This kind of plant prefers fatter land, but not all fertile fertilizers are suitable for it, so generally speaking, this is a kind of plant that likes fertilizer and is particularly picky about fertilizer. For this kind of plant, which likes fertilizer, it is usually chosen to apply fertilizer regularly, but the so-called regular period does not mean such a long time in a month, but refers to how many times of fertilizer should be applied regularly in a month. For this kind of plant, it is usually necessary to maintain a semimonthly frequency during its growing period, at least. But what should be paid special attention to in autumn and winter is that there is no need to fertilize this plant at all. Remember, it is not necessary at all, that is, to stop fertilizing.

Second, apply according to the growth stage:

1. Before planting. Many people will think where plants need to be fertilized before planting, but in fact, this is a very wrong understanding. The soil should be prepared before planting, but for some fertilizer-loving plants, such as this one, they cannot be planted directly with ordinary soil, which is not conducive to their growth. Therefore, the soil used for planting must be fertilized with basic fertilizer before planting. The so-called basic fertilizer should choose organic, you can choose incinerated ash, living pond mud and so on.

4. Later stage of growth. Fertilizer with potassium as the main element should be applied at this stage, because the plant growth has been basically completed at this stage, and what needs to be improved is its quality, so it is appropriate to apply some fertilizer to improve its resistance to cold and disease at this stage.

Propagation mode of Phyllostachys pubescens

Phyllostachys pubescens can be propagated by ramet, seed and cuttage. However, because it is difficult for bamboo to get seeds and it is difficult to root by cuttings, ramet is the main method of propagation. Ramet can be carried out in early spring (February-March) combined with basin change. When ramets, the overgrown clumps of plants are poured out of the basin, cut with a knife from the rhizome, and put on the basin. Be careful not to hurt the roots. When slicing, at least let each shoot bud with an old bamboo, and try to retain the fibrous root, in order to ensure survival. The new plants should be planted in a medium-sized basin, cultivate fertile soil, pay attention to irrigation, keep moist, and keep them in a semi-shady place, and the bamboo shoots will grow rapidly.
