Amrud (Guava) Plant

 

The amrud plant is the fruit-bearing tree Guava, scientifically known as Psidium guajava.

 

Growing Conditions

 

• Sunlight: 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

• Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil with good organic matter.

• Water: Regular watering, especially during flowering and fruit development. Avoid waterlogging.

• Temperature: Grows best in warm tropical and subtropical climates (around 20–30°C).

 

Planting

 

• Plant in a location with full sun.

• Keep about 4–6 meters between trees if planting multiple plants.

• Mix compost or well-rotted manure into the soil before planting.

 

Care

 

• Prune lightly to maintain shape and improve air circulation.

• Apply balanced fertilizer several times during the growing season.

• Watch for pests such as fruit flies, aphids, and mealybugs.

 

Fruiting

 

• A grafted guava plant may start producing fruit in 2–4 years.

• Seed-grown plants often take longer, typically 4–8 years.
