BAMBOO

Light:
☀️ Full sun to partial shade. Bamboo thrives best in bright, indirect sunlight but can tolerate some shade, especially in warmer climates.

Water:
💧 Bamboo loves water. Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water deeply, especially during dry spells, to ensure the roots stay hydrated.

Soil:
🌱 Well-draining, rich, loamy soil. Bamboo prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil but can adapt to a variety of soil types.

Temperature:
🌡️ Prefers mild to warm temperatures (65°F - 75°F / 18°C - 24°C). Bamboo can tolerate light frost, but it may die back in extreme cold, so it’s better suited to USDA zones 5-10 depending on the variety.

Humidity:
💦 Bamboo thrives in moderate to high humidity. It’s especially suited for moist, tropical environments, but it can tolerate average indoor humidity if watered properly.

Fertilizer:
🌼 Feed with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer). Bamboo is a heavy feeder, so consider using a slow-release fertilizer or one with higher nitrogen content to promote healthy growth.

Pruning:
✂️ Prune to remove dead or yellowing canes. You can also thin out older canes to encourage new growth. Be sure to remove any unwanted shoots to prevent bamboo from spreading too quickly if it's in a confined space.
