Taiwan Pear Guava (F1 Sapling) - Product & Cultivation Guide (Code: QD41)

Introduction & Fruit Characteristics

The Taiwan Pear Guava (known locally as ổi lê Đài Loan) is a high-yielding, robust F1 variety that adapts easily to local conditions and bears fruit rapidly—just 8 months after planting.

  • Fruit Appearance: Shaped like a pear with a light green, smooth, attractive skin. Each fruit weighs approximately 250–400 grams.

  • Flavor & Quality: Features thick flesh, white pulp, a crunchy yet tender bite, and a characteristic guava aroma. Considered by many growers to have one of the best flavor profiles among available guava varieties. It contains a moderate amount of seeds, with an edible flesh ratio of 70% to 74%.

  • Yield & Lifecycle: Delivers high yields starting in the first year, reaching stabilized production of 25–50 tons per hectare by year 3. The timeline from flowering to harvest is exceptionally short at only about 2.5 months. Growers recommend harvesting when the fruit is about 70% ripe for the crunchiest texture.

Cultivation Guidelines

1. Planting Season

Guava can be planted nearly year-round with attentive care, though the ideal windows are spring (February–March) or during the rainy season when soil moisture is naturally sufficient.

2. Spacing and Density

  • Planting Method: Plant in rows.

  • Spacing: Maintain 3–4 meters between trees and 3–4 meters between rows, resulting in a density of 600 to 1,000 trees per hectare.

3. Soil Preparation, Basal Fertilization, and Planting

  • Soil Preparation: Dig pits measuring 60 x 60 x 60 cm or 80 x 80 x 80 cm.

  • Basal Fertilization: Apply 30 days prior to planting. Mix 5 kg of well-rotted organic manure + 1 kg of superphosphate + 100g of urea + 100g of potassium (or alternatively 2 kg of NPK fertilizer) per pit, blending thoroughly with the soil and filling the pit close to the brim.

  • Planting Standards & Steps:

    • Select vigorous grafted saplings with at least one growth flush measuring 15 cm or longer, free of tender new shoots.

    • Plant on cool, shaded days with adequate soil moisture. Use a sharp blade to remove the nursery bag carefully without breaking the root ball.

    • Place the sapling in the center of the pit, fill soil past the root collar, and pack firmly.

    • Water thoroughly immediately after planting to prevent dehydration and ensure solid root-to-soil contact.

4. Post-Planting Care

  • Moisture & Support: Mulch the base and water regularly until stable leaves emerge. In windy areas, use support stakes and tie securely to prevent root displacement while young.

  • Pinching & Pruning: When trees reach a height of 60–80 cm, pinch back the terminal tip to encourage lateral branching. Perform annual pruning after harvest on sunny days to eliminate unnecessary branches, such as water sprouts (cành vượt), thin twiggy branches (cành tăm), and diseased wood.
