Bamboo Food 3/17/2018

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Today the bamboo - ALL of the bamboo - got a scoop or two of Osmocote fertilizer to get it going.  We already have two canes....  the 1st 2018 cane was at the south gate, on one of the propagated original recipe bamboo plants.  It popped out in early January, which was amazing.  The 2nd 2018 cane Mark noticed today behind Sam and Dave, two of the three large Seabreeze bamboo 10 gallons that we bought at Beautiful Bamboo last year.  It's a fat Seabreeze cane, and it tells me we're going to have a great bamboo year.

The weather has been SO perfect and dry, it's been bug free.  Which is AMAZING for Florida!  Mark has been bouncing in and out of the A-J and 1-10 bamboo clumps installing an amazing new watering system.  Today is the 1st day that all of the bamboo is being watered simultaneously with one output from the pond pump watering system.

Yesterday was the day Mark revamped the watering distribution system.  Photos to come here....
