How to deal with rose seedlings after they become stiff in summer

1. Ventilation

Due to the high temperature in summer, rose seedlings may become stunted, meaning their growth stagnates and they enter a semi-dormant state with no signs of growth. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. In this case, you can ventilate more often, open windows more often to promote air circulation, lower the temperature, increase the growth rate, and alleviate the symptoms of stunted seedlings.

2. Loosen the soil appropriately

Soil is very important for growth. If there is a problem with the soil, the roots will have difficulty breathing normally, growth will be restricted, and seedlings will become stunted. The temperature is high in summer, so it is not suitable to change the potting soil. Transplanting at this time can easily damage the root system and affect the later growth. You can loosen the soil appropriately to increase the looseness of the soil, which can also be beneficial to the later growth of the root system.

3. Reasonable water and fertilizer

After the seedlings become stunted, their growth stagnates and the demand for water and fertilizer decreases, but they still need to be given appropriately. Be sure to pay attention to the amount not being too much.

4. Prevention and control of pests and diseases

The temperature is high in summer, and diseases and pests are prone to occur. We must pay attention to disease and pest prevention and control to restore the vitality of the plants.
