Sowing and propagation of Phyllostachys pubescens

The seeds of bamboo can be picked immediately in autumn. After sowing the seeds, cover them with plant ash and fine soil. In the second year, the seedlings grow slowly. We should do a good job in daily care, loosen the soil and weed, and apply some light fertilizer. It can be transplanted after three years of cultivation. The transplantation is more suitable after the rain in spring. It is necessary to dig up seedlings with soil, so that the survival rate of transplanted Nantian bamboo will be relatively high

Ramet propagation of Phyllostachys pubescens

When we use the ramet method to propagate Nantian bamboo, it is suitable for spring or autumn. Dig out the whole plant of Phyllostachys pubescens, shake off the soil at the root, select the narrow place at the joint of the root and cut it. It can be divided into two or three plants, and cut some larger leaves, so that the divided plants can be planted into the soil. Generally, we can blossom and bear fruit after cultivating them for one or two years

Cutting propagation of Phyllostachys pubescens

Nantian bamboo can also be propagated by cutting. Cutting activities are mainly carried out in spring and summer. First of all, we should select a Nantian bamboo that has been growing for a year, cut a section of branches about 15 cm long, and directly plant them into the soil. We'd better choose a relatively humid and fertile sandy soil. After planting, pay attention to the shade of cuttings, and cover them with plastic cloth for moisturizing. Do not loosen the soil and fertilize before rooting
