My Lucky Bamboo is not growing ?

Question

I have a Lucky Bamboo plant, I do not see it growing, I am watering it with Mineral water and it does not look yellow but at the same time, does not look like its growing, how do I ensure that it does not die and it grows?

Answer 1

How long have you had it? Just make sure you keep it watered. Nice and wet all the time.

Mine died because I let it dry out but before that it was getting out of control.

Answer 2

O.K -i would follow the advice given so far about reasonable watering & sunlight.(these people have had good practical experience).

~~Then I would ask at a garden centre for bamboo management advice..

~~Then I would do an extensive Google search on "growing & caring for bamboo plants"!

~~I f you are in a cold country like the U.K. ~I would move the plant indoors -esp in winter.

cheers.

Answer 3

Bamboo likes lots of light, and repotting it in very fertile soil helps. Add some miracle grow, and mix some sugar in the water - helps it grow. Though bamboo does take a long time to grow.

Answer 4

We have bamboo forests here, and a single stick can grow about 2 feet in 24 hours, so just be sure to give it lots of sunlight and don't over water.
