How to let the Chinese pomegranate survive the winter so that it can grow better next year!

Habits and characteristics

Before introducing in detail how it survives the winter, let's first learn some knowledge about it, which can not only deepen our understanding of it, but also help us better formulate wintering plans. It prefers to live in a warm, humid and semi-shaded environment. One thing to note is that it is not cold-resistant, so it is more commonly distributed in southern my country. If the temperature in the northern region is very low in winter, or in other areas with large temperature differences, plants must take certain measures if they want to survive the winter.

Several specific aspects

temperature:

We have talked about its characteristics above. Let me repeat the important part here: it is not cold-resistant. So, with the arrival of winter, temperature is the first factor we need to control. Potted plants should naturally be moved indoors for maintenance, while those planted in the ground can be covered with plastic film or something to ensure that the temperature around them does not drop too much. Of course, growers in the south should not take it lightly. Just to be on the safe side, it is better to take a little more effort and move it into the house.

Moisture:

From its habits we know that it likes a humid environment. Even though it needs very little water in winter, it cannot be completely without watering. The soil should not be left dry for too long. When you see it is dry, water it lightly to moisten it.

ventilation:

Ventilation in winter is generally somewhat conflicting with temperature, and more ventilation will lead to lower temperatures. Even so, it is not possible to have no ventilation at all. Dirty air is very harmful to plants. Therefore, considering the need to maintain the temperature, it is sufficient to ventilate the room for a while during the day.
