It is required to you
- Sharp secateurs or knife.
Instruction
1. Eyes (growth kidneys) – are located in bosoms of leaves. After fall down leaves, these kidneys are well noticeable. You carry out cutting of roses as it is possible closer to such kidney. Use only sharp secateurs or knife. The fragmentary, uneven cut can lead to death of stalk. The cut should not exceed half-centimeter from kidney and to be slightly inclined from it. Non-compliance with these rules can lead to escape death.
2. Conduct cutting to healthy fabric. If the core of stalk has brown unhealthy color, cut off it to white healthy cut. Cut off on kidney which is located on outer end of branch, on purpose – not to shade the central part bushof kroner.
3. On bush leave 4-5 strong escapes which have normal development and average growth. On each such escape leave 3 – 6 eyes, on escapes with moderate force of growth leave 4-5 eyes, and on weak – 2-3 peepholes. At strong plants of roses often happens that after cutting from one kidney two or three escapes begin to grow. As soon as possible remove unnecessary escapes, having left only one.
4. Surely cut off completely everything the sick and died-off escapes to the level of the soil or prior to the beginning of healthy fabric. Burn the infected parts of escapes not to allow to extend diseases.
5. Try to support sufficient interval between stalks not to break air permeability of krone and access of light to leaves. It will help to reduce the probability of development of various diseases.
6. At the curling grades of roses cut out only the superfluous and dried-up branches. It is better for scrap of dwarfish grades of roses to carry out in the spring, on 3-5 peepholes.
7. It is better to carry out spring cutting at the beginning of March when hard frosts fall down and growth kidneys bulk up, in the middle of powerful stalks. After cutting the rosebushes mulch the rerotting manure. Such procedure stimulates emergence of strong escapes. Summer cutting consists inflorescences or flowers at a distance and continues all summer months. Autumn cutting is carried out in November, before the shelter of roses for the winter.
