So whats you favorite bamboo? Whats the next bamboo on your have to have list?

Don`t know about the rest of you but I seem to have a bit of a mite problem. Sprayed all my bamboo today with a systemic miticide called Cygon 2E. I wonder what my chances of 100% erradication are.

Yes I believe they are TC. Actually its not that bad 30 flat minimum at $4.50 per flat.

I think Boo shoot gardens in WA sells liners. Their minimum order is quite large though. I buy most of my bamboo from them for resale.

Anyone have any idea how cold it has to be and for how long to kill bamboo mites. It will be down to -13 C (8.6F) with the windchill here on Vancouver Island. Would be so gread to have them all die.

I was thinking of having a quarantine greenhouse where I will keep mite infested bamboo. Just to keep the predators going. Not totally sure how it will work but I think I will try it in the spring.

Anyone ever try them. Any success? I have used systemics with some success. Any info appreciated.

I used to say phy-low-sta-sheeze instead of phy-low-stack-is And I just recently learned that it is far-jeez...

Sounds like a great idea. Im up here in Nanaimo. I know a couple others that would be interested as well. Let me know if you need any help or ideas.

Joe. I would be interested in some rhizomes. Are you located in B.C.

We have had unseasonably high temps for the last week. 82 - 95 degree highs. I have been watering every other day. Leaves have not curled on me. So you think it the heat doing this.?

This spring my Vivax aureocaulis produced its first shoots. 3 of them all about an inch in diameter. The culms pushed up about 6 feet then all stopped growing. The tops of the shoots have become limp and mushy. The branches that have come out are 6 inch stubs. This is the first of such a thing I hav...
