How to Harvest
How To
Harvest :
Native from Iran to Himalayas in northern India, pomegranates grown in mild temperate to subtropical climates in regions with cool winters and hot summers. Drought tolerant, the trees literally prefer a semi-arid climate, planted in deep, acidic loam with good drainage. Don’t expect to start harvesting pomegranates fruit until 3-4 years after planting. Once the trees have reached that age of maturity, the fruit will ripen about 6-7 months after flowering – generally making harvest season for pomegranates in September for early ripening varieties and continues through October for later ripening cultivars.
During the time harvesting pomegranate pick the fruit when is fully ripe and a deep red in color since it does not continue to ripe post-harvest. They begin picking pomegranates when the fruit makes a metallic sound by tapping it with the finger.
They cut the fruit from the tree, not pull it off. Cutting the fruit should be as close as possible to the branch, taking the stem with the fruit.
