Thanks! I learned a lot. I have some Bisetti on order to add some shade and privacy to a nice but very open yard. Some of it might enhance a little porch fountain/waterfall project too. I know a lot more now about dealing with Bamboo!
Thank you for an awesome video!

Your team did a great job installing and planting my bamboo in a redwood conainer. Do you have seperate video for the harvest and replanting for a redwood contanier. Do I need to cut the plastic at the permiter ?
Thanks for making this video. I just planted bamboo in stock tanks and wondered what I'd need to do in 7 or 8 years

I’m no expert here, but I am thinking that based on the plethora of videos I have now consumed on the subject and the info I’ve seen in them, that if you keep your roots tidy and short they will probably always be fine in stock pots, but as they continue to grow the roots become as long as the bamboo is tall so you may want to take them out on occasion, and either divide them up or just keep on those roots because they will eventually break through unless the pots are sturdy enough to withstand that type of growth. I also noticed, yesterday, when I divided up some of my sons literal forest in his backyard, that those roots are also as thick as the bamboo it’s self, so you will definitely need a saw to get through them and make sure the rhizomes are still healthy and whole. Hope this helped some. Happy gardening!!!

At least the roots are shallow … but they’re work when one is trying to cut through them, thus the saw. 😉
Best guide to runners, would some details may be different for clumpers?
@bamboosourcery
11 ай бұрын
The clumpers wouldn't have the roots running around the edges, but they'd still be dug out the same way.
Which are quicker to grow, Buds or shoots?
How often do you water in spring?
I'm about to become a bambooster myself. I just got a container and am bamboo shopping. What kind of bamboo is this? I really like the kind with the green stripes.
Thank you so much for an other beatifull video about bamboo and roots 🤩 , just a question , last summer i bought a similar bamboo of 3 years old (phylo aureo sulcata) that i planted last september , no it seems having a new shoot near the mother one ,do you think i can have more during this spring /summer ? thanks in advance

Question about drainage in the tank. Tanks have usually 1 drain opening aprox 3/4 or 1in..... I saw you lined the bottom with 3/4 stone...... How deep was the stone? Were more drain holes cut thru the tank? That would mess up the galvanizing and cause them to rust fast. Enjoyed the Vid.
@bamboosourcery
Жыл бұрын
We add drainage holes all around, 3/4", 1.5' apart, all around the bottom of the sides. We put a few inches of drain rock as well. We don't see much rusting.
Great video! What happens if you were to just leave the bamboo in the container and not transfer any stalks to a new one? Like, will the bamboo die if I just leave it in its original container like the ones you have, or will it simply not grow any larger? ( You mentioned something about leaves falling, but I wasn't sure if that was permanent or why exactly.) I would like to try this on my property, but would like them to remain in their original containers basically "forever" so as I age it's easier for myself and my family to maintain. (I grow all of my garden plants in containers because it's much easier for me, but bamboo is a bit intimidating to try though I always wanted to)

If you never maintain them by splitting the roots when they fill in, the bamboo will get rootbound. When it gets rootbound, it won't be able to take up any water or nutrients through its roots. It will starve. Then it might even stress flower. Then it will die.

How are these dense rootsystems for burning? Assumung they are dried for a while. They probably have a decent burn value?

Yes. We actually make bamboo biochar out of them.
I just planted a dozen bamboo in galvanized stock tanks. I went with the forty gallon, 1 foot depth which fit better in my truck from Tractor Supply. 4 foot by 2 foot by 1 foot. It looks like you have 100 gallon stock tanks here. 4 foot by 2 foot by 2 foot depth. I drilled holes in the base about 1/2 inch diameter. I used some stones and cloth on the bottom. I can always drill more holed around the bottom of the sides I'll need to consider drilling more holes. I also put the pots on dollies so I can wheel them around! I hope they grow into the 15 foot beauties you have there. Do you suggest adding fertilizer?

Cool! Yes, it's great that you drilled extra holes in the tanks. We recommend quarterly fertilizer. This is the one we like: www.groworganic.com/products/bio-turf-8-3-5-fertilizer-25-lb-bag

They are Spectabilis. bamboosourcery.com/product/phyllostachys-aureosulcata-spectabilis-phas/ We get them from a feed supply store. They are 2' tall x 2' wide x 6' long.
Thank you for making this video and for uploading your zoom presentation. I have not been able to find a raised bed with a bottom. What would you suggest to put at the bottom so the roots don't escape? Would a layer on the ground below the rocks of tree barrier be sufficient?

Probably not, since you do need drainage. We recommend clumpers in raised beds or boxes without bottoms.

That is not the right method for running bamboo. You end up multiple plant in each chunk
