When they are ready to be potted up in one gallons I am going to offer them for free to the members. I don't have Thia papaya seeds yet but I will collect them and do the same.
The guava we have in the Philippines are sweet. The inside turns red and a bit soft on the outside. That's the time when it's ready for harvest.
