Growing location: pomegranates like plenty of sunlight. When there is insufficient sunlight, the plant not only becomes weak and leggy, but also flowers poorly. However, it is tolerant of both drought and cold, so when choosing a growing location, you should choose one with full sun. It should be noted that pomegranates do not tolerate waterlogging and cannot be grown in low-lying, waterlogged land.
Soil: pomegranates are not demanding about soil; any fertile soil will do for growing them, and well-drained soil helps pomegranates grow well.
Watering: pomegranates tolerate drought but not waterlogging. Especially during the seedling stage and in winter, water evaporation is not strong, so watering should be reduced, and you should water only when the potting soil is dry. In a dry summer, watering once a day is enough.
Fertilizing: pomegranates like fertilizer, but organic fertilizers should be the main type used, such as bone meal and farmyard manure. The suitable period is from after the Beginning of Spring to the Autumn Equinox, applying once a month, and stop fertilizing during the flowering period to prevent flowers from dropping.
