Boost Guava Yield in February: Essential Tips for Pruning, Nutrition & Care

• Lightly prune guava trees in mid to late February, removing dry, diseased, and tangled branches to improve sunlight and air circulation.
• Apply 20-25 kg of farmyard manure and 500 grams of NPK per tree, creating a ring 2-3 feet from the trunk for optimal nutrient absorption.
• Ensure proper irrigation in February to prevent flower drop, avoiding waterlogging; drip irrigation is recommended.
• Monitor for pests like mealybugs and bark-eating insects, applying grease bands or insecticide powder; use fungicides for diseases.
• For new orchards, deep-plow, dig pits (6x6m or 3x3m for high-density), and add neem cake and superphosphate; regularly weed and mulch existing trees.
