This blog will be about the issues that come while the flowering process in pomegranate plants. Also, we face many difficulties in the transformation of flowers into fruits of this plant. Why is this so? What points should be kept in mind to avoid these problems? Get all your answers by reading below:
·         Pot/ Container Size:
Pomegranate is a plant that needs more space for its growth. It would be preferable to grow it on ground but if you are using a pot, make sure to take at least 14 inch pot as pomegranate roots penetrate deep in soil.
If you will take pot of less size then it will hinder the process of fruiting.
·         Process of growth:
When grown from seed, the plant will tend to take min. 5 to 6 years before showing fruiting. To skip this you all can directly buy a pomegranate plant from nursery and then grow it. Any grafted or tissue culture variety plant from nearest store or nursery will work for all the fruit lovers.
·         Type of soil:
Pomegranate loves the type of soil which has a high concentration of sand. If one mixes 20 % of sand in your normal plants then make this to 30 to 35 % in pomegranate plant. This will enhance the growth of its roots. So, sand-rich soil is the key.
·         Fertiliser:
Improper flowering or fruiting can also be because of a lack of proper nutrition. Potassium-rich fertilisers will give a boost to your plants then give some potassium-rich fertiliser to it. Banana peels are very rich source of potassium and are an organic solution for your plant.
Boil some banana peels in water and strain the liquid and you are good to GO! This liquid fertiliser has many benefits for flowering and fruiting plants and this shows guaranteed results
·         Watering:
During the flowering process, the plant doesn’t need a lot of water as this results in falling of flower bud. Watering it only once in alternate days will do the needful.
·         Tilling of soil and Vermi Compost:
Tilling of whole soil, then after leaving it for a day, adding vermi compost to it will also help in the transforming process of flowers. The Pomegranate plant loves vermi compost.

Follow all these pointers, and enjoy tasty pomegranates at your home. Let me know how much these points helped you by commenting down below.
