Growing Guava at Home in Pots: The Secret to an Abundant Harvest (Page 2 ) | November 14, 2023

Materials You’ll Need:

1. Guava seeds
2. Moist paper towel
3. Plastic ziplock bag

Step 1: Prepare the Paper Towel

Lay the guava seeds on a moist paper towel. It should be damp but not overly wet, and ensure the seeds are spaced apart.

Step 2: Fold the Paper Towel

Fold the paper towel over the seeds, creating a seed packet.

Step 3: Seal in a Ziplock Bag

Place the folded paper towel with seeds inside a plastic ziplock bag and seal it. This creates a controlled environment for germination.

Step 4: Store in a Warm Place

Position the sealed ziplock bag in a warm, well-lit area, such as a windowsill or near a heat source. Guava seeds typically germinate best in temperatures between 75°F to 85°F (24°C to 29°C).

Step 5: Monitor and Wait

Check the seeds regularly to maintain the paper towel’s moisture. Germination can take between 2 to 8 weeks, so patience is essential.

Planting Your Guava Seedlings in Pots

Once your guava seeds have sprouted and developed a small root, they are ready for transplantation into pots.

Materials You’ll Need:

1. Guava seedlings
2. Potting mix
3. Pots with drainage holes
