Continue deep
watering (especially immediately prior to any spraying). Keep up
monthly fertilizing. Cut spent blooms and seal canes. Alternate type
of sprays for both insects and diseases. Often spraying for disease
is not needed during the heat of summer. Do not spray when
temperatures are over 85 degrees. Wear protective clothing and
goggles, gloves, mask and sturdy shoes. Wash protective clothing
separately from other clothing and remember to clean off eyeglasses.
Apply additional mulch around bushes to bring level to several
inches deep to conserve water and keep the soil cooler.
