I grow my bamboo in Desert Soil and it loves it. All I do is add steer
manure once in awhile and water it once a week.

I am starting some bamboo seedlings about 2 in. tall in 6 in pots.
The soil
is just Miracle Gro potting soil. The pots get full sun, and I
don't let
the soil get dried out. The bamboo isn't growing very much, and one
(of two)
looks like it might not survive. Am I using the wrong kind of soil
? Maybe
they prefer a different ph or they like a more sandy soil?
