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...
I used bloodmeal this year for the very first time, and I've been rose gardening for about 7 years total. I buy all of my roses from Roses Unlimited here in S.C. and that's where I got the idea of using it. They suggest using it at the start of each season. They suggested 1/2 cup of bloodmeal, and because this is the first time using it I cut that amount in half and only used 1/4 cup for each rose plant.
