Can grapefruit be grown in the north?

1. Can it be planted?

Pomelo cannot be grown outdoors in the north because it requires a mild and warm growing environment with a stable temperature of 16-21℃. However, due to the cold climate in the north, it is difficult for it to survive. It can grow in the summer, but problems will arise during the winter and it will be difficult to bear fruit.

The soil is not suitable either. It needs to grow in a fertile and water-rich place, but the climate in the northern region is dry, and it is difficult to achieve this condition in the open air. Even if it survives, it will not bear fruit. Therefore, it is not recommended to plant it in the open air environment in the north. You can choose to plant it indoors.

2. Planting requirements

1. Temperature: It is difficult for it to adapt to low temperature environment during its growth. Its growth will be slow below 0 degrees Celsius, and it will suffer frost damage below 5 degrees Celsius, so good temperature conditions must be maintained. Generally, there is heating in the north in winter, which can meet this condition. But you should also be careful not to get too close to the heating equipment.

2. Potting soil: Pomelo needs deep loam to grow. Choose loose soil that is rich in nutrients. You can mix garden soil, pine needles, leaf mold, etc.

3. Water: It likes a humid environment, so the water supply must be sufficient.
