Is the point to save trees? What about saving the bamboo?

All goofiness aside, bamboo is much more renewable than trees, however few if any bamboo commercial groves live in my neck of the US therefore I do see this as an imported product to the Pacific Northwest area of the US. To my way of thinking locally made paper towels only 20 miles away bamboo who knows how much fuel used to get to my home.....Toss up cause I love the idea of reusing and tossable combined.

Less waste, and less, yes trees destroyed. Bamboo grows like a weed and is far more renewable than trees which take years to mature.

These bamboo towels can be used, washed and then reused. The average life of 1 bamboo towel is 20 washings. So 1 bamboo sheet can take the place of 20 paper sheets. So they are not used like the typical paper towel. I hope this answer helps.

Bamboo is a grass. It grows up to 24 inches a day. I don't think you need to worry about saving the bamboo.

Yes true... they will grow better. I also had some liquid food to their water. Keeps them dark green... Happy Bamboo :-)

Hi, I am not an expert, but from what I've read, the fresher the logs the better, because they still have a good bit of sapwood left inside. I would go ahead and plug them.

Yes, but it is more useful for hard, woody stuff - twigs and small branches. Leaves don't compact so much and tend to fill up the pile at the output rather quickly.

Not sure about Bamboo but it can be used on bushes and plants. Its used around the outside of houses as a barrier. I actually used it on my little fir trees for mites last year and it didnt hurt the trees at all. If you google it you can get the pdf label off the bottle and read it.

None of them sprouted for me. Growing bamboo from seed is a very slow and failure prone process. In four years - if you are lucky, you will have one or two spindly little things a couple feet high. Buy a section of root instead.

Haven't used it on bamboo but it will go through a 2" tree branch with very little effort.

neither! It is a very aggressive grower like running bamboo, but it is not classified at all as a bamboo species also. this plant reproduces by the spores that come from some single shoots that appear almost cone like on the top.

I don't have bamboo plants so I don't know if they require a special diet like roses or orchids. Ortherwise this should work for allhouse plants. Hope this will help you.

It is my understanding that bamboo is sustainable, grows quickly. Pesticides and herbicides are used heavily on cotton crops, harming the environment.

I haven't tried that. If I can find some trees here in the next couple of days, I will send you a answer. Barbara

A general purpose is fine. Osmocote plus is great. Mix into the soil, and water thoroughly. Re apply every couple months based on how often you have to water. I bought this same tree about 12 months ago and mine is doing fantastic.

you can keep together,or if you like,take one or as many as you like and tie them with string or leave them single.as long as roots submerged in water or in damp soil.Just don't let them dry out.try bamboo left together and getting some stones,place bamboo in a container with no hole.put stones around to top and fill with water will grow just fine.better than a houseplant.just remember the water.hope this helps.

I'm sure it will if it's planted in the ground. I planted mine in pots an of course the roots froze this winter, my mistake. Bamboo is typically very resilient so I'm sure it would do fine once established in the ground.

It's imported from The East for Eastern Feng Shui practices. I love them & my experience has been wonderful. Bit of you want bamboo in your house as a house plant or strictly for looks, my belief is that any plant you choose for that purpose will work.

yes sprinkle 2 heaping table spoons around tree and work it in the soil---add some type of old manure or compost and work in also---
