Symbolizing good fortune and prosperity, lucky bamboo is a plant that stays green year-round, and viewing it can bring a sense of pleasure and relaxation. There are various sizes of lucky bamboo on the market, from large potted plants to small and exquisite pots, to meet the needs of different spaces and preferences. Let’s learn how to grow lucky bamboo in soil to make it grow more vigorously? 1. Pot soil selection When planting lucky bamboo, you need to choose suitable potting soil. Plastic pots and purple clay pots are the first choice for indoor planting, while ceramic pots are recommended for outdoor planting. The ideal soil should be sandy to ensure good aeration and drainage. At the same time, in order to increase the nutrients in the soil, you can mix leaf mold, garden soil and dried crushed eggshells. It is recommended to replace the potting soil every 1 to 2 years and lay a layer of plastic foam at the bottom of the pot to improve ventilation and drainage. 2. Temperature and light Temperature and light are equally important to the growth of lucky bamboo. When caring for the plants indoors, the temperature should be kept no lower than 5 degrees Celsius to prevent them from being damaged by freezing. Lucky bamboo prefers diffuse light and should be avoided from direct sunlight in summer. In other seasons, it can be placed near the window to enjoy plenty of light. Avoid being in a dark environment for a long time to avoid affecting the color and appearance of the plant. 3. Pruning During the growth process of lucky bamboo, proper pruning and reproduction are necessary. Over time, the plant may become too large and out of proportion to the pot, affecting its ornamental effect. The best time for pruning is May or June every year, cutting the branches 10 to 15 cm away from the soil in the pot. This can not only maintain the coordination of the plant, but also promote the growth of new branches. The pruned branches can be used for cutting propagation. In general, lucky bamboo is a green plant that is easy to maintain. It not only symbolizes auspiciousness, but also brings visual relief. Placing a basin on your desk can provide relaxation for your eyes during work breaks.
