Flowers & Gardening Jan 1, 1970 0 views

After lucky bamboo has rooted, it needs to move into normal care. Place it in a spot with bright, indirect light and give it a growing environment of 10-25°C, and do not take it out to clean it frequently. At the same time, extend the frequency of water changes and switch to partial water changes. Once its root system has grown mature, you can add some slow-release fertilizer to let it grow more luxuriantly.

1. Light

When the lucky bamboo stems you bought have been grown in water for a period of time and have rooted, you can move them into normal care. They need to be placed in a spot with bright, indirect light and must not be exposed to direct sunlight.

2. Temperature

Ensure the growing environment and temperature can meet the growth needs of lucky bamboo; between 10-25°C, it will grow relatively quickly.

3. Cleaning

After lucky bamboo begins to root, do not frequently take it out of its water container to clean it and so on, so as to avoid damaging the root system.

4. Water changes

After lucky bamboo has rooted, you can stretch out the frequency of water changes, and you can go from changing all the water to changing only part of it; this way the environment in which the root system grows will be more stable, and the root system will grow better.

5. Nutrients

After lucky bamboo has grown new roots, it has the ability to obtain nutrients from the water. Once the root system has grown relatively mature, you can add some slow-release fertilizer to the water so that it absorbs more nutrients and grows more luxuriantly.
