Potted pomegranates have a strong ability to survive, so it is best to use soil that is permeable and has certain nutrients.

If not, you can also dig some garden soil, field soil, river pond mud, or use the original old potting soil mixed with coal ash and cake fertilizer residue, so as to continue to supplement nutrients for plant growth.

Potted pomegranates prefer soil with high organic matter content, fertility, good fertilizer retention, good air permeability and water permeability. The soil can be mixed with leaf mold, garden soil, and sandy soil in a ratio of 1:1:1, and then add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer to ensure that there are sufficient nutrients in the soil.
