What soil to use for pomegranate tree potting

1. What soil to use

It has strong survival ability, so it does not have too many requirements for the loam in which it grows. Either sandy loam or loam will do. It is not strict about acidity and alkalinity. It can adapt to acidic or alkaline conditions, and the pH value can be kept between 4.5-8.2. For daily breeding at home, you can mix garden soil, leaf mold and sandy soil in the same proportions, which can ensure permeability and provide certain nutrition. If not, you can also dig some garden soil, field soil, river pond mud nearby, 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.

2. Precautions

Before using these loams, they need to be exposed to the sun for about a week, which can effectively kill the bacteria in them, reduce the possibility of future diseases and pests, and ensure the future growth of the plants. Disinfection is very important. Even if you buy new soil, you still need to process it. If you don't have enough time, you can also soak the roots of the pomegranate in a solution of carbendazim, take them out after 5 hours, dry them, and plant them in a pot.
