We are talking about nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulfur.

Therefore, four mineral fertilizers will be needed at once.

First of all, we are talking about urea (1 tbsp. per 10 liters of water). One liter of the prepared solution should be used for each bush.

The rose also needs ammonium nitrate: 30 grams per bucket of water, 5 liters for each bush.

In spring, the plant should be fed with superphosphate: 2 tbsp. per 10 liters of water. Roses should be doused with drops of the prepared product.

Potassium nitrate (25 g per bucket of water) will also have a positive effect on the flora.
