Choosing a container
Choose a very large 60 x 75 Centimetre size container for growing Papaya in pots, also, ensure there are enough drainage holes in the bottom before planting. A pot that is around 45-57 Centimetres in diameter and 30-38 Centimetres deep should be sufficient.
Once the seedlings germinate sow them directly in a spot as papayas have less success rate when transplanted.
Prepare the ground well before planting. Make a hole in soil that is of the same depth as of rootball of the plant but twice wide. Apply slow release 16-48-0, 18-46-0 or balanced 15-15-15 fertilizer according to the product instruction at the base of the hole, fill it with a thin layer of soil to prevent the plant roots from coming in direct contact with the fertilizer.
The base of each plant should be 1 cm above ground level, to prevent rot at the stem base. After transplanting, a fungicide can be applied to ensure greater protection especially if planting during the rainy season.
How to Grow Papaya Tree in Cold Climate
Papaya is a tropical fruit tree but if you are thinking to plant it in a temperate climate plant it in a large pot and try to overwinter it in a well-protected area, like a greenhouse. Another way is to start the seeds in Autumn, or in early spring indoors. Once the temperature soars up to plant the seedlings outside. The tree will grow until the frost comes and get killed but there is a possibility that you’ll get some juicy papayas.
Requirements for Growing Papaya TreeTemperature
Papaya is one of the easiest fruit trees you can grow the optimum temperature for growing papaya ranges between 20 to 30 C.
Low temperatures lead to a slow growth of the plant and higher temperatures cause low production. However, papaya tree can bear cold temperature down to 0 C for a short period of time. In extremely high tropical temperatures and in heat waves and droughts, flower buds fall and the plant suspends its growth.
Location
The papaya needs plenty of sun due to its high photosynthetic activity. It is impossible to grow it in lack of sunlight. One more thing you need to keep in mind when choosing a location for growing papaya trees that they are not strong and must not be planted in a windy spot.
Spacing
Papaya trees must be spaced 2.5 - 3.0 Metres apart from each other.
Soil
The main characteristics of soil for growing a papaya tree are following:
Loose and moist with good drainage.
High organic matter content.
A pH level around 5.5 to 7
