Amateur flower growers at the end of winter are covered by fever of purchase of saplings of favourite flowers, including roses. Many know from the experience: the disembarkation season is closer, the it is less than chances to buy qualitative saplings of the fallen in love flowers.
Instruction
1. It is the most correct to buy saplings in tsvetovodchesky nurseries, but it is not always convenient therefore many flower growers buy saplings in specialized shops. Now shops are filled with import roses which feature that their stalks are covered with protective layer from wax. On the one hand is convenient storage technique of planting stock before disembarkation to the soil: the stalk does not dry and remains viable. On the other hand, such protection hides stalk, because of layer of wax it is difficult to define its quality, especially in radical part. Unfair sellers sometimes try to hide thus obvious defects of stalk, and at times even mold which can be infecting agent of roses.
2. Experienced flower growers use two methods of removal of wax from stalks. One sparing: wax is removed without use of additional resources. When the planting stock is in conservative storage conditions, sapling roots, without removing packing, is abundant and regularly humidify. Roots begin to absorb intensively moisture, stalks do not dry, and the wax covering them begins to burst and disappear spontaneously.
3. If it does not occur or wax is not removed completely, it is possible to apply other way of removal. The sharpened peg it is necessary to pick up edge of the wax cover at root, raising film, to advance peg lengthways on stalk. To remove the disappearing pieces of wax. Work requires attention and accuracy. It is impossible to allow damages of stalk, but this way gives guarantee that the sapling of rose will safely take root.
4. It is impossible to delete with the described method wax from rose on which kidneys have already woken up therefore it is possible to remove covering only in the early spring and from roses which wintered in cellar or the fridge. It is not necessary to keep in the warm such planting stock before processing.
5. The European roses seldom cover with dense layer of wax. therefore gardeners sometimes try not to remove it, and to kindle. Heating coils cannot be used, and here force of the sun very is useful. It is enough to leave the sapling which is previously wetted in water under direct sunshine and to spray it with warm water everyone half an hour. Wax will quickly be softened. To descend from stalk it will not be able, but will lag behind rose very easily: just remove soft film and rinse roots with water.
6. It is necessary to remove wax, contrary to raznotolka. If not to remove wax, the sapling will unambiguously die about any biological properties of material and protective layer the speech cannot go.
