    Dang girl! This is another great video! I’m a new sub and am about to binge. Bambusa Slender weaver is my obsession. Your advice is brilliant.
    Thanks for the efforts 🙏☺️

    I thought once you cut the bamboo, it would no longer grow; why are you using dangerous chemicals especially if you’re going to consider eating?

      Not true, most bamboos come back even after cutting. I do not eat this type of bamboo or anything near it. It grows a little more then I like so I cut and treat it a little bit to keep it smaller.

    Love the bamboo videos, please keep them coming. Bamboo plants are super interesting to me. I'm not sure what kind but I got some clumping bamboo from a friend and planted them in my backyard several months ago I now have about 6 healthy plants that are about 5 foot tall. I'm hoping they start growing faster soon. Any tips on helping them grow any faster? Thanks

      Bamboo likes water, compost, mulch and fertilizer with N and K. Just give it some love.

      Let me know if you try it and it works. You can also use Round up at 50 to 100 percent strength.

    Use a tiller. Ditch the herbicide

      That’s an idea but sounds backbreaking. Maybe a backhoe. My bamboo is so big I think the tiller would lose.

      @@TiaSilvasy I do like your Idea . But as for the tiller ,it is not how big they are , but how hard they are . and of course how big of a tiller you have . But applying herbicide with a paint brush was great , Not everyone has a tractor or a large Troy built tiller . Sorry if I came across as a know it all dumb ass . After I read my comment , I could see It was badly worded and I wasn't trying to be like that at all

    how old this tall clump is, and is it planted from seeds level or older roots ?

      This clump is about 50 ft tall. I purchased it in a 3 gallon pot from Beautiful Bamboo in Groveland, FL.
