Re: brown spots forming on Red Temple Bamboo
Don't know the answer to your question but have seen this and wonder if it is initiated by impact - something impacting the culm enough to cause the waxes to migrate some and then this is a result. Culms smacking together in wind seems to show a more minor version of this, could this be from impacts during transport/digging/etc?
