I have tried to make vegetative propagation on the papaya top branch. But seems like it makes the branch weak. As the papaya fruit on the top were quite heavy in weight. Which end up for it to break today.

Got one almost ripe papaya. The weight is 1,930 gm. The part that break is the part where I tried to make vegetative propagation (tut).

| I am climbing stairs to cover the broken part from rain. |
Can see the new flower buds under the vegetative propagation (
tut) part. I have circled them in
red coloured circle.

I am still keeping the papaya branch as it is as it already bear fruit buds on it. Which makes a lot of sense for me to keep and care for the papaya tree. Since the fruit quality produces by it also very good. As you can see from top pictures, Dell also enjoy eating the papaya fruit from the broken papaya branch. More reason to keep and care for it.
I am covering the opened broken papaya trunk with plastic in order to protect it from rain. As there is a hole in the middle of the papaya trunk. Which could end up with rotten tree trunk if this step is not taken.
Till then, be safe while climbing stairs to mend your plants at home. Especially when you are doing things alone.
