. Frost Protection: If you reside in a cooler climate, provide frost protection for your guava during winter months. Move the pots indoors or use frost cloth to shield the tree from freezing temperatures.
