This can ensure the more robust growth of light bamboo leaves and improve the yield and quality. After selecting a good site, do the land preparation work, turn it about 25 centimeters deep, level off to make a bed. Sufficient base fertilizer was applied, and the base fertilizer was mainly rotten farm manure to improve soil fertility and meet the nutritional needs of light bamboo leaves.
