Ok so I have another post on here but I figured I would just consolidate all my pictures on here into one thread. It is my first grow for bamboo and so far has been a lot of fun. I'll keep posting as the plant grows and as winter hits. My goal is to try to save as much of the plant as possible over the winter to try and achieve 15+ feet. Anyhow Enjoy, and please leave comments and criticisms/advice because im still very new at this.

P.nuda here is about double the size as when i first got it in may.

    You might want to keep an eye on that grasshopper. On some of my whipshoots, the hoppers have eaten most of the emerging leaves (while they're still rolled up). They like the tender stuff I guess.
