How to Water common guava?

Originating from tropical regions, guava thrives in environments with high humidity and consistent moisture. It exhibits moderate drought tolerance but flourishes when its soil is kept evenly moist without waterlogging. Watering once every 1-2 weeks suffices to maintain its hydration needs. Typically grown outdoors due to its preference for warm climates, guava benefits significantly from mulching, which helps retain soil moisture and mimics the natural leaf litter of its native habitat.
