Pineapple Guava SeedS (Acca sellowiana) Fruit Tree Shrub-Perennial ! CARIBBEAN GARDEN SEED

Guava plants are native to the tropical and subtropical Americas and will do best in conditions that mimic those regions. They like moderately warm, humid conditions and react badly to any hint of cold or to desert-like heat. Potted plants can grow well on a warm patio or deck during the warmer months, then moved indoors for the winter.

When grown indoors, guavas like a bit more heat and humidity than the typical indoor home environment, so you may find that it’s best to grow them in a sunroom or greenhouse, where temperatures and humidity can be controlled. A room dedicated to heat-loving plants can also be a good option, provided it has enough sunlight.

Light

Guava plants want as much full sun as you can give them. Move your sprouted guava to a very sunny place as soon as possible. During summer, move them outside to a sunny patio. In the winter, move inside to the brightest location possible.

A rich typical potting mix will do fine for guava plants. Good drainage is important to prevent the roots from rotting.

Water

Provide guava plants with regular water during the growing season, and reduce watering somewhat during the winter.

Temperature and Humidity

Guavas are warm-weather plants that don’t react well to cold. Young plants may succumb to even the hint of frost, so make sure to move patio plants indoors before well before the weather turns chilly. Mature plants may survive a touch of frost now and then, but only in the warmest climates can these plants remain on a patio year-round.

Guava plants like relatively humid conditions and don’t grow well in desert-like environments, such as that found in outdoor Arizona. At the same time, extremely humid, jungle-like conditions can foster rust fungus on the leaves.

Fertilizer

Feed guava with a weak liquid fertilizer throughout the growing season, but withhold feeding during the winter months.

How to Grow
1
Place guava seeds in a pot of boiling water, and boil for five minutes to break seed dormancy and speed germination.
2
Fill a 4-inch nursery pot with soilless seed-starting mix.
3
Press one guava seed into the center of the pot. Use your thumb to gently press the seed under the soilless mix, and cover it with 1/8 to 1/4 inch of the mixture.
4
Soak the pot with water using a gentle misting spray or the soak setting on the hose to avoid disrupting the seed.
5
Place the pot in a warm place with a temperature of 65 degrees Fahrenheit or above. Guava seeds germinate in two to eight weeks.
6
Keep the soilless mix moist by watering when the top of the soil starts to feel dry under your finger.
