How to grow lucky bamboo to make it more vigorous

Appearance

What does a lucky bamboo look like when it is beautiful? It has green leaves with rich colors and tall and straight branches and stems. Such a pot of lucky bamboo basically meets the aesthetic requirements of everyone. However, if lucky bamboo is not properly maintained, it will lead to a series of phenomena such as leaf fading, dullness, and root rot.

Improper maintenance and proper maintenance are just one word difference, and lucky bamboo can be in two different states. There is no shortcut to growing lucky bamboo well. It requires a little care every day.

Specific operations

Temperature requirements

No matter which type of lucky bamboo you plant, the temperature requirements are certain. Lucky bamboo has strong vitality and the most suitable growth temperature is 20℃. It can grow safely as long as the temperature is not lower than 0℃ in winter. In the hot summer, when the temperature exceeds 35℃, the growth is slow. Remember to spray water in time to cool down.

Lighting conditions

Many flower lovers will have a question after buying lucky bamboo: Does lucky bamboo need sunlight? In fact, lucky bamboo is a shade-loving plant that needs sunlight, but semi-shade is its most ideal growing environment.

Friends who have lucky bamboo at home, please take note: place the lucky bamboo indoors and expose it to sunlight occasionally. There is no need to move it to a sunny place to bask in the sun. A cool environment can promote the growth of lucky bamboo.

Fertilization method

Lucky bamboo likes fertilizer, but cannot tolerate raw fertilizer. Decomposed organic fertilizer or nutrient solution should be used. But lucky bamboo is not a vegetable, it can grow well even without fertilizer. The interval between fertilization can be long or short, and it is sufficient to fertilize once every 2 to 3 months. During this period, you can increase fertilization appropriately according to the growth of lucky bamboo.

Water quality requirements

Lucky bamboo is mostly grown in vases, and its main source of nutrients is clean water, so water quality is very important. Tap water should be left for 24 hours before use to prevent the chlorine in the water from affecting the root growth of lucky bamboo.

In addition, you should change the water frequently, once a week in summer and clean the bottle wall, once every half a month in other seasons, and add water in time when the water content decreases.

Lucky Bamboo

The lucky bamboos we have seen are all in water, but they can also be grown in soil. Choose a flowerpot with a diameter of 12 to 24 cm, and the best material is ceramic or porcelain. The soil is generally made of garden soil + leaf mold, configured in a ratio of 5:5.

The biggest difference between soil cultivation and water cultivation lies in the different media. The requirements for light, temperature and water are basically the same.
