The Thai Guava Plant is a special, high-yielding variety of guava, originally cultivated in Thailand. It is well-known for producing large, crisp, and sweet fruits with fewer seeds. Because of its early fruiting ability, high productivity, and low maintenance needs, it is highly favored by both home gardeners and commercial farmers.

Key Features:

• Fruit Size:
  Produces large, round to oval-shaped guavas, often bigger than regular varieties.

• Taste:
  The fruits have a mildly sweet, crunchy texture, making them ideal for fresh eating, juices, and desserts. They have fewer seeds compared to traditional guavas.

• Growth Rate:
  Fast-growing plant that starts producing fruit within 1 to 2 years, especially if propagated through grafting.

• High Yield:
  Known for its consistent, heavy fruit production.

• Adaptability:
  Thrives well in tropical and subtropical climates, but can also adapt to a variety of soil conditions.

Care & Maintenance:

1. Sunlight:
   Requires full sunlight exposure (6-8 hours daily) for optimal growth and fruit production.

2. Watering:
   Water regularly but avoid overwatering. Soil should be moist but well-drained.

3. Soil:
   Prefers fertile, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. A pH level between 5.5 to 7.0 is ideal.

4. Fertilization:
   Apply organic compost or balanced NPK fertilizer every 1-2 months to promote healthy growth and fruiting.

5. Pruning:
   Regular pruning helps maintain plant shape, encourages more branching, and improves fruit yield.

? Propagation:

• Commonly propagated by grafting, air layering, or stem cuttings to ensure early fruiting and retain parent characteristics.
• Seed propagation is possible but takes longer to bear fruit.

Benefits of Growing Thai Guava Plant:

• Rich in Vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants.
• Low maintenance and beginner-friendly.
• Can be grown in pots, gardens, or small spaces.
• Economically valuable for commercial farming due to its high yield.
• Tolerant to common pests and diseases.
