You want a fully grown culm, but one that is still putting out new branches. For best results, make the cuttings about one foot long, and make sure you have a nodal joint one every cutting. There will probably be lateral branches coming out of these joints already. Ideally, you should cut just a few inches below each node, so that about 75 percent of the cutting is above the node. The new growth, both roots and culms, will emerge from the joints. One trick to help promote this growth is to score the bamboo at the joints. Using a sharp blade, make a shallow cut on the underside of each young branches, at the joint, right where they come off of the main culm. Typically you’ll have 2 or 3 branches at each node. You can cut these branches back to within a couple nodes from the joint. Keep the cuttings wet and place them straight into soil. For propagation purposes, try mixing a lot of perlite with the soil to make it more fluffy. This allows the soil moist without it being saturated, and moisture is key. Bury the cutting upright, submerging about 1/2 to 2/3 of each cutting, being sure to cover at least one nodal joint under soil. Alternatively, you can also lay it down horizontally and bury the entire cutting. At this point, you can also fill the hollow, upper portion of the bamboo culms with water. This helps to keep the cutting moist. Keep the cuttings in a relatively warm spot, out of the direct sunlight. A greenhouse is perfect. Keep the soil moist, and within a few months you should see new growth coming out of the branching joints on most of your cuttings. Don’t expect 100 percent success. Branch cuttings Using the same methodology as with culm cutting, you can also propagate certain types of bamboo from branch cuttings. Use young branches, and include a nodal joint on each cutting. You can place the cutting in water until you see fresh growth, or place them directly into soil. It’s very helpful to use a rooting hormone to increase your success rate. You can make your own rooting hormone with saliva, diluted apple cider vinegar, diluted honey, fresh aloe vera gel, or a solution of crushed aspirin. Lucky bamboo cuttings Usually when people talk about taking bamboo cuttings and growing them directly in water, what they are actually talking about is Lucky Bamboo. But this is something completely different. Lucky bamboo is actually a type of Dracaena, which is not a bamboo at all. It’s not even a grass. But it is extremely easy to propagate from cuttings.
