Melvin Wei's video: Growing Pomegranate Trees from Seeds Days 32-65

@Growing Pomegranate Trees from Seeds, Days 32-65
My pomegranate seedlings have started off well for the first two months indoors in pampered synthetic conditions, but are they ready for the trials of cold outdoor nights, fungi, and pests after a big transplant? The new sets of true leaves coming out were always wrinkly and misshapen early on, but after a few days they all seemed to manage to straighten themselves out like new butterfly wings. I watered perhaps every 5 days on average, not really knowing how much water was too much or too little...I think I erred on the side of too little water. Sand dries out fast. It really helps to have a clear container where you can see the root system like an ant colony in a clear tank, and also see the level of hydration easily. In the future I will start with a taller clear container to allow for the roots to burrow much deeper, as that seems to be the key to a fast start and robust growth; I think a container that's an inch wide and a foot deep is better than a container that's a foot wide and an inch deep. Pomegranate trees seem to like to have water at the bottom where their taproots are deepest to drink directly from.
