Roses never survive? Beginners who master these two points will have them growing fast and blooming abundantly

[0030]When beginners grow roses, they always fail to keep them alive. Master these two points and your roses will grow fast and bloom abundantly!

Recently, quite a few gardening friends have told Lanyao that they had bought rose seedlings many times before, but none of them survived, and they have already lost confidence, afraid that the seedlings they buy from Lanyao's shop will also fail to survive just the same.

Actually, keeping roses alive is not difficult. It is just that us beginner gardening friends tend to run into problems with some small details, which leads to the rose seedlings not surviving.

First of all, as a beginner, it is best not to choose toothpick seedlings. Toothpick seedlings themselves have relatively weak roots and are more difficult to care for. Without management experience, beginners are more likely to kill them. It is best to choose larger seedlings, whose root systems are more developed and whose resistance is better, making them tough and able to endure. Even if there are some problems during care, they can withstand them.

Common mistakes when growing roses

When beginners grow roses, they are prone to killing them, mainly because they easily make the following mistakes.

1. Improper base fertilizer

Before potting up roses, base fertilizer should be added to ensure sufficient nutrients during the rose's growth. Everyone knows this, but what fertilizer should be used as base fertilizer? This is where many people get confused.

Many of us beginner gardening friends use quick-release compound fertilizer as base fertilizer. That is where the problem comes in.

A rose that has just been repotted has not yet adapted to the new environment. At this time, using quick-release compound fertilizer as base fertilizer very easily causes fertilizer burn. In mild cases the leaves scorch and wither; in severe cases the entire seedling dies outright. Toothpick seedlings in particular have poor tolerance and are prone to dying.

For rose base fertilizer, only fermented organic fertilizer or long-acting slow-release fertilizer may be used.

2. Overwatering

Then there is the habit of always wanting to water after potting up. This should be a common problem for most beginner gardening friends. They are always afraid it will dry out, watering once a day and misting several times as well.

Actually, for roses this is extremely fatal.

Roses do not tolerate waterlogging. If the potting soil stays too wet for a long time, root rot is very likely, so you must wait until the potting soil is dry before watering.

In addition, do not mist roses. If the leaf surface has standing water for a long time and stays damp, it very easily triggers disease.

3. Applying concentrated fertilizer

In order to make roses grow fast, people think of giving them more fertilizer. We all say to apply thin fertilizer frequently, but many of us gardening friends cannot judge the fertilizer concentration well and always give concentrated fertilizer. As soon as they fertilize, they find the rose leaves scorched and withered.

If the fertilizer concentration is too high, it can also directly cause the death of the rose.

4. Poor ventilation and insufficient light

Roses like an environment with sufficient light and good ventilation. If roses are placed indoors without light, or on a completely enclosed balcony, it is very unfavorable for rose growth and easily causes the roses to grow weak and spindly.

Over time, they easily become infected with pests and diseases, causing poor plant growth and even death.

It is best to place roses outdoors or outside a windowsill with sufficient light and good ventilation for care.

5. Not preventing pests and diseases

Prevention of rose pests and diseases is very important. Once infected with pests and diseases, the plant is very easily weakened, and then death occurs.

During routine care, pay attention to ensuring ventilation and sufficient fertilizer and water, and do not frequently mist the leaves, as this easily induces disease.
