How to grow thunder bamboo with high yield
1. Construction of bamboo shoot garden Soil fertility is crucial to bamboo shoot yield. Thunder bamboo has few fine roots, so it is best to build the bamboo shoot garden in soil with a small slope, thick and loose texture, and it must be drained in time during the rainy season. 2. Fertilizer and water management: Teardrops need to be fertilized four times a year. Fertilizers are mainly organic fertilizers, such as human and animal manure and plant ash. It is best to build a reservoir near the bamboo shoot garden to ensure water supply. 3. Mother Bamboo Transplantation The mother bamboo of Thunder Bamboo can be transplanted in October-November. You need to choose a strong, disease-free and pest-free mother bamboo and leave 5-8 branches. When planting, pay attention to digging deeply and planting shallowly. The soil depth must be appropriate. 4. After planting is completed, cover it with bamboo leaves, grass leaves and other debris to achieve the purpose of heat preservation and moisturizing, which is conducive to the growth of bamboo shoots. 5. If you want to ensure a stable output, you need to leave some mother bamboos aside when harvesting bamboo shoots. Choose vigorously growing bamboo shoots, and pay attention to using mother bamboos to replace old and new ones.
