How to Water Pomegranate Flowers
This article provides an introduction to how to water pomegranate flowers and the correct maintenance methods for pomegranate flower care. Let's delve into it together.
Pomegranate flowers belong to the Punicaceae family and are native to regions like Iran in the Middle East, later introduced to our country. The flowers are bright in color and beautiful in appearance, carrying a beautiful meaning. The famous ancient Chinese poet Bai Juyi praised the pomegranate flowers with the lines, "A cluster of a thousand flowers presses against the railing, shredded red silk making a round shape." Pomegranate flowers have high medicinal value and can treat diseases such as kidney stones and stomatitis. Proper watering is crucial for growing pomegranate flowers well. Let's talk about how to water pomegranate flowers.
1. Watering in All Seasons
1. Spring
Spring is the most vigorous growing season for pomegranate flowers, and they should be watered adequately to provide sufficient water for their growth. However, be careful not to overwater or accumulate water, and pay attention to drainage.
2. Summer
In summer, which is the blooming and fruit-setting period for pomegranate flowers, water should be controlled appropriately to keep the soil moist. During the plum rain season, it is necessary to avoid rain to prevent the plant from getting wet, as rain can damage the flowers and fruits. Follow the principle of watering when dry and not watering when not dry, and water thoroughly to avoid waterlogging. Avoid watering during the hottest part of the day, and it's best to water in the early morning or evening.
3. Autumn
In early autumn, when the weather becomes cooler, water normally until the end of autumn when the temperature drops rapidly, then reduce the amount of water to prepare the plant for winter.
4. Winter
In winter, the temperature is low, and the plant gradually enters a dormant state. Reduce watering, or even minimize it, to avoid frost damage and waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
2. Watering Precautions
1. Drainage
Pomegranates can tolerate drought but not flooding. When watering, be careful not to overwater, causing flooding; during the rainy season, pay more attention to drainage.
2. Watering Method
Generally, use irrigation to maintain soil moisture between 60%-80%; when watering, be careful not to splash water on the flowers and leaves, as this can easily lead to rot and affect fruit setting.
