Roses also like blood meal; or you can buy the shake and fertilize specifically for "Roses." If you think you have a lot of blooms now .. wait till you fertilize them :) After 3 years of waiting, my climbing roses are producing huge blooms, pretty excited. One is climing over our storage shed, two are trying to reach the top of my pergola, and the final two are going over the arbor entrance to my vegetable garden. Really looking forward to seeing them in full bloom this season. As for Vegi's .. we've had horrible luck starting ours in our green house this year. This entire spring has been mostly cold and overcast. We still have mornings in the high 40's and just had an overcast day at only 68 degrees (as a high) .. All our starts are very thin, light green, and leaning toward what little sun is available for them. I bought nursery heating pads for them, which keeps the soil temp at the correct setting per type of vegi .. but man .. it's looking like we might be without hatch chili's this year for sure, and unless we can find a bargin on 10 tomato plants, we might be without those also. It's been a very very odd spring for us in Indiana. -tG --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/05/03 (Raspberry Pi/32) * Origin: The Underground (21:1/165) .
