Lucky bamboo sounds appealing just from its name. Lucky bamboo symbolizes wealth and prosperity, so every household likes to grow it. But did you know that growing lucky bamboo well is no simple matter? Sometimes a bunch you buy withers and turns yellow within a few days, so growing lucky bamboo requires patience and careful care. Below, the editor will tell you how to grow lucky bamboo well.

How to grow lucky bamboo well:

1. When growing lucky bamboo in a vase with water, choose a robust plant with intact leaves, straight stems and an intact terminal bud. Cut the base into a 45-degree slant with a sharp blade and grow it in a straight glass container with a water depth of about 5 to 10 cm. Change the clean water every 3 to 4 days, and do not move its position or change its direction within 10 days. Roots will form in about 15 days. After rooting, stop changing the water; when the water level drops, simply top it up in time, because frequent water changes can easily cause yellowing and wilting of the leaves.

2. After rooting, give it a small amount of light and add a small amount of compound nutrient solution. After that, apply nutrient solution once every 3 weeks, but avoid organic fertilizer. If it is not fertilized for a long time, the plant will grow thin and weak, and the leaves will easily turn yellow. However, do not over-fertilize, to avoid "burning the roots" or causing leggy growth. In spring and autumn, apply a compound chemical fertilizer once a month. According to reference materials, to prevent leggy growth in water-grown lucky bamboo, do not apply chemical fertilizer; it is best to add a few drops of brandy and a small amount of nutrient solution into the vase about every 3 weeks, which can keep the leaves emerald green.

3. Do not place lucky bamboo next to a TV or in a place where an air conditioner or electric fan often blows, to avoid dry and withered leaf tips and leaf edges.

The above are the methods for growing lucky bamboo well. Besides these methods, what else should you pay attention to when growing lucky bamboo? Let's continue learning with the editor below.
