Hi, what is the wattage of your lights?
36-150 watts thanks
@@growproteas1148 Thanks!!
Absolutely brilliant advice, thanks so much 💖
thanks ... good luck with your plants
The video would be more helpful if you disclosed where it is. Bamboo will freeze of course, so presumably you are in southern Florida or possibly Hawaii or southern California. Viewers should know that for bamboo to be used in construction it must be cured and treated to resist termites as well as fungal infestations, mold and rot. In construction it cannot com in contact with the ground or it will rot, so poles must be set in concrete footings or the like. So, fencing is impractical. Your bamboo actually looks a bit like guadua, (guadua angustifolia) a type of Giant bamboo used for construction and grown chiefly in Colombia, although plantations are sprouting up in the Philippines, Indonesia and Africa. It is used in construction for low-cost housing as well as for resorts. Guadua is a thorny species of bamboo, however, and yours shows no thorns. You can see more about guadua and bamboo construction simply by googling it.
I'm in sacramento ca - I does freeze here in the winter occasionally - down to 26. Turns out to be Vivax bamboo
I always thought we were supposed to soften the medium and loosen up the roots prior to repotting, but if this way works, it'll be so much easier for me to repot going forward.
yes - I don't want to damage the roots - so I just pop it in a bigger pot
@@growproteas1148 Would you say this pot sizing up approach works with other plants like Monsteras and Philodendrons?
@@andylise08 yes - most people won't grow beyond 5-6 gallon pots
Thats the type of garden i want
good luck - it takes years but bamboo grows super fast....
LOVE your video. your wife is such a good sport
thanks - yes wife is a great sport!!!
All my anthuriums so far are seedlings or seeds i bought to grow on. I find them pretty easy to grow, both indoors and bush house situations. My first seed-grown crystallinum x clarinervum? have beautiful reddish new leaves, glittery shiny white veins and velvety leaves the size of my hand in 18 months. A few made lovely gifts for friends. Im so excited to see how big the leaves get. 😂 An exercise in patience, but i do enjoy growing from seed, very satisfying. Just got a baby veitchii, very exciting, and some dark leaved crosses. Queen next. 😂❤
that is awesome... new update video soon
Please drop a link to where you get your plastic pots. :D
pots are called - hydrofarm pots
Sir I want a your bamboo seeds
seeds are made only once every 150 years - to propagate the plant you plants root cuttings..
wow! cute
thanks!
Just wow 😮❤
thanks! Good luck with your plants
Great video sir!
thanks!
You have given me confidence!!!! I purchased this plant and waiting on its arrival. I live in Houston so I hope I can grow this plant and not kill it!!!!
with your higher humidity you should well ..
These plants are so big, they scared me 😮

I know what kind of bamboo that is… THE KIND I WANT! Lol The only BAMBOO I can get my hands on that is alive is out of Kroger’s and they all are the size of a straw I want some giant bamboo I want some giant alive bamboo I don’t think I can grow any from seeds because I suck at greenery but I would love to have some of that.
It is Phyllostachys vivax - i see it for sale at some bamboo nurseries
I am scared to use spagnum moss on the roots. I put it on the top. Nice tips on the collar!
All my plants do well in spagnum moss - but I live in a low humidity area
@@growproteas1148 I have not had success with moss during propagation so it is not my go too. I have found that putting it around the collar of Anthuriums do a good job with root growth. I actually repotted my plants after watching your vids, but I used something called Pafcal instead of my mix. My Anthurium got battered this Spring with hail and it has not been doing well with growth so I am trying to baby it.
@@hennesseyme9112 good luck!
I grow giant plants but I had no idea Anthurium could get this big! Guess what I'll be buying on payday! Thanks for the gorgeous video and hope you have had an awesome year! :)
thanks so much - update video soon
What exact kind of Bamboo is this? can they get bigger?
this groove is full grown - the shoots get bigger as they grow - it is Vivax bamboo
@@growproteas1148 Awesome thanks! I think what I'm looking for is Dendrocalamus giganteus (Giant Bamboo) which should get even bigger :)
Hi thanks for this video!! I was wondering if you know anywhere that soils the growstone gs-2 aroid mix that you used? I can’t seem to find it anywhere online. Or do you know any good available alternatives? Thanks so much!

