In order for roses to bring joy and pleasure, they require proper care, especially in June, when they bloom in all their glory.

One of the important elements of rose care is watering.

How often and with what solution should roses be watered in June so that they bloom profusely and are not susceptible to disease?

Frequency of watering

Roses love moisture, but they do not tolerate stagnant water in the soil. Therefore, they need to be watered regularly, but moderately.

The frequency of watering depends on the type of roses, soil type, climate and weather conditions.

On average, roses need to be watered once every 5-7 days in dry and hot weather and once every 10-14 days in cool and humid weather.

Watering should be done in the morning or evening, when the sun is not so active. Watering should be done at the root, avoiding water getting on the leaves and flowers.

Irrigation solution

To water roses, you can use regular clean water at room temperature or slightly warmed in the sun.

But for a better effect, you can add components to the water that will promote growth, flowering and protection of roses from diseases.

Here are some examples of such solutions.

Solution with honey

Honey contains many useful substances for plants, such as phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, iron, etc.

Honey also stimulates the flowering of roses and protects them from fungal diseases. To prepare a solution, mix 1 tablespoon of honey with 10 liters of water and water the roses generously with this mixture once a month.

Solution with iodine

Iodine is a powerful antiseptic that helps fight bacterial and viral infections in roses.

Iodine also improves metabolism in plants and promotes the formation of beautiful and large flowers. To prepare the solution, dissolve 1 teaspoon of iodine in 10 liters of water and spray the roses with this solution once every two weeks.

Solution with ash

Ash is an excellent source of potassium for roses, which strengthens the stems, leaves and roots of plants.

Ash also neutralizes soil acidity and prevents the development of fungal diseases in roses.

To prepare the solution, you need to soak 1 glass of ash in 10 liters of water for a day, then strain and water the roses with this solution once a month.

Watering is one of the most important procedures for caring for roses in June.

The health, beauty and abundance of flowering of roses depend on how often and with what solution you water them.

Therefore, do not forget to regularly and moderately moisten the soil under the roses and add useful components to the water, such as honey, iodine or ash.
