About those Guavas - rotten or not!
I was thinking if you care to purchase some worms ( i like Eisenia fetida, or "red wigglers") you could practice vermiculture and create your own earth worm castings for use in your garden(s).
The fetida will eat virtually anything, including all of your kitchen scraps, ripe guava, rotten guava, and pre-mature guavas! Also, Chickens love to eat the fetidas - it's practically caviar to them! Also the earth worm castings the fetida make are often referred to as the "black gold" of fertilizers! I remember hearing about a puna local who had their own farm( maybe someone on punaweb recalls), but they shouldn't be hard to find and are rather inexpensive! Hope you find a good use for all that guava rather responsible of you to try and not waste any!
Cheers
