pomegranates

Question

I have a pomegranate tree. It has a few pomegranates. When are they ready to eat? The seeds are red, skin is hard and dark green with some red?

Answer 1

Harvesting occurs approximately six to seven months after bloom. They have a base color of yellow with a bit of light pink or red on top. If the fruits over-mature, they will crack open. Tap the fruits that look fully ripe. Harvest if it makes a metallic sound, like tapping your fingernail on a metal pot.
