Olives prefer deep, spaced-out watering — never soggy soil.
Young plants: Water every 5-7 days with 2-3 liters, especially in the first 6 months.
Mature trees: Deep water every 10-14 days with 6-8 liters.
Always let topsoil dry before watering again. Water in early morning or evening, and apply mulch to retain moisture.
Feed lightly with NPK 10-10-10 in early spring.
Add compost or aged manure in February and September.
Prune in late winter to maintain shape and remove weak growth.

In extreme heat, water more and mulch generously to protect roots.

About Olive Tree (Gemlik Variety)
Gemlik Olive – A Turkish Classic That Thrives in Pakistan
The Gemlik Olive Tree, originally from Turkey, is celebrated for its deep black olives, high oil yield, and robust, disease-resistant nature. In Pakistan's climate, it grows exceptionally well in dry, sunny zones with minimal maintenance.
Gemlik trees start bearing fruit within 3–4 years and produce a reliable harvest from October to December. Its compact shape and slow growth also make it a great fit for patios and urban gardens.
Durable, Drought-Tolerant & Beginner-Friendly
Gemlik olives grow best in well-drained soil and full sun. Once established, they can survive on very little water, making them ideal for water-conscious gardeners and newcomers. These trees also live for decades and get stronger with age.
