The ease of cultivation: the pomelo is relatively easy to grow at home, if you provide it with suitable conditions.

How to care for a tree tree

The tropical plant needs a comfortable air temperature, the best option: 20-26 degrees of heat.

This regime can be maintained in the spring, summer and autumn, and in the winter months we recommend reducing it to 15-16 degrees to ensure abundant fruiting.

How to fertilize the pomelo

When growing a pomelo for obtaining fruits, organic fertilizers with a high phosphorus content, such as mushroom compost, bone flour and bird droppings, contribute to the development of delicious and well -formed fruits.

How to water

Typically, pomelo needs to be watered 1-2 times a week in the summer and 1 time in 10-14 days in the winter.

When watering, you should make sure that the upper soil layer has dried before the next watering.

When it begins to bear fruit

The fruits ripen in 5 to 7 months. Their taste is sweet with light bitterness.

The plant begins to bear fruit only for the 7th - 10th year after landing, so you will have to stock up on.
