Rotation For Farming

• Papaya trees are rotated when grown as a crop in order to help ease the stress and pressure that can be placed on the soil by them. This prevents the soil from deteriorating.
  
  

Rotation for Home

• When growing a potted papaya tree it is important to rotate the potted tree in order for it to attain even sunlight.
  
  

Root Rot

• This occurs when too much moisture is obtained by the soil. It can be caused by over watering or by too much rain in the area.
  
  

Prevention

• Root rot can be prevented by making sure that the soil in which the papaya tree has been planted is light and well-drained.
  
  

Considerations

• During the summer months it is important to keep the soil moist, but not over watered when dealing with a home grown papaya tree. In the winter months it is important to keep the soil dry.
