Papaya plant, Red Lady, from the trees that succeeded in the Gulf countries, self-pollinating. It is preferable to cultivate in coastal areas or to humidify the planted area during summer. It is planted at the end of winter when the temperature does not drop below 23 degrees, and the best temperatures are from 35-40. In summer, it is preferable to cover it with agricultural mesh. It is best to plant in peat soil while maintaining soil moisture during the early growth of the plant. The plant is moved after reaching a height of 30 cm to the final location, away from strong air currents, and it is preferable not to move it more than once. It can also be planted in large pots of at least 100 liters. The distance between each papaya plant and the other is 2 meters. It takes two weeks to grow from seeds, and it may take longer depending on the temperature. The seed depth in the soil is about twice its size, approximately 1 cm, without pressing the soil after covering the seeds. It needs direct sunlight and always moist soil. It is preferable to fertilize the soil with compost in winter when the plant is 10 months or older. It produces fruit after a year in rich soil with enough sunlight. It will not produce fruit in poor soil. The plant tolerates a pH level up to 8.
