Can you recommend a clumping zone 4 variety.
I'm so overwhelmed with all the options.
I planted 3 bamboo roots I found on a creek bank in Alabama 35 years ago when I was a teen. I cut off the bamboo a few inches tall and then dug up the root about as long as yours. I planted it just like I dug it up (a few inches) in an area behind my parents garage that was about 300 feet by 150 feet. It was a slopped area that wasn't very usable and difficult to cut. Within 10-15 years it was almost covered. Now its a beautiful oasis that contains a very large population of birds. To walk into it is like another world. It's amazing. I was just messing around when I planted it and did not know if it would work. I never even watered it.
Next time you go to dig bamboo plants bring a cordless sawzall and cut about a 12 inch circle in the dirt and then just pop root clump out with a shovel. It will save loads of work.
If willing, please keep us updated with the progress on this; how difficult it is start, grow, manage and what you learn along the way! Thanks.
Will do!
My dad planted bamboo down by the river 40 yrs ago by burying a long bamboo pole. It sprouted from the joints and now is a huge thicket
I thought you would get more push back from the uneducated on bamboo. Love bamboo! Darrell is a TN treasure, your pretty handy as well,keeep it up!
can you grow it from seed, and how?
Nice
I wish I knew where I could get some bamboo. It's supposed to be native around here, but I've not seen any yet. I want to plant some on my property for my goats.
You can order some from Lewis bamboo
@@NaturesAlwaysRight I am checking them out. Bamboo is NOT cheap.
I use a sawzall on an old blade
Have you looked at American River cane, a native species?
No where near the quality of bamboo. Watch my video on invasive vs native. czcams.com/video/UPmpPBMgCmk/video.html
@@NaturesAlwaysRight Nature is sort of mostly right then. Native gigantea river cane is excellent for privacy, fodder, habitat regrowth, and is endandered.
In growing Bamboo, does the "Moso"? (I think its called. Its the giant Bamboo) does it grow like what you are growing in the video?
(Mary from KY)
Yes. It's not as cold hardy as some other species, though. I think zone 7 is about the limit for moso to grow without dying back every winter, and I think most of Kentucky is zone 6.
Cordless
Can you do a video on how to get rid of it? We have been trying for 15 years.
Here's how I would do it. czcams.com/video/pI4GaU9nNAs/video.html
I’ve been pouring hot vinegar, salt, and dawn soap mix. Works like a charm. Love bamboo, just not where previous owners planted (by the house)
@@angelaphan3346 Thanks! I'll give that a try.
@@angelaphan3346 No water? I'm trying this this week.
@@workinprogress3609 no water! I boiled 1 gallon of vinegar, about 4 cups of salt and 1/3 cup of dawn soap. You can make smaller batches, but always use at least 1 cup of salt. They’re so pesky & hard to get rid of, but this really worked. I came back 2-3 times a week to pour more just to make sure it’s dead.
I love bambo, but not been successful growing in here in zone 6!
What species did you try? Phyllostachys bissetti, Phyllostachys nuda, and Phyllostachys atrovaginata should all be plenty hardy in zone 6. Probably Phyllostachys aureosulcata, too, and maybe some others, too.
@@patrickcleburneuczjsxpmp9558 I will have to give it a try. Thx!
What's the Latin name for flute maker's bamboo? And why did you choose to plant that particular species?
Phyllostachys rubromarginata - Good tasting shoots and a high quality wood, durable in outdoor applications, and you can make flutes!
@@darrellluck7230 Thank you! I've planted several species of bamboo but so far have mostly been harvesting poles from a neighbor's large, well-established grove of Ph. aureosulcata down the road. The biggest limitation I've found in terms of durability is powder post beetles, and the damage they cause seem to be about equally bad whether the bamboo is outdoors or under shelter. If powder post beetles are an issue in your area, have you noticed any differences between species in terms of how badly and quickly powder post beetles eat up harvested poles? When you speak about durability in outdoor applications, is it mainly powder post beetles that are limiting the durability of your poles or just rot?
@@patrickcleburneuczjsxpmp9558 I have not had any trouble from power post beetles indoors or outdoors. In outdoor applications, the poles eventually split and slowly rot after many years of use.
@@darrellluck7230 Thanks again very much! I think I read somewhere a long time ago that the range of the species of powder post beetles that's primarily affecting my bamboo poles doesn't extend very far north at all, although my climate is pretty similar to most of Tennessee. Maybe your part of Tennessee is just far enough north that they're not a problem. At the extreme I've seen bamboo poles just crumble by the end of the first growing season, but other poles have just had minor damage after several years. I'm still trying to figure out what makes the difference. I'm pretty sure species of bamboo makes a big difference. I also wonder about time of year the poles are harvested, age of the poles at harvest, initial storage conditions...
@@patrickcleburneuczjsxpmp9558 I think the age of your poles might be the most important factor to consider. 3 to 4 year old poles would be the best. Poles younger than that would not have had time to harden up all the way. Poles older than that are on their way downhill, though too old would be better than too young.
No way would I knowingly let that onto my property. They are very invasive around here (zone 5b).
Watch my video on invasives, czcams.com/video/UPmpPBMgCmk/video.html
I bought seeds but they wont germinate 😡
Me too
Afaik it takes a long time 1-2yrs from seed.
@acctsys 1 to 2 years to germinate? As in wet seed , sitting, looking like a piece of dirt for 2 years until a rootlet pops out?
@@ryangooseling Yes, if memory serves me right. It's why rhizomes or "seedlings" are the way to go.
@@acctsys oh-k ....so commercial growers who grow from seed sit on wet seeds for 2 years to grow a plant for 3 to 5 more, yet a 1 gal bamboo only costs $35. That doesn't make sense.
I definitely wouldn't expect full-sized culms by the 5th year, not even under the best conditions. I'd expect something like 15 years.
Good luck getting rid of it when you want to
I won't. Watch this, czcams.com/video/UPmpPBMgCmk/video.html
