Rose

Water

Too dry to grow on rain alone. It would need irrigation.

Needs about 1,360 mm of water here in its growing months. Rain gives about 260 mm it can use in a normal year, and 170 mm in a dry year.

Temperature

Grows best at 20–24 °C on average, and survives 11–35 °C.

Here, in its growing months (day / night):

• Jun 40 °C / 28 °C (outside its best range)
• Jul 36 °C / 27 °C (outside its best range)
• Aug 34 °C / 26 °C (outside its best range)
• Sep 35 °C / 24 °C (outside its best range)
• Oct 35 °C / 18 °C (outside its best range)
• Nov 30 °C / 12 °C
• Dec 23 °C / 7 °C (outside its best range)
• Jan 20 °C / 6 °C (outside its best range)
• Feb 24 °C / 9 °C (outside its best range)
• Mar 31 °C / 15 °C
• Apr 38 °C / 21 °C (outside its best range)
• May 42 °C / 26 °C (outside its best range)
• Jun 40 °C / 28 °C (outside its best range)

Months in orange are outside its best range.

Days in June get hotter than it likes. Young plants need shade and water then.

Soil

Soil for Rose: 7 out of 10 (okay).

• The pH here suits it.
• Most fields here are short of nitrogen.
• Most fields here are short of potassium.
• Most fields here are short of organic carbon.

Likes pH 6.0–7.0.

Money

Yield: about 70 quintals an acre, the typical figure across India (no figures for your state).

A new planting gives its first real harvest after about 2 years. The money here is for plants already bearing.

Rain gives it too little of the water it needs, so there's no income figure on rain alone: grow it only with irrigation.
