Whatâs the weather like in the Lake Chapala area? How does it affect our lives here? At approx. 5,000 ft. above sea level, surrounded by mountains, and with the Lake our area has only a moderate temperature variation from month to month and season to season.
Yes blood meal can be used on roses usually at 2 TBS per MATURE rose bush if needed... opinions may vary but that is mine... I have Dr Earth bloodmeal which calls for 1 cup but I think that is way to much for mature roses... Like I said if to much is used then roots can be burned or lack of flowering may happen...
You will be using the bottom of the milk jug as a pot, and the top of the soda bottle to form a greenhouse. Cut large drainage holes in the bottom of the milk jug, and fill it with moist potting media. The best cutting for most roses is a stem with a dead flower on it, with four to six sets of leaves. If possible, get the heel wood where the stem emerges from the main cane. If you cannot get a heel, cut below a leaf bud. Cut off the dead flower and remove all but two sets of leaves from your cutting.
