The geography and botany problems of irreducible non-spin symplectic 4-manifolds with a choice of fundamental group from $\{{\mathbb{Z}}_p, {\mathbb{Z}}_p\oplus {\mathbb{Z}}_q, {\mathbb{Z}}, {\mathbb{Z}}\oplus {\mathbb{Z}}_p, {\mathbb{Z}}\oplus {\mathbb{Z}}\}$ are studied by building upon the recent progress obtained on the simply connected realm. Results on the botany of simply connected 4-manifolds not available in the literature are extended.
