Do potted roses need watering and fertilizing
The editor will explain the knowledge related to whether potted roses need watering and fertilizing and the maintenance methods of potted roses, and the introduction will follow.
When roses are planted in the soil, do they need watering and fertilizing during the high temperatures of summer? For rose cultivation, fertilizers and water are basically continuously used. Whether it's potted roses or ground-planted roses, during the maintenance period, in order to allow roses to grow better and produce high-quality petals, water and fertilization are essential.
Many rose enthusiasts think that since the roots of ground-planted roses grow in the soil, they can absorb more nutrients and water, so they no longer water or fertilize them. This approach is actually wrong. Ground-planted plants also need to be fertilized. Fertilizers are like nutrients, and only with nutrients will roses grow faster.
The temperature in summer is relatively high, and it coincides with the blooming period of roses. At this time, a large amount of watering is essential. Ground-planted roses can dig a soil pit around them, pour tap water into the pit, and then cover it with soil to reduce water evaporation, allowing the water to better penetrate into the deep soil.
Do ground-planted roses need watering and fertilizing?
The best fertilizing method for ground-planted roses is to add nutrient solutions to the water. For example, you can buy some online products like Huadu Du's No. 2 or potassium dihydrogen phosphate fertilizer. Dissolve the fertilizer in water first, mix it thoroughly, and then water the plants. Liquid fertilizers are more beneficial for root absorption.
The same principle applies to other types of flowers and green plants. When directly planted in the soil, they also need to be fertilized and watered to supplement water, allowing new branches and leaves to grow effectively, and the blooming period of the petals will also last longer.
In high-temperature weather, watering ground-planted roses can be done in the evening or after it gets dark. Each watering allows the water to penetrate well, preventing it from evaporating quickly due to the high temperature. Since the temperature in summer is already very high, if watering is done during the day, the water will quickly evaporate, and the amount absorbed by the plant roots will be very small.
