Why pomegranate flowers are not converting to fruits

[@rosethorne9155]

!! The note to spray them with honey water is a revelation!! I often have problems with my flowers not setting fruit, and I recently realized it is because there are so few bees! I could not think of a way to attract them back (I already have a flower patch, in addition to my 2 potted pomegranate trees) so this will he very helpful! 😊

[@sethsmith9999]

this is BAD advice. honey carries American Foalbrood spores and will transfer the disease from your honey to other hives thus killing the hive. the only cure for AFB is buring the hive, honey, bees, and any thing used in the hive. so DONT do this.

[@dawgtheundying5303]

I have a lemon myrtle that's loved by both native and European bees, as well as hornets. If I plant my pomegranate close to it, maybe they will take notice.

[@Sopurpley]

Thank you for the great tips! Will give it a try. It is really sad what a lack of bees there seem to be these days.

[@gardeningandcooking5145]

Thanks for liking the video. For this reason, I have my own bee hive and in most countries governments are supporting this. Bees are allowed even in multi-story and multi-unit housing in busy cities. Unfortunately, the corporate greed has brought us here. This is the way to go now. If you want real milk, have your own cow or a goat. If you want real honey have your own bee hives and if you want healthy vegetables grow your own. Not all of can do it unfortunately, so we are at the mercy of human gods.

I have plenty of Pomegranate fruit without having sprayed the flowers & fruits (while they are forming) with water, but, on some evenings dew forms on the plants & ground, & that may help when it does. . . . However, not so much during our summers (Inland, Southern California). . . . Wind knocks quite a few of our flowers off ... &, splitting of fruit happens if I water too often while it is forming. Once every other week is good in our heavy clay soil, no more. . . . We also have Hummingbirds that often visit our Pomegranate's flowers, so I suspect they may play a part in helping the flowers become fruits. (: Pomegranates are a favorite fruit of mine! Both 'Wonderful' and 'Sweet' varieties, and probably others that I haven't yet had opportunity to taste!

Thank you, I'll try that. We're in an arid hard clay area .

Sir after how many year this plant produce fruit ?

[@gardeningandcooking5145]

Should produce fruit within 5 years, if you grow from seeds. If you used branches to propagate plants than it should be 2 years maximum.

[@kerrypolly1252]

Thank you for your video. Is it possible to explain to me the following. I have a five year old pomegranate tree which I pruned radically last season, it has been fed properly with citrus food periodically and this season looks very healthy with many new branches. However there are no flowers. The PH of the soil is right.. I can not figure out what is the problem. Can you help me by responding on this column. I will appreciate it. KP

[@gardeningandcooking5145]

Did you grow the plant from seeds ? These plants take longer to flower and fruit, Some varieties 7 years and while some even 10 years.

[@nelsontan8328]

I have a pomegranate tree that produce lots of flower but the fruits is very small please help than6

[@gardeningandcooking5145]

@@nelsontan8328 the things that I can think of, is that may be a small variety or otherwise the plant is not able to find enough nutrients. Fertilize it well but not too much. Is the soil very compact ?

[@imranjaghoori9643]

If you radically pruned like you said, then you killed all the chances of the plant producing any fruits. Pomegranates produce flower, and thus set fruit, on the previous year’s wood. Prune only the dead woods.

Hi. I'm in South Africa. Now is late autumn just few days before winter. Zone 9b goes sometime to -4C but very few days. Day time temperatures in 20s. My pomegranate is full of flowers and young fruits. That tree start late flowering and then in the middle of summer in to the winter he start flowering like crazy. tree is in his 4th year.

my fruits are rotting in early stage what may be the reason and measures to save fruits

[@gardeningandcooking5145]

I would say it is a fungal infection. The most common frustrating diseases in pomegranate are caused by fungal infections which can be the hardest to control. The frequent culprits are Alternaria fruit rot, Aspergillus fruit rot and Boytrytis. Find some antifungal from local garden shop or from the internet.

[@NIP345]

Hello, I don't believe #2 is necessary at all, at least not with my variety of pomegranate--Parfianka. Also, there are both male and female flowers on pomegranates. The male flower will never turn into fruit and will naturally dry up and fall onto the ground.

[@Mawan4697]

Dont give water while there are flowers at the plant...

[@ashiqmansoor5352]

These suggestions are not going to cure the common problem with pomegranate flower falling. Access of watering, spraying of honey into flowers are not the accurate tips. Somebody has told me that it is due to the deficiency of a particular nutrient during flowering season. Some told that a moth like insect deep into the flowers. However the quality of voice and pictures of this video was good.

[@tintunbirha]

.boron is required.

[@rbmarbella]

The question is, are there population of pollinators in the area? Attracting pollinators is through planting flowering plants around the area... Not baiting them 😂
