Bamboo: The Miracle Plant

[@ceasargines2884]

It takes only two years to grow and harvested unlike trees it takes longer. Another advantage is it doesn't need replanting since shoots grows unlimited. Quite fascinating and truly a solution for our reforestation.

not to mention that when acidified with glacial acetic acid(essentially concentrated vinegar), you can make a themoplastic from the cellulose fibers(cellulose acetate) from the bamboo that can also be softened and dissolved in acetone. this is the stuff that was supposed to replace silk, cotton, all fabrics in the early 1900s, but was stopped by silk investors.

[@larrydillard8163]

Just for the record bamboo has been growing in the southeastern United States for millions of years. When the Europeans arrived they had no use for it so they cut it down - most of it. See Zweybrucken Road, Yorktown, Virginia. The bamboo hammock visible from the road used to be much larger. They trimmed it back I think because it was a bit intimidating and they put a footpath through the middle of it. The footpath makes a nice shortcut to the battlefield visitor's center.

Bamboo is a C4 plant, so requires direct sunlight to grow. That limits its distribution. The fibre is usable in just the same way as any fibre, but its processing is much the same as paper, using sodium hydroxide and carbon disulphide.

There are some varieties growing in Western Washington State. My mom had it taking over her 1/2 acre on the high desert in S. CA, in which she created “fairy forest settings”. She liked the thin kind, that grows about 10’ tall. When she got moved up north w/us, she brought a clump of her bamboo with her, & simply stuck it into a 12” pot half-filled w/dirt. That was mostly set in the shade, too, but had moisture. In 6 years, it had tightly filled that 12” pot. Now, it fills a 30” pot by our fence, only limited by the tough pot it is in. I’ve cut some from other wild clumps in another yard & started them growing in 2 other 30” pots. Planning on making more plastic 6” or 8” pipe planters or narrow trash can planters, to put a row of bamboo along our long fencelines for privacy, & trellising other plants, & for use as food, etc. What was surprising, was how many supposedly viable cuttings failed to thrive. I think that was due to getting too little water from a faulty drip system, before they’d grown enough roots to survive. What might be needed, with all the growth in bamboo products, is a business that selectively thins & harvests residential bamboos, to profit the homeowner’s bamboo, too! Leave enough to still grow more, just thin it out. Kinda like lumber businesses have been doing.

It does great.

Omnipotent Dwarf what zone and type? Just planted some Phyllostachys atrovaginata in 6A.

[@omnipotentdwarf571]

The Skeptical Synergist Dude My bamboo is Phyllostachys bambusoides, known as Japanese timber bamboo. Some maps show me in zone 7, others in zone 8. It's in the desert. I planted mine at the edge of a small marsh I made next to a bald Cyprus tree I planted. I expected the bamboo would grow toward the water, but has grown away from it instead. It was planted July 2009, and took several years to start spreading. A bad winter killed it above ground in 2012, and that slowed it down for a year. It seems to be getting a slow start this year. By this time last year there were already quite a few shoots. www.willisorchards.com/product/japanese-timber-bamboo-plant

The rest are ravaged by lack of management, rampant poaching, habitat loss, and no enforcement due to lack of funding provided by sportsmen.

Bamboo fabric used with banana plant cellulose sponge with an aluminum scandium frame. Both the fabric and the sponge treated with water activated ceramic. Prefabricated homes were people can order on line then have the prefabricated home delivered to site were the pieces can be lever latch locked together. The foundation being bamboo fabric with a thick core of banana plant cellulose sponge that has holes for plumming. Foundation shipped in it's pressed vacumed sealed package. Two gallon's of hot water is slowly poured into the top of a container connected to the pressed foundation. Water is absorbed by the sponge and bursts the packaging then rises and exspand's that then dries rock hard in 24 hour's. Then wall panels can be attached to foundation and to each other all the way up to the roof all being lever latch locked into place. Two people set up requiring no tool's. Then hose the whole structure down with water to activate the ceramic and let it dry snd cure rock hard in 48 hour's drying and curing times will vary depending on the environment. What do you think about this use of bamboo and plant cellulose to build home's? Could even order bamboo curtains bamboo rugs bamboo doors bamboo storm shutters bamboo floors all on line and all shipped to the individual who ordered their new home. I have other idea's if you are interested lets have a chat. 😊

[@jish55]

Honestly, we should move away from our reliance on trees and switch to bamboo which can be just as sturdy, but far easier to grow and replenish. With Bamboo, we don't have to worry about deforestation as we can let the trees regrow and use bamboo forests for everything, from paper, to furniture, building materials, etc. We can use it for cups, replace plastic with it, and never have to worry about it running out with how easy it is to regrow, how quickly it regrows (leave it alone for a month and it'll produce the same amount of material it would take 10 years to get from trees), and it'll help out the environment.

I love how plentiful this plant is and yet they charge so much for bamboo toilet paper lmao

[@greenleafyman1028]

The higher cost of organic farming. Natural, plant-based products generally contain organically grown ingredients and components. From the bamboo in toilet paper and toothbrushes, the cotton in tote bags and towels, and all of the herbs and plant extracts in beauty products, growing organically requires more labor to manage weeds and pests without harsh chemicals. Ethical labor practices. Most brands that produce earth-friendly products are also concerned with fair employment practices and provide their workers with fair wages and safe working conditions, which come with a higher price tag. Higher processing costs. Producing green products is typically more expensive than producing their conventional counterparts. Green producers are often smaller operations that can’t afford large-scale manufacturing facilities, so there’s more time and worker pay involved in the production process. Secondly, relatively low demand means green companies aren’t producing at scale, so the cost per unit is higher. The high cost of environmental certifications. Getting a product certified by a third party like USDA Organic, the EPA’s Safer Choice, Leaping Bunny, or the Forest Stewardship Council is a very expensive and time-consuming process. Consumers pay more for the peace of mind of knowing the products they’re buying are certified by trusted organizations.

No mention of the The Las Piñas Bamboo Organ in St. Joseph Parish Church in Las Piñas, Philippines, which is a 19th-century church organ. It is known for its unique organ pipes; of its 1031 pipes, 902 are made of bamboo. It was completed after 6 years of work in 1824. My question is, with the cost of new instruments, why have bamboo pipes, and the thin leather sealing for wind chests and resevoirs not made nowadays of bamboo?! If the bamboo pulp can be made into wonderful cloth, why not look into seeing if it could be made into a more durable sealing than leather?! Few small churches can afford even a second hand pipe organ. Maybe this could be a cost effective solution!
