10 Best Flowering Shrubs for Your Yard

More profit on guava

Guava, which grows well in low water and drought-tolerant conditions, fetches good prices in the market. Thus the number of guava cultivating farmers is increasing. Guava grown in a well-drained, temperate climate is extremely tasty. Since guava does not require much maintenance, cultivation can only be done by the family. Lucknow-49 and Banaras varieties are suitable for cultivation in Guava. The Lucknow-49 variety is suitable for sale as a green fruit and as a Banaras fruit.

50 kg per tree:

On average 50 kg of pods is obtained from one tree per year. A kilo of Rs. It will cost no less than 15. For some time, a maximum of Rs. Up to 60 are for sale. On average, Rs. Available at a rate of 20. Rs per tree. Costs up to 250. Guava grows in all soil types with good drainage. June-July is the best season for planting. The spacing should be 8 feet per plant and 10 feet per row. Can be planted at intervals of 10 feet by 10 feet and 12 feet by 12 feet. 300 trees can be planted in an acre. The land should be well plowed and dug to a depth of one cubic foot at a spacing of 10 feet per row and eight feet per plant. Digging pits during this interval will yield 545 pints per acre. Mix 2 kg of manure and a quarter kg of neem cake in each hole and plant the plant. Irrigate the weed area to a non-wetting extent for 3 months.

Then irrigate once in 15 days.

When the tree has no pods, it can be irrigated at least once in 20 days. Drip irrigation is much better than canal irrigation. When the tree has pinches and pods, it is mandatory to irrigate once in 15 days. Apply 200 liters of bio-fertilizer per acre in water during each irrigation. When the plant reaches a height of one and a half feet, the tip should be cut off. Thus, the plant divides into a few branches. The pods are at arm's length. The plants should be transplanted twice a year without raising them above the specified level. Flowers should be shed when they start flowering 5 months after planting. Flowers should be shed for at least 2 years. Properly covered, it will withstand a lot of adverse conditions. Can hold pinch for more than 2 years.

Before preventing the disease:

The guava tree is most affected by the moth. Pest control can be achieved by spraying the trees once in 15 days at the rate of 300 ml of Panchakavya per 10 liters of water. Subsequently, in case of pest infestation, mix 1.5 liters of Panchakavya, 3 liters of Jivamirtham, and 500 ml of neem oil in 200 liters of water and spray to soak the whole tree. Guava is also prone to nematode infestation. The nematode can be controlled to some extent by planting centaury plants around each tree. In the natural method of cultivation, most of the nematodes do not attack the nematode. Doing so will control the nematode. The pods are good shiny and can be harvested when they start to darken slightly from dark green.

The way to reduce the seeds in the guava 

Guava is one of the fruits that can bring good returns with low investment. Can grow in low rainfall, saline and infertile soils, stagnant land, and dry land. Fruits twice a year. Branches should not extend up to one meter above ground level. Then allow 3 or 4 branches at regular intervals. Remove branches that appear at the base. The young stems bloom in September, October and February, and March. Aged, productive trees should be pruned to a height of 30 cm above the ground. Flowers appear on the new branches that sprout from them. Zinc deficiency occurs when the leaves are yellow between the narrow veins and the spacing between the nodes is reduced. Dissolve 560 g of zinc sulfate and 350 g of lime in 72 liters of water and spray twice on the trees at intervals of 15 to 30 days. If the leaves are pale and smoky, dissolve 25 g each of zinc sulfate, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, and 12.5 g of copper sulfate and ferrous sulfate in 5 liters of water and spray to form new shoots. Spray at the time of flowering and fruiting again after one month. If stunted fruits are found, dissolve 3 g of borax in one liter of water and spray. The higher the number of seeds in the fruit, the lower the price in the market. To reduce the number of seeds and improve the quality, mix 100 mg of salicylic acid in one liter of water and spray on the unripe flower buds. Soak the flower buds in this liquid

Techniques to improve guava production

Tree bending:

In some mature guava trees (about 10 to 15 years) the branches will grow taller and taller, reducing productivity. To fix this the branches can be bent and their tip part buried in the soil to a depth of one foot and a stone placed on top of them so that they do not move upwards. Or you can tie it with heavy sticks in the soil beforehand. This stimulates the buds in the nuclei of the branches to produce larger flowers and higher-quality fruits.

Leveling Trees:

The oldest and most productive trees should be pruned to a height of 30 cm above ground level. Later new shoots sprout forth and flowers in large numbers grow on it. Production will also improve.

Micronutrient deficiency:

Zinc deficiency can cause narrowing of the nerves, causing the plants to look like boxwood. This defect is often found in lands with poor drainage. To avoid these, 500 g of zinc sulfate and 350 g of lime can be dissolved in 72 liters of water and sprayed twice on the trees at intervals of 15 to 30 days to avoid micronutrient deficiency. In addition to zinc, magnesium, manganese, copper, and iron deficiency are sometimes found. Symptoms include dry leaves, dry edges, and scaly scars.

To remedy this, 25 percent of zinc sulfate, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, 12.5 g copper sulfate, and ferrous sulfate can be dissolved in 5 liters of water and sprayed once in a while when new shoots appear on the leaves and once a month thereafter. Boron micronutrient deficiency can lead to stunted growth and reduced fruit size. Further bursting of the fruit will appear and reduce the quality of the fruit itself. To control this, 0.5% borax (3 g borax in 1 liter of water) can be dissolved and sprayed.
