What does it look like when lucky bamboo grows too long?

If lucky bamboo grows too tall during maintenance, it will grow too fast and only grow taller but not longer. The leaves will also be duller and will gradually fall off, making it look sparse. This is not conducive to its growth and development and will affect its ornamental value.

Reasons for the growth of lucky bamboo

1. When caring for lucky bamboo and causing it to grow too tall, if there is insufficient light or the light is uneven, it will cause the plant to grow too tall and all the nutrients will be concentrated on growing taller. Therefore, appropriate light must be provided during maintenance.

2. During the maintenance period of lucky bamboo, if you water it too much, it will be more likely to grow too tall, and it will be detrimental to the growth of the root system. In addition, too much fertilizer when fertilizing will also cause it to grow too tall, especially excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer.

How to deal with the excessive growth of lucky bamboo

1. When lucky bamboo begins to grow too tall, you can place it in a place with sufficient light for maintenance. Although it is a shade plant, sufficient sunlight can allow it to carry out photosynthesis, which is extremely beneficial to the growth of the plant.

2. When caring for lucky bamboo, you need to water and fertilize it reasonably. It is best to do so according to the growth of the plant to avoid excessive growth. During maintenance, the temperature should be kept between 20-35 degrees.

3. If the lucky bamboo grows too tall, it needs to be beheaded and the overgrown branches should be properly pruned. This will promote the growth and development of side branches, which is extremely beneficial to its growth.
