How to sow and care for Giant Bicolor Striped Bamboo

It would help if you soaked your bamboo seeds in water for a full day. Please place them in a shallow container of water. The next step is to plant your seeds in the ground since this will start the germination process and increase your success rate. A food thermometer will help you to determine whether the temperature gets too hot.

You can also plant one seed in the centre of each peat pellet if you do not have a container handy. If you don't have a container, you can put the seeds in a plastic bag and add water. With a wooden skewer, poke a small hole in the top of each shot. Place a seed in the centre of each shell. By pressing down with your finger, you should be able to cover the pellet with peat fully.

The greenhouse should receive more than ten hours of indirect sunlight each day. For seeds to develop into seedlings, they will need sun exposure. Do not place your greenhouse in direct sunlight, or you will burn the seeds.

A conservatory lid would help keep your conservatory warm. After the seedlings are one month old, transplant them into larger planting containers. Plant your plant in the hole you created in the potting soil designed for open-soil gardens. It would be appreciated if you watered your bamboo plants every second or third week.
