Planting River Cane

[@secretzombie3976]

Haha I just harvested 20+ stalks from less than 5 minutes away from a year round creek and I'm going to attempt to transplant some I dug up with that specific purpose in a wet weather creek, and now I will also try to propagate some cutting as you showed. Thanks. Everyone wish me luck and a year from now remind me and I'll let you know how it turned out! Cheers!

That is amazing! So lucky you have a place where it grows naturally. I have actually just moved onto a small 3 acre property where its right next to the Columbia River where it used to grow River cane. It was over harvested and once they made the River area into parks, it was also killed off. My goal is to bring it back, at least on my property where I am allowed to grow it.lol I know it hasn't been a year, or even close. But I am very curious to know how your River cane is doing so far? If you don't mind sharing:)

[@mrme2558]

[@thestevenbell]

[@Surefootsurvival]

Update short is up now👊

[@Greg-or6bl]

Found it thank you

[@traceblink9873]

That's a really nice piece of land you have

[@Surefootsurvival]

Thank you, I have access to 300 acres. I am truly blessed.

[@IowaPrepper]

what does it take to get some starts from you? I am in southeast Iowa right on the border of Missouri and Iowa. It used to grow wild here but was harvested or burnt off decades ago.

[@fingernecklace4817]

Hey, did you ever get any? I got some down here in Texas, I don't know the first thing about what it would take to transport such things, and I sure couldn't drive it up there myself, but I wouldn't mind figuring it out for the cause of spreading this good stuff around

[@AppalachianWoodcraft]

How did they do this last summer. I'm going to try and replant some on my land. I'm in southeastern ky. Great vid

[@Surefootsurvival]

Appalachian Woodcraft flood took them. Im in Floyd co Ky. Thank you for watching.

[@jimmymundane1084]

Thanks for the tips. How did that turn out?

[@Surefootsurvival]

They took for about a month and stopped growing. I’m thinking that the soil change stunted them.

[@jimmymundane1084]

@@Surefootsurvival I've tried to put some in on the Ohio River bank two years in a row. It does not seem to be taking.

[@charmainegentz9543]

Do you sale Root stock of river cane ?. If not ,do you know where I can find some to plant on my creek bed ?.for erosion..

[@Kevin_Borr]

Thanks for the video! What state do you live in? This looks kind of like the Ozarks.

[@Surefootsurvival]

eyeofhumanity .Eastern Kentucky. We are blessed to have a several different eco systems here.

[@77jennward]

Is there a certain time of year that is best? I live in coastal SC, right now it's kind of cold 50s day 39s at night. Is this too cold?

[@Surefootsurvival]

April, after a chance of frost would be best

[@aryafarzan1]

How fast does river cane grow?

[@tylercruz2628]

is there a limit to how big the cuttings can be?

[@anondeilvers91]

how are the cuttings doing now? if you don't mind me asking

[@Surefootsurvival]

anon deilvers the colder temperatures have made them go dormant

[@carterriemer4609]

Do you still have river cane in 2020

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

Does it matter what kinda soil they are put in

[@Surefootsurvival]

Osbaldo Hernandez The closer you can get to soil that you typically see one river/creek banks the better. So soil that has sand in it will work fine.

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

Surefoot Survival well ima just grow it in my front yard but I water it constantly but if I add sand to it will it work to

[@wegder]

Did they root?

[@Surefootsurvival]

No, I wish. Back to back floods took them

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

Is there seeds I can buy to grow river cane

[@Surefootsurvival]

Osbaldo Hernandez not that I know of

[@osbaldohernandez9174]

Surefoot Survival I live in Texas but I haven’t really seen any river cane but I have looked online and they sell seeds but idk

[@wenjaminbhigham]

for those curious about cane vs bamboo. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKm8gXqgiZyZgck

[@fracturedhearts3734]

I started a stand of mountain (Hillbilly) cane in my yard about ten year ago. Making my first arrows this winter.

[@geckoguy4141]

I know this is a year old but do you know where I can buy or find some mountain cane? I've been searching online for a while now and haven't found any for sale. I would love to grow some in my yard since it's an amazing native bamboo that has so many uses.
