I live in Denver (zone 6) and I have managed to grow a pomegranate tree (cold hardy) outside in the ground!

Hi Lakshmi. I would love to know what variety you have, if it has a name. That is amazing that you have been able to grow it. Has it survived this past (very cold) winter?

How is the heating / cooling system doing? Would love to see an update video if you still have it. We have a shed that we are planning on turning into a greenhouse in the spring. I would love to get your advice.

@@linseypfeifer Not good. The system is completely down because of mistakes I made in the build. I used buckets taped together for the plenums on each side, and in time the soil pressed in and collapsed them, so that air can't really get through. The good news is that the greenhouse is still enough to keep the figs and pomegranates healthy without the system. I might be building another greenhouse, and if I do, I will record the build, along with the system built the RIGHT way, and post it. :)

Would you recommend that system but using something other than buckets? Like did it work before the collapse?

That is amazing, what kind of soil would you recommend?

Sorry for the late response! Pomegranates are very easy and don't mind a whole variety of soil types, as long as the soil is not overly wet and water-logged.

That's amazing! Did you heat the greenhouse during the colder months?

Thanks. I only intervened during this extreme cold blast we had of about 12 degrees below zero (-24 celsius) by using a space heater on low for a day or two. Otherwise I use a very low powered climate battery, which I outline here : kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZu1m5mBms1-f9E

Did you get any fruit last year? I've planted two Russian 26 varieties, and am building my greenhouse around them. I know it will be a few years before they fruit, but I'd really like an update on your pomegranate.

Yes, we did! Eight of them. Amazing quality. Hope you do well with yours!

Hi, should I be able to grow a pomegranate tree in South Jersey?
@TheIntegratedGarden2 жыл бұрын
You might be able to! Look for the hardiest pomegranate varieties! Should be a pretty quick web search.

You can; North Jersey here. You can grow it a container against the house for extra protection from the winter winds. One green world has a lot of cold hardy pomegranate types.
