If you can't keep lucky bamboo healthy, let me teach you the soil cultivation method for lucky bamboo: it roots fast and grows especially vigorously later on

A gardening friend asked how to grow lucky bamboo in soil?

Actually, lucky bamboo is very easy to grow. With soil cultivation, you could say it grows however you grow it; when planted in soil it basically never develops problems.

Especially the lucky bamboo cuttings we just bought: if they have no roots, planting them directly in soil makes it very easy for them to survive, and the rooting speed is also very fast. As long as we make sure there are no bacteria in the soil, and the soil is loose and breathable, just insert them directly into the potting soil. After inserting them, remember one thing: you must give them a bit of scattered light, and when the soil surface of the pot dries, water it thoroughly in time. During this period, definitely do not fertilize. In about half a month, its roots will be able to grow well. And the top buds begin to grow. During this rooting stage, put it in a well-ventilated place as much as possible. Spray it with water twice a day to maintain air humidity, so its leaves do not wilt or turn yellow.

Once its roots have grown well and it starts growing, we need to fertilize it regularly. For fertilization, choose a multi-element mixed fertilizer or a multi-element mixed fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen and potassium; both are fine. As long as it is growing, use it two to three times a month. The concentration must not be too high, because lucky bamboo likes acidic soil, so every month give it one application of ferrous sulfate diluted with water. The dilution ratio is 1:1000. After dissolving it in water, immediately pour it into the potting soil; it cannot be left standing. If the water turns red before you water with it, it is not easily absorbed. Only freshly dissolved ferrous sulfate can be absorbed by the plant's roots.

When caring for soil-cultivated lucky bamboo, you must give it light. You can put it in a place where it can get light in the morning. Without light, it easily becomes leggy; with light, the leaves are darker in color and thicker. For watering, also when the soil surface of the pot dries, just water it thoroughly directly.

Growing lucky bamboo in soil is just this simple. Give it a certain amount of scattered light, sufficient fertilizer supplementation, loose and breathable soil, and regular watering. Keeping it well is just these few points. Do these few points, and the lucky bamboo you grow will definitely grow very well! Do these few points well, and it will root fast, not have yellow leaves, and grow especially vigorously.
