Hi Every one,
I'm brand new here, and I have two questions that I hope to get some help for. My most pressing is, what is the most effective yet least toxic way to prevent damp-off in my rose seedlings? I've tried the 1/19 hydrogen-peroxide to water drench with some success, but don't know how often to use it. ( oops, here's another seedling question. Should I sterilize the commercial seed starter before I plant? thought it would have been already, maybe not.)The other question is, where to find rare roses that are grafted. I'm all for own root roses for old and robust shrub varieties, but where I live, Hybrid teas and floribundas do better grafted on robust stock and planted deep. I'm specifically looking for Smokey and Jocelyn, also other marvelous and strange colors ( have you seen Paul Bardens photo of a striped Jocelyn? GORGEOUS!!!!).
Thank you very much for taking time to help!!!!
