You can certainly apply the Dynamic Lifter Pellets to your roses. This product can be used on all garden plants and it can be applied every 6 - 8 weeks during the growing season. There is no need to add anything else if you are using the product on a regular basis.
Alfalfa is one of the best overall organic amendments, resulting in more vigorous growth and increased bloom production. Coffee grounds can be sprinkled around the base of rose bushes at any time during the growing season for a boost of nitrogen.
Important note: Dynamic Lifter should not be used on Australian native plants that are sensitive to phosphorus.
A high-quality organic fish fertiliser (such as Charlie Carp) in either a liquid or pellet form is perfect to provide these nutrients to the plant. Charlie Carp is a perfect fit for roses as it can also be mixed with other green products such as Eco-Oil and Eco-Fungicide, providing defence against pests and diseases.
Dynamic Lifter is especially suited to flower beds and vegetable patches, shrubs, roses, fruit trees and potted plants, including native plants. It can be mixed into the soil underneath as a booster when planting out seedlings, shrubs or trees, and reapplied as a side dressing during the growing season.
Suitable for all plants including natives. Pelletised for easy application. Added Blood and Bone, fishmeal and seaweed organically enriches and improves the soil.
Apply Seasol regularly for several months before any fertilising is done. Once the tree is starting to respond to the Seasol treatment, apply an organic fertiliser such as Dynamic Lifter, blood and bone or slow-release tree tablets. Note: Sadly, some trees will be damaged beyond repair.
Well-rotted manure or garden compost dug in before planting will help stimulate strong root growth. We do not recommend the use of mushroom compost. When planting in the autumn, plant with Bone Meal and mulch with manure and compost around the top. Please remember not to work soil that is very wet.
Boosts soil health, improves soil moisture and nutrient retention. Increases worm and microbial activity. Safe on roses and all flowering plants.
A regular, generous application of well rotted animal manure or compost and blood and bone are perfect for roses. Avoid manure from animals that eat meat and use chicken manure sparingly - as these are too acidic for roses.
The great thing about Dynamic Lifter pellets is that they are so gentle they won't burn the roots even if it is dry at the time you spread them.
It provides complete plant nutrition with slow release organic nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for better root growth, stronger plants and more flowers and fruit.
Dynamic Lifter pellets can be difficult to manage if you are mowing your lawn regularly during the warmer months. It is best to apply it in early spring or autumn when the grass isn't growing as quickly. This will give it more time to break down for a longer period of time before mowing.
They are a fast-acting source for magnesium and sulfur. For soils on the alkaline side, the added sulfur is a benefit. Epsom salts, however, do not contain any of the three major components of most fertilizers—nitrogen, phosphorus or potassium—and therefore would not be a complete fertilizer for roses.
Rose leaves turn yellow because the pH of the soil is too high, or there's not enough iron in the soil. It can also be caused by a lack of oxygen when the plants are overwatered or the soil doesn't drain easily. You may see the leaf veins turn yellow while the leaves are still green.
After completing pruning during winter it is best to spray roses with Lime Sulphur. This helps to eliminate fungal spores and eggs from pests, giving you a fresh start come spring. This is especially important for rose gardens that have trouble with black spot and mildew during the growing season.
Fertilize your roses a minimum of twice a year: once in spring, and once again in mid to late summer. In between, look to feed roses every month to ensure healthy growth.
Feeding your roses twice a year will encourage strong, healthy growth and abundant flowering. It's a relatively quick and simple task, yet is one of the most beneficial jobs you can do to ensure that your roses are at their most healthy and floriferous when summer arrives.
A good base of lots of cow manure when you plant your rose bush is extremely important. Composted cow manure delivers a large variety of nutrients to your rose bushes over several years. It is well worth it to spend a little more at the beginning to give your plants the nutrients they need for years to come.
Roses like a heavy soil, therefore a loam based compost is ideal. Roses hate competition, so just give your rose a pot to itself. Roses need plenty of food and water for healthy growth and plenty of flowers.
You can't overdose on Seasol. It's not a Fertiliser. But it does have amazing healing qualities. One capful in a 10 litre watering can will treat around 4m2.
Do not apply Seasol and PowerFeed during the heat of the day. As PowerFeed is a fertiliser it may burn the foliage of the plant or lawn. If fungal problems are an issue, it is best to apply Seasol and PowerFeed in the morning to avoid moisture residue on the foliage overnight.
Mix 100g per square metre into soil prior to planting, and then re-apply as a side dressing every six weeks during the growing season. Starting 15cm from the plant trunk, apply 50g to 100g per square metre, in spring and again in autumn (higher rate for fast-growing plants).
