Roses won't die from shock: how to properly remove cover after winter
There are several nuances about how to properly remove coverings from roses in the spring so as not to harm the plants.
Many gardeners take care of flowers in the fall, protecting plantings from the coming cold. In order for the new season to begin without unpleasant surprises, the cover must be removed correctly.
It is a mistake to do what inexperienced gardeners do. They often remove the cover immediately after the first rays of the sun warm them.
Gardeners do not realize that delicate roses may not recover from such a shock. Therefore, the procedure must be carried out in strict sequence. Only in this case, the roses will not suffer and will delight you with flowering in the new season.
How to open roses correctly
When the weather gets warm, the plants are uncovered for 1-2 hours a day, and then the cover is returned. This should be done when the weather gets warmer and the snow melts.
Gradually increase the time by 1-2 hours. That is, the next day you can leave it for 2-3 hours. Thus, in good weather, you can completely abandon the shelter within a week.
At the same time, the plants are inspected, darkened leaves are removed, the soil is loosened and spring fertilizer is prepared.
