I just bought a 5-Gal Giant Timber bamboo and transplanted to the ground (using MricleGrow Vegetable and Flower soil) for about 2 weeks and have been watering them twice daily; however, the some of the leaves are turning yellow. What's with the bamboo? Does it need any OTHER kinds of fertilizer? or is it not enough water?
Bamboo Transplanted?
Bamboo is hard to transplant. It helps to keep in mind that it is a grass not a tree or a vegetable. I would call any of the larger nurseries and ask them which fertilizers to use.

Bamboo plants anyone??????
i took a bamboo plant from a place nearby and planted it in a pot. there was not many roots at all and the leaves look dry. this mornig it looked likeit came back to life, the leaves were full and alive, then in the afternoon they dried out in like two hours. What should i do? will it live or should i give up on it? i also found a rootless bamboo shoot and i stuck it in the ground will that grow at all????

Meera is right. Bamboo can get away from you when it finally takes hold. In its natural tropical habitat it can grow a foot a day! Obviously that won't happen here. But the roots can get so thick they will stall out a gas lawnmower. I know, my grandpop planted this stuff.
If you like the way it looks, get some large pots and grow it in the containers, this way it can't take over your yard.
It is a very hardy "weed". Water it and use basic fertilizer like 10-10-10 and it'll take off. We tried to kill it with rock salt, gasoline and whatever we could find in the shed to no avail. Industrial strength Roundup finally wiped it out of granpops yard. So in light of that I gurantee your root stub will take hold.
Reply:hon, bamboo grows wildly..r u sure this is what u want to do?? In my neighborhood there is a break in the land and there is wild bamboo %26amp; it looks so awful!!
But if you must-they need full sunlight and shade too-just like in the jungles-water %26amp; fertilize aggressively. A humid room is best for them.
Reply:I know that bamboo is a different type of plant. They reproduce by sending out shoots from the base of the plant along the ground quite a ways that will become new trees.
Reply:Are you sure it's bamboo? I was told the plant I was given is indoor bamboo but when I looked it up, on line, I learned differently. OK...I just used the Research your Answer field and...well, go see. I was wrong. I'm going to go look at pictures and find out what I have. Thanks for the question, I'll learn something good too! My bamboo is the second web site. Good luck with yours.

Bamboo fun should I buy?
Well my problem is that I am really interested in buying a graphics tablet for anime/manga drawings. However the only one that fits my budget is bamboo fun small. All I wanna ask is that for my kinda drawings wpould the size suphise, will it be i enough? The size is approx A6. If it doesnt then which tablet should i buy? Cause my budget is only about 60 pounds or so whic is for a bamboo fun small. Plz help
thnx
Bamboo fun should I buy?
Think of it in the way you draw. If you like to draw small on paper then using a small tablet won't be a problem. Personally I would find A6 far too small for drawing. It wouldn't allow enough sweep of the hand to fit with my work. I use an A3 Wacom which seems to suit my drawing style fine.
Don't buy the cheapest if it doesn't suit you . Better to wait %26amp; save a bit of money then get the one which meets your needs.
Check around - you can pick up a bargain on a Wacom Graphire.

Bamboo was a plant........?
i got sum bamboo from a shop in the mall i thout i would move it to another container will it be ok and whats sum helpful info on havin bamboo
Bamboo was a plant........?
There are many varieties of bamboo. If your talking about the indoor ornament bamboo variety, you could transfer the plant to another vase or pot and just put some water. You don't have to worry the plant of growing bigger and taller because you can trim it.
And that's it. Good luck!
Reply:Bamboo is easy to transplant and very hardy. One warning though, if you plant it outdoors, it will spread rapidly and it's hard to contain to a specific area.
Reply:There are many vatieties of clumping bamboo that are NOT invasive. And the stuff you got at the mall is probably Dracaena, its a lilly, not bamboo
Reply:OH BALONEY!!! Bamboo is easy to grow and will fill any container you put it in...want more? Get a bigger pot. Like other grasses, bamboo grows to a predetermined height for its particular type...Only "timber" bamboo can bust through a roof and the first shoots are the same height as the last ones so what is that guy talking about??? Just water when soil is dry to the touch...fertilize in the spring when it sends up new shoots...easy!
Reply:Bamboo is the fastest growing grass in the world, growing as much as 1cm a day. Experts tend to say to keep bamboo outdoors as there have been numerous cases of the bamboo breaking through the roofs of unsespecting plant enthusiasts homes.

Bamboo problem? PLEASE HELP?
Hi, I have some bamboo shading set up in a house in the Persian gulf were the heat is over 45c !!! I noticed that it starts crack open in some places. Any idea if this is normal or will this bamboo be damaged and lose its strength? and if so how can i resolve this problem?
Bamboo problem? PLEASE HELP?
it is OK to crack. but you can solve this problem by irrigating you bamboo more regularly. uneven watering is the cause of cracks.