Most underrated plant channel on CZcams. Doing a video your anthuriums soon. Will link! Most people don't get it but this guy gets it.
thanks so much... new update soon
Hello, I am wondering when starting new grove, from rhizomes, what is the growth rate over time, and what age would they be expected to reach a height of 20 feet? Thank you!
sorry not something I can answer - my grove was present when I got here - but it does grow very fast
it depend of the specie, weather, soil etc... but i'd say 3-4 years. Vivax grow big and high fast but they're weak, they have very thin walls so they're pretty much useless, they just look good and impressive and are good to eat.
Thank you for the wonderful information ! I have small baby anthuriums growing on sphagnum moss and was thinking of putting them in pon. Hoping they will do good. But I’ll experiment with one in moss and another in pon and see how each grow. But the pot size and humidity was new to me! Thank you sir for the great information! 😊
thanks good luck!
Do you sell any?
I did sell 1 queen and 1 king - new update video soon...

Beautiful, beautiful plant. I’m just considering getting an Anthurium but was hesitant. You’ve given me the inspiration I needed to give it a try. I think I can do this. Thanks so very much!
yes you can grow them in any household...
Such great videos! I live in Phoenix so even hotter. Think my best bet is to germinate banskia and grevillias which have a better chance to survive our brutal summers. Saw a Australian article where they use cotton balls/fiber but I like the paper towel method. Liked your custom potting mix and tip about the hot water to sterilize, skipping the whole seed starter mix. A local grower near you uses Liquid Smoke which you can get at a local grocery store and also mentioned on Australian sites. 1 to 10 ratio with water. Grevilleas are more difficult to geminate than banksias, would you use the same exact process? Comments by Australians or anyone on grevilleas on having success would be great.
I germinated a few grevilleas seeds from my own plant - no smoke water was used - put in a small pot in October outside and by December they germinated
@@growproteas1148 Really appreciate the response! Think I can grow them in Phoenix? 109 today. Any suggestions on a South African variety since they grow in a much more moderate climate that Sacramento or Phoenix? If I go to San Diego anyone or retail grower to checkout? I understand cuttings flower much better with some of the Australian protea? Huge thanks from us learning so much. Love your systematic approach and solid research. You are probably and engineer. Thinking I can join the local society/club in San Diego. Seems they have sales to.
@@growproteas1148 OK? Was told they were more a challange than Banksia that seem easy.
@@roytate3889 I think trying to grow these plants in Phoenix is an uphill battle - they would need to be in the shade - you could call it an experiment to see if possible...
@@roytate3889 I find grevillias much easier to grow than banksia
I would love to grow this bamboo in Norway. I have so many projects to do where i could utilize it.

Very nice grove. They have no side barcnhes or thorns. I wish i can have some too.
I have some growing in pots...
You've covered everything except temperatures. I bought a Veitchii and have it in my heated cabinet because our temps are between 4c-18c during winter. We don't have central heating here. It will come out in spring. Am I doing the right thing?
these plants don't like temp below 14c so yes keep it warm anyway you can - in my home lows in the winter are about 14c at night...
Evening. I know this video is 5 years old, but, the brakes, I am looking at the new generation L8 brakes they have and I have found some reviews that say the setup can be a bit finicky if the cable length is slightly off, did you find any issue setting them up? Do you still have them?
@justsomedude7556 yes still riding the bike with the brakes... no issue with brakes... would recommend them
@@growproteas1148 So the setup was not a problem? I currently am running some current version Ultegra's, but they are a bit tight when I try an install 30mm tires on the front wheel. So looking at these since they can handle up to a 32mm. For $400, I don't want to have to spend 5 hours trying to make them work because they had 3mm of additional cable.
@@justsomedude7556 I'm running 26mm to make it easy on myself - bike shop installed them for me - they didn't mention any problems
