How to grow papaya on a terrace?

Papaya grows fast — fruits in 8–10 months from seed. Choose dwarf varieties: Red Lady, Pusa Dwarf, Honey Dew. Use a 25-litre container. Full sun essential. Water deeply every 2–3 days; papaya hates waterlogged roots. Feed with NPK 19:19:19 monthly. Grow 2–3 plants per bag initially — you need at least one female or hermaphrodite plant. Papaya is a heavy feeder; supplement with potassium during fruiting.
