Roses are the most common floral plants and people buy roses for gifts once Valentine's Day comes around, no matter what city they are in. Roses come in several colors, usually red, white and yellow, and the flowering period is from May to September. For raising pots to see, roses are also a good flower plant. So how to raise roses? Remember the 5 breeding methods to help you bloom!

Breeding method 1: suitable soil Suitable planting soil, is the basic conditions of rose good growth, no good soil, there is no good future. Poor growth in the later stage, difficult to manage, want roses to have a good root system is almost difficult to do. The most suitable soil for planting roses is humus-rich humus, which is loose and breathable, with sufficient nutrient content, and contains a large number of beneficial fungi and microorganisms, which can acidify the soil and improve its structure, making it very suitable for planting roses. In addition to choosing high-quality rotting leaf soil, due to the fine structure of rotting leaf soil, water retention is too strong; daily maintenance process, it is easy to be too high for a long time, resulting in potting soil waterlogging. Therefore, it is also necessary to add an appropriate amount of leaching material, such as coarse river sand, perlite, vermiculite and other particulate matter, more conducive to enhancing the drainage of potting soil, generally mixed into the amount of one-third of the total amount of soil is more appropriate.

Method 2: Light and Temperature Roses are positive plants, and sufficient light will make the rose flowers more colorful and the fragrance of the flowers more intense. Roses need 4 hours and more of light per day, and prolonged lack of sunlight will cause the leaves of roses to yellow. In the winter when it is too cold outside, move roses back indoors to grow them, but keep them in a window position to make sure they get some sun. Roses like to grow in a warm environment, 12-28 degrees Celsius is optimal, not below -5 degrees Celsius, otherwise it will cause low temperature frost damage.

Method 3: Watering Generally in the spring and fall when the weather is warmer, but also the growth period of roses, only enough water to make it grow better, so we just need to see the surface of the soil is dry in time to give it a thorough watering. But too hot summer and cold winter, roses will enter the dormant period with the temperature change, the growth rate will slow down or even stop growing. At this time its demand for water will naturally be greatly reduced, so we have to wait for 2-3 days after we see the soil surface dry before watering the roses, so that the roses will instead absorb water better.

Breeding method 4: fertilization In the growing period of the four seasons of small roses should be sprayed to the foliage spraying diammonium phosphate solution, 1 time / week, in the spring before the germination of the application of rotted farmyard fertilizer, sprouting after the application of human and animal manure or chemical fertilizer. Apply calcium superphosphate or dihydrogen phosphate pressed in water solution when buds are present, avoid nitrogen fertilizer during the flowering period to prevent flower drop, low temperature in winter, you can bury the fertilizer in the pit around the roots of the crop before watering.

Breeding method 5: pruning and pest control After the flowering period should be appropriate pruning, if it is not necessary to breed fruit and retain seeds, you can cut off the withered flowers. The summer dormant period can be properly pruned and shaped, but also to avoid futile growth. The common pests and diseases of roses are rust, brown spot, branch blight, aphids, red spider and asphodel, etc., which should be controlled in time, and for the diseases caused by germs, it is necessary to spray Chlorothalonil solution and so on in advance for prevention.
