After autumn arrives, many flower lovers buy a bunch of lucky bamboo to take home and put in a vase. Under normal circumstances, after being cared for a period of time, the lucky bamboo will grow roots and can be kept at home for several years without any problem. But some flower lovers say that the lucky bamboo they bought and took home not only fails to grow roots, but also has yellow leaves within a few days? What should be done?

Don't worry. Today Qiu Ma is sharing a little trick to make lucky bamboo grow roots quickly, for reference, and flower lovers are also welcome to leave comments and share more convenient and quicker care methods.

First, take a look at the daily care and rooting methods for lucky bamboo.

1. Make a slanted cut at the bottom of the stem to increase the contact surface with water and speed up rooting.

2. Add water to the vase up to one third full, no more than that.

3. Place it in a warm, ventilated spot with bright indirect light to speed up rooting.

4. After rooting, apply water and fertilizer once a month to help the lucky bamboo grow better.

But the lucky bamboo grown by many flower lovers often turns completely yellow and is thrown away before it has even rooted. Here is a little method I have used myself.

A little trick for making lucky bamboo root quickly: go to a riverbank and get a few willow branches from the current year's growth. After crushing them flat, soak them in clean water for 3 days, and you will get willow branch water. Then dilute the willow branch water 10 times with clean water and use it directly to propagate the lucky bamboo. You will find that lucky bamboo propagated in willow branch water roots especially quickly, and generally after 2 weeks you can see roots beginning to emerge.

This is because the salicylic acid contained in willow branches is a growth-promoting factor and also has a certain sterilizing effect, which can prevent the water from turning foul and make the plant root faster.

Interested flower lovers can give it a try. If you do not want to use willow, you can also use one tablet of vitamin B12 instead, which can also speed up the rooting method for lucky bamboo. Flower lovers, what other good methods have you used? You are welcome to leave comments and share and discuss together.
