How to propagate pomegranate

1. Cutting

1. Spring and autumn are the two best times. Both periods are suitable, but autumn is better than spring, which is conducive to rooting and survival.

2. Cut 1-2 year old young branches as cuttings, about 0.5-1cm thick. Avoid using long branches as they are not conducive to rooting. If you use branches that are more than three years old, it will not be conducive to growth and will not achieve a high yield.

3. The loam needs to be sandy loam with good permeability. Lightly compact the soil about 15 cm apart, pour enough water on it, and cover it with a film to keep it warm and moisturize.

2. Layering

1. Select a long branch from the root of a large tree, dig a hole at the original location, then bend the branch into a bow shape, and bury both ends with loam and compact them.

2. Keep watering it to keep the loam moist, and it will take root in about 40 days.

3. After rooting, disconnect it from the mother plant and allow it to start growing naturally. It can be transplanted after about 20 days.

3. Sowing

1. After the fruit matures in August-September, take out the seeds, dry them and store them.

2. Soak the seeds for 6-8 hours before sowing, and then sow them in the culture soil.

3. Keep the temperature at 20-25℃, and new shoots and roots will grow after one month.
