How to get a Pomegranate in The Sims 4

2 weeks ago 47

There are endless collectibles your Sims can enjoy in The Sims 4, ranging from common items like flowers and berries to more outlandish things like aliens inside jars. All of them have value, though, and are worth getting a hold of.

The Pomegranate, for example, may seem like a common fruit to have in your inventory, but it’s actually incredibly useful. It’s also not as easy to get as you’d think. So here’s how to get a Pomegranate in The Sims 4.

How to graft a Pomegranate in The Sims 4

The easiest way to get a Pomegranate is simply to buy one from your Sim’s phone under gifts, and choose gardening for the category. However, you can also graft one using an Apple and a Cherry. You’ll need to be at least level five in the Gardening skill to graft, so have your Sim reach this level first. You can achieve this by growing the Apple trees and Cherry trees to take the cutting from.

Once you’re at the proper level, and you have both Cherry and Apple trees, select to take a cutting from one. Then, click on the other tree to choose graft, and you’ll get a spliced plant.

This plant will grow Cherries, Apples, and Pomegranates, which you can then harvest for the fruit you need.

If you want an unlimited supply of Pomegranates, take the fruit and plant it. This will eventually grow into a Pomegranate tree, and you can continue gathering this fruit daily during the winter when it grows. If you plan on making lots of Ambrosia, this is a great tree to have around.

How to get Apples and Cherries for Pomegranate

Luckily, the two fruit trees you need aren’t as difficult to get a hold of. You can find Apple trees already growing in Willow Creek at Magnolia Blossom Park, that you can harvest and plant in the ground for your own tree.

For a Cherry, you can head to the Skyward Palms neighborhood of Oasis Springs. Cherry trees will grow in this area, and you can again harvest one and plant it on your lot for your own Cherry tree.

You will need a tree in order to take cuttings from it, not just the fruits on their own.

How to level up the Gardening skill fast

One of the more difficult parts of getting a Pomegranate is getting high enough in the Gardening skill to be able to graft. Luckily, you will earn skill just by tending to your Cherry and Apple trees, especially if your Sim is in a Focused mood.

You’ll need to tend to your plants daily, which will build up the skill over time. You can also read Gardening skill books purchased from any bookshelf, to help speed the process up. This way, even when your Sim isn’t gardening, they can keep building the skill.
