Successful Germination... what next?

Elbourne
12 years ago

A few months ago I successfully germinated a few Moso Giant Bamboo seeds I purchased online. I got them going in little plastic cups of a peat moss perlite mixture under a make-shift humidity dome. I was very happy to see something, but the growth seems to have stalled out. They have been this size for several weeks. I did transplant one in a slightly larger pot, but I have not noticed any growth.

I have never grown bamboo before and have several questions:

1. At what point should I transplant them into bigger pots?

2. How big of pots should I use?

3. What type of soil will the bamboo grow best in?

4. Should I fertilize them with anything?

5. What growth rate should I expect?

Thanks for any help.
