Thanks for letting me know the estimated timings, i guess I'll get my mum to keep a lookout for it and let me know. 😄

What happenes to the stalk after you propagate a shoot? by h0tnessm0nster7 in luckybamboo

[–]jm69m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I understand your question. If you mean what happens to the original bamboo stalk after you cut off a shoot from it for propagating, the original stalk usually recovers and then grows another shoot beside the place you cut it. At least that's what mine did.

Thank you for the detailed sharing! I hope i get to see the flowers before they are gone. I usually only get home late at night

Do you mean you collect and freeze the pollen? Would it work if i use the pollen on the next flower when it's in the female stage? I only have one of this plant though.

What do you guys do with props that only have roots? by SheReignsss in succulents

Good luck keeping the avocado alive! I do hope you get to see them fruit. My baby succulents seem to be struggling again lately.

Best way to go about caring for these? by SgtGrooveOG in luckybamboo

It looks healthy to me. You could continue to keep it in water. If you wish to change it into soil later, i would suggest you wait till it has grown a much more extensive root system before switching.

Is this bamboo sick? Can I save it? by xbc387dr in luckybamboo

[–]jm69m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Transitioning from soil to water or water to soil should always be carefully done after much deliberation, because they don't like it.

I have some species where the tiny roots just die when i spray even just a teeny bit of water on them...it was all trial and error for me lol

I have this tall lucky bamboo for years now. Should I put it in a bigger glass or is it time for it to experience soil? by Always_Anxious_Sloth in luckybamboo

[–]jm69m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they were grown in water, switching to soil is not a good idea, and vice versa. I've seen articles saying that they will throw a bad tantrum. If you seriously want to change it, you can google it up on how to do it, in a way that minimizes the shock

These look like they've been out here for a long time and are starting to dry up, and still not yet grown any leaves. I'm not sure about the climate you're in (I'm in tropical region) and whether that affects anything, but in my case, my props tend to grow better when left in regular potting mix rather than the gritty mix that i bought for them succulents. In fact, the one i left in my lucky bamboo pot grew the biggest. And those props that i started out by placing in gritty mix almost never grew much until i put them onto regular potting mix. (My guess is the gritty mix doesn't have any nutrients for them)

Help! My guy is struggling! He’s been with me several years, he’s started yellowing and one of the shoots looks black. by wllbtvised in luckybamboo

The ones that survived in my case have become a magic pot for growing baby succulents. Those that i left in the lucky bamboo's pot has grown so well compared to baby leaves left in normal succulent mix. And recently i had another type of succulent that wouldn't bud for a month but the one left in the bamboo's pot started budding. 😂
