Black spots on Guava fruit

Namasthe Everyone . We have a Guava farm near Punganur, Chittor (Dist), Andhra pradesh. Guava trees age is around 25 years. From last year February 2015 we are practicing Sri Subhas Palekar Ji Natural farming practices. We are giving Jeevamrutham to the farm whenever we give water. When compared to earlier years we are seeing good results in trees.

In last year crop we saw a decease for Guava fruit .  Small dots will be farmed on top of the fruit and it will grow along with fruit. So  to avoid this problem, last year we removed some of the Guava fruits during initial stage.  Last year 20 – 25 % of the crop has this decease. This year also we do see this problem and it is occurring again. We wanted to know the natural remedies for this problem. If someone faced this problem earlier, then please suggest what you have done to avoid this problem

I contacted some of the experienced people regarding this and they suggested to use

  • Asafoetida (Inguva — in Telugu ) with buttermilk .
  • Some other person suggested to use Jeevamutham itself

Please suggest if you have encountered this issue and how did you resolve. We are planning to try above methods in coming few days.
