Answer 1

Stop feeding roses six weeks before the first frost in your area.

This site tells you how to prepare your roses for winter:

Good luck with your roses! Hope this was helpful.

Answer 2

You probably should have stopped in July. Don't feed your roses anymore this summer. Feeding them will encourage new growth and even if it's 100 degrees right now, that first frost isn't too far away.

Answer 3

I haven't lived in quite those conditions; I would suggest contacting a local nursery who will know about the feeding schedule for your area and climate. The furthest north I got was Colorado!
