Default Bamboo question

In article , Paul Kelly

Best to follow the Japanese practice and cut out all but a few canes to
a)promote fatter canes b)create an attractive grouping rather than mass of
intermingled canes.

So is there no chance I'll get one inch thick canes on my nigra without
this selective thinning? I only planted mine last year and was hoping to
get some good growth this year. There are already one or two new shoots
growing but I just couldn't bring myself to hack any of them off!
