Growth environmental conditions of pomegranate

Pomegranate is very high in vitamins. The history of pomegranate cultivation in China was introduced from the Han Dynasty. After a long history of artificial cultivation and natural selection, there are many excellent cultivated varieties and many special varieties. Pomegranate is a kind of fruit that blossoms in summer, from which we can see that pomegranate likes a warm growth environment and can develop even at high temperature in summer. Let's take a look at the specific growth environment.

1. Temperature

Pomegranate likes a warm environment and is afraid of cold, but it can also survive winter in the subtropics, unless it is too cold, it is prone to frostbite. The tree can sprout at about 11 degrees; the flowering temperature should be between 24 and 26 degrees, so that pollination and fertilization is good; and 18 to 26 degrees are suitable for fruit growth and development. When the temperature is about 20 degrees during the day, the fruit will be sweeter if it drops a little at night. Growth stops when the temperature is below 10 degrees.

2. Soil

Loose requirements for soil, flat land, mountains, hills, can be planted, and even beaches can be planted, but mountains and hills are the most suitable. Requires loose soil, gravel land can also be, as long as ventilation, not so water and fertilizer conservation can also adapt, preferably sandy loam, soil pH between 4.5 and 8.2 can affect, the acidity and basicity span is relatively large, it is best to plant in the yellow soil.

3. Moisture

Due to the well-developed roots, you can see that the soil is relatively dry and then watered, do not water too hard, but will cause stagnant water to hurt the roots, or cause soil consolidation. About half a month to once a month watering, the result period watering increases, generally more than a week watering, do not flood irrigation, infiltration irrigation can. Drains should be dredged to ensure smooth drainage in the rainy season.

4. Nutrition

Like fertilizer, apply 2000 jin of base fertilizer per mu for the first time, and 1500 jin of farm manure per mu later. In April, topdressing solution fertilizer, combined with watering, to promote flowering, flowering period does not apply fertilizer, flower pomegranate fruit should be topdressing, fruit pomegranate does not need topdressing, topdressing is easy to produce fertilizer damage. Sometimes you need to trim off some weak branches and concentrate on nutrition.

5. Lighting

Growth needs plenty of sunlight, not very shady, more like light, so the planting density should not be too dense to ensure good ventilation and light, sufficient sunshine, strong leaf photosynthesis, can produce more organic nutrients to meet tree growth, flowering flower bud differentiation also needs a certain amount of light.

Pomegranate like light, temperature, suitable for planting in warm and humid areas, growth needs enough nutrition to maintain strong tree potential, for planting soil is preferably alkaline loose sandy loam.
