That's a runner you're dealing with there. Clumping bamboos have completely round stem, runners have a flat on alternating sides of the internodes. Either type will eventually cause problems, but clumpers much more slowly.

Hey Mark, yes that can work for some people the only issue with that is the bamboo may become reliant on you watering/feeding them over time as the pots will restrict their access to water and nutrients. 👍

Hey Simon thanks for the comment I have actually done an updated video on this topic of how to reduce the height of bamboo do take a look if your interested. In this video I say don't cut the top of the bamboo if you want a natural looking bamboo plant, as by cutting the top it causes growth from the point you cut so needs to be regularly topped in the future to keep its shape. Hope this helps 👍

Hello, yes commonly known as golden bamboo I have seen it grow to about 4.5 meter in the UK but I am sure it would grow taller in warmer climates. Equally I have seen it only grow to 2/2.5 meters high and not get any taller after being there for years so it really is situational. 👍

@gardenerstale Ай бұрын
Hey Scotty ah no way they can certainly be a pain I have found a lot on broad beans (hence the name black bean aphid or blackfly) this year with the hot weather the breed like mad. Best thing is a soapy mixture in a spray bottle and that will kill them if you spray it onto them directly as they breath through their backs so it suffocates them. Just remember to check and spray under leaves if needed as they are good at hiding or follow the ants that protect them, they mainly are on the tips of the plant. 👍

Can you safely top tall bamboo in the winter months, harvesting the foliage for animal feed, without killing the cane?
@gardenerstale Ай бұрын
Hey Honey hollow if this is your running variety and it is established you will have no problem topping in the winter months just try to do it on a mild day for the time of year to reduce die back and allow it to recover. If any canes do die it will soon fill back in the spring/summer due to it's vigorous growing habits. 👍

I have planted running bamboo on my 35 acres as a browsing source for my goats. From what I have read, it sounds like they should be able to keep it under control.
@gardenerstale Ай бұрын
Hey Honey hollow goats are really good grazers and recyclers for garden waste. They should certainly be able to slow it down, it will still spread with the underground runners so just worth keeping an eye on how much it travels. Fortunately having 35 acres means you have a big buffer zone, I would just mark an area out with sticks with the bamboo inside so if it grows past that area then you can always cut or dig it back to the original area 👍

Glad I searched and found this video. I have a strip of land at the back of our garden on the council / field side of a 6-foot concrete fence, which is about 40-feet long and 12-feet deep containing all sorts of bushes, small trees…and the dreaded bramble. I really don’t like the sharp, quick-growing stuff that seems to strangle all that it touches. I’m 53 now (sometimes feel older) and have some tools to fight it back most years but then it gets on top of me, as it has done towards the back end of last year and into this. Our council’s Parks Department have reluctantly put a work order in for it to be cut back but I’ve been waiting for 9 months so far as we’ve had lots and lots of wet weather plus they only have one ad-hoc team for such low-priority work. I did once pay a registered tree surgeon when the council refused to do it and I was desperate; it was someone we know and he did a very good job, which then gave me a good 3 years where I could then manage it myself. SO…having seen the bramble finally reach our fence last night, I’ve used this video - thank you - to motivate myself to ‘arm up’ with some manual cutting tools to start off with and make the 5-minute walk-round to do a reconnaissance and, hopefully, a little cutting back to see just how bad it’s got since I last had a proper go myself… 🙄 🤞 Thanks once again - good video.

Nice video👍 Any tips on preventing the discoloured tips on the leaves? I have two identical phyllostachys nigra and one seems to have developed brown tips and the other has consistent green leaves. They both have the same water nutrients. 🤔 (the Bambusa varieties seem more resistant to this leaf tip issue)
@gardenerstale Ай бұрын
Hey Chris thanks 👍 that does seem odd what sort of positions are they both in does one get more sun than the other? I would recommend giving a nitrogen feed, even if they get similar nutrients one may need a bit of a boost to recover. Sometimes if one is in a more windy spot the tips of the leaves can dry up and go brown. That's interesting Bambusa like a hotter climate so maybe something to do with heat and exposure to the sun I imagine the Phyllostachys Nigra maybe getting a bit too much or hot morning sun which may dry the tips as that's the furthest part away from the plant and most exposed to this. 👍

@@chrisc7262 sounds like that may be the problem. You could pot them on into a larger pot or build a wooden lined planter to help retain more moisture and provide more nutrients by giving them a larger amount of soil to live in. Yeah if the Bambusa are in the ground they have full access to nutrients and water not restricted by pot size so will be able to become a lot healthier plants. 👍

Rule #1 - Do not plant running bamboo. Clumping bamboo is also a pain in the ass, but with regular attention and a very deep root barrier it can be controlled / contained.
@gardenerstale Ай бұрын
Hey, yeah it can become out of control in most gardens so not usually advised. I have seen it before growing in larger gardens and arboretums where it becomes self contained (over a large area) because of the ground it is growing in can only support so much of the plant. Yes clumping bamboo is a better option for most people but does require upkeep. 👍

Hey, I have seen them grown as an espalier with a 5/6 ft stem or pruned 5/6 ft stem to be a small/medium sized shaped tree but never one that has naturally done it.

Hey, thanks for the comment I am unsure where you can buy bamboo seeds I would ask any local plant nurseries as the more people you talk to the closer you get to your answer. That sounds great you want to do bamboo farming. With the colour it would depend on the location, climate, soil type etc and aesthetically what you prefer in that situation plus with your farming are you farming for cane production if so what products will you make from it or for plants to sell then you need to think about what other people want to buy.

With the amount of waste material expected, could this be done from early autumn over 3 or 4 weeks? I've read that frost might damage new shoots if pruned at the wrong time, but if I'm cutting it back hard, by the time I've finished I wouldn't expect to have any new shoots growing.
