@aleisterj.r8848 what zone are you in? I world leave leaves on and treat it with a fungicide. Some type yes so baby it needs leaves. But hard to tell with no pictures. I hope it recovers. Good luck

@timt6860 that's perfect idea!! And the fruit I've you have one fresh ripped off your tree. You will never go back to store bought ones. Wish you all the best...

I am in zone 8A in NC. I have 20 papaya in pots that are around 5 feet tall, two of them are 7 feet tall. I'll be putting them in my sunroom and planting them all out in the garden in the spring to see if they will produce large quantities before the frost gets them in the fall. I'm thinking I can make them an annual crop, as long as I get 4-5 foot plants in pots the year before I plant them out. Gives them a huge head start. Good luck to you!

@hannah20071000 oh, let me know how it goes. I thought they needed more time to mature to produce fruit. I may have to treat them as annuals, too.

@@simplegardening6196 You can get around 40 lbs of fruit off a papaya in zone 8 if you can get them to 4-5 feet in the year before. A 3 gallon pot, fertilizing a couple times is sufficient. I have a few papaya in 3 gallon pots that are blooming now and may set a fruit or two before the winter comes here in zone 8A. They won't grow any more and go dormant. I cease watering them except in very tiny amounts to prevent root rot. THen, the following spring when night time temps do not go below 40, plant them in a super sunny spot. They grow amazingly fast and will set fruit within a month or two. They will continue to do so until the winter. Many fruits will be able to be picked ripe, but you can pick the green ones too and eat them. I have three in the ground near my brick chimney on the south side of the house. I heat wiht wood and the brick stays over 80 degrees. I'm really hoping that if I cover them they will be able to remain in ground all winter. These three will do so much better than the others and I may get 200 lbs of fruit off those three plants next summer if they survive.

I'm in Carrollton GA area. can meet up if interested.

Thank you! Cheers! I wish you best luck.

And by far, the best tasting guava yet. I love this variety.

@@simplegardening6196 good good

You can buy them online etsy sells them. I got mine from a local family nursery in Florida.

@robinwine3957 they were at homedepot. But I have not seen them for awhile.

@@robinwine3957 they are so beautiful

@@KateBates22zabu aww...I'm sorry what happened?

@@simplegardening6196 I took in an 11yo chichiuaua mix who's family went homeless. He passed 2 weeks after his 16th birthday. I still miss him every day. My family won't help me get another "bc they just die."

@@KateBates22zabu oh I am sorry to hear. It sounds like you gave him a long and happy life!!! They do make a lasting imprint in our hearts for sure. Xoxo

Yes !!! Seems simple enough but you do have to watch fir root rot. So that's why it's always hard to recommend the right medium for each viewer since we all garden in different zones with different level of humidity. They root very easy. Best of luck to you.

@blaqfish i order them from Amazon. Good luck...thank you for stopping by.

Hi. Thank you for stopping by. No, it's much better to remove dead or dying leaves. You can also remove the leaves for easier transplant. but I still had time for growth and didn't want to cut back all the leaves. I wanted it to take in as much neutriient as possible.

Thank you so much!

Hi. I am not sure if I understand your question. But if I am reading it right. The hybrid papaya will bear fruit without having another plant nearby to fertilize it. The old plants require 2 plants to near fruit. The hybrid only needs one, and it self pollinate.

@@simplegardening6196 I mean, will hybrid bear fruits even if it's a male tree? Btw, thank you for your response.

@khristinabell7099 welcome new gardener!! Glad you can join us. We are all in away new gardeners as we always learn and improve ourselves. I wish you great success. I had 4 successes out of all those seeds. I did not do stratification. Aube if I did I may have more success? I put them in the ground and weed eaten one the other day. But the other ones are still doing good. The process is easy but takes patient from seed to full plant.

They look like a smaller version of the middle pot i assume time is what gave it a thicker stalk?

@thatonechick6747 mine tend to only brown when it gets too much sun and needs more water. I'm sorry to hear that your leaves keep turning color like that. I would give it more shade u less it's already in the shade area, then I would give it water and make sure it drains well. Five fertilizer as well. Although they don't really flower, they are vigor grower and still need food.

@thatonechick6747 yes time gives it the thicker stalk. 😀

Hi. I use miracle grow and add in some fine pine mulch to help with the drainage since it's humid where I live. Moving to zone 8a, it still gets a few days if below freezing, and I don't want to risk it, so I will leave it in its pot. Good luck with yours!!!

@kchedville hi.. oh I have heard that people lost their taste with covid. That would be crazy to experience. I hope your taste fully comes back!!!. Qhat is a maypot? My june plum is also dropping fruit before fully ripening. I am not sue why either. May be my watering and not being consistent. I will set more of a schedule next year to see if that is the case. But I water the guava same as last year and they were amazing. I would wait until winter or when all your fruits have ripped and you get to collect. Transplanting in the middle of fruiting tends to stress them out. The Thai guava I got from a local mom and pop nursery. It appears she grew them from seed. I know there are some being sold on etsy as well. If they fruit. I can save some seed and start them and grow maybe I can sell a few on marketplace. I'll keep you posted if your interested. What zone do you garden in?

@@simplegardening6196 Thanks Simple, I'll wait till winter then. Maypop is also Purple Passion Fruit (Passiflora incarnata). I bought two 6 inche plants on line - put them in the ground and within 3 months they were over 8 feet tall and with 18 Fruit growing on them.. I think they grew much faster than my Banana Plants or Bamboo. And they are cold hardy - if winter kills the tops of them they say they always come back from the underground roots when summer comes. My new Grow Zone is 9a, use to be 8b. I don't think it will make that much of a Difference -- past winter was a pretty cold one -- and summer still seems to be the same (HOT and Humid) , specially in August.

@Joseph-u6d those are the flowers that bring back warm memories!!! Thank you for stopping by. Have a great weekend.

Yes it will push out new growth from the node. I am realizing I need to grow mine higher as the dogs tend to like my fruit too. If they can reach the fruit it's fair game for them. Lol. Good luck!!!

@@simplegardening6196 thanks for the help!

Hi. Thank you for stopping by. Yes, I can do an update. I am sorry, sometimes I do so many things that I forgot to update after the initial video. I will continue to improve in this area. I hope you have success in your garden.

Hi Ken. Sadly, it died. That fall/ winter, we moved to our 25 area, and it died during the moving process as I didn't have adequate shelter for it. I hope to try again.

@@simplegardening6196 Do you know if it rooted?

@MasterKenfucius I dont....by the time I check on it in the early spring it was all mushy from the wet cold damn humidity plus the extreme cold weather. Everything was brown so I was ubale to determine if it even had roots.
