Although roses do not require large amounts of fertilizer and water for maintenance, they will grow better and bloom more if the fertility is good. If the fertilizer is insufficient, the rose will become stunted, with no branches or flowers growing. I believe this is not what flower lovers want to see. Therefore, we should pay attention to fertilizing roses in our daily life. So how do we fertilize roses and what kind of fertilizer is the best? What fertilizer is good for rosesRoses require various trace elements to grow. Both organic and inorganic fertilizers can be used. Organic fertilizers mainly include sheep manure, cow dung, farmyard manure, etc. Inorganic fertilizers are the granular fertilizers we buy, such as slow-release fertilizers, compound fertilizers, etc. These fertilizers each have their own advantages, and they are all good fertilizers for growing roses. Although they are good, we must pay attention to controlling the concentration when using them. Too much can easily burn the roots and cause the death of the plant, which is a very serious consequence. Therefore, no matter what fertilizer you use, you must not add too much at one time . I usually use sheep manure and farmyard manure as base fertilizer, and some compound fertilizer during the growth period, and the roses grow very well. How to fertilize roses scientificallyDifferent fertilizers have different effects on roses, and the methods of use are also different. Let’s talk about them in detail below. 1. Organic fertilizers such as sheep manure and cow manureSheep manure and cow manure usually need to be decomposed before use. If they are not decomposed, they can be dried. Do not add too much at one time when using. When we grow roses, many flower lovers like to use sheep manure as fertilizer, because sheep manure is less likely to burn roots, especially dried sheep manure. It has little impact on roses. You can dig a pit and bury it, or you can directly sprinkle it on the surface of the potting soil. Dried sheep manure basically has no odor. If you want to use it safely, it is best to use it after it is fully decomposed . 2. Farmyard manureIn fact, sheep manure and cow manure are also farmyard manure. Why are they mentioned separately here? It is because the farmyard manure mentioned here refers to organic fertilizers formed by some weeds, plants or animal feces. This kind of fertilizer must be decomposed and cannot be used directly, otherwise it will easily cause root burn. In our rural areas, it usually takes more than half a year to decompose before it can be used. Generally, it is almost the same if it does not feel hot to the touch and smells cold. You can also use fermented bacteria, which can usually be used in a week. Farmyard manure can be used as base fertilizer, that is, add some at the bottom when transplanting roses. But not too much. You can also use it as regular fertilizer, once every half a month, dig a small hole in the potting soil and put a little in it. 3. Slow-release fertilizerSlow-release fertilizer can be used as base fertilizer, just like farmyard manure, and mixed into the potting soil when transplanting roses. Why is it called slow-release fertilizer? This is because it can slowly decompose in the potting soil to produce the elements needed by the rose, lasting for a relatively long time without causing root burn. Even so, do not add too much at one time. Slow-release fertilizer can also be added on a regular basis, the method is the same as farmyard manure. 4. Compound fertilizerThe so-called compound fertilizer is a fertilizer containing a variety of trace elements, generally containing nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements, which can not only meet the growth of rose branches, but also meet the needs of rose flowering and fruiting, and is relatively convenient to use . Usually, you can dig a hole in the pot soil to bury it, but don't use too much, otherwise it will burn the roots. In addition, there are many fertilizers that can meet the growth needs of roses. Generally speaking, roses need a lot of nitrogen supplementation during the growth period, and farmyard manure, compound fertilizer, urea, etc. can be used. When the buds are in the brewing stage, it is necessary to promptly supplement them with fertilizers containing phosphorus and potassium elements, such as compound fertilizers, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, Huaduoduo, etc. When it blooms in the later stage, you should also add potassium dihydrogen phosphate or Huaduoduo . In winter, don't add fertilizer to it, because it has been dormant and basically will not absorb nutrients. |
