Some of the people posting in the Bamboo forum don't know what they are
talking about so be careful and take anything you read there with a
grain of salt. My Spybot Search and Destroy was very busy blocking bad
stuff on my visit there.



Then there is at least one who is arrogant enough to think this
newsgroup was made for his use only and is very unappreciative when
someone trys to help.

These 2 are excellent:

If you think the bamboo forum on gardenweb has 100% accurate information
be my guest and rely on it.

Travis in Shoreline Washington

Once I tune out your whining Travis. and follow some of the links the
other bamboo furum members post I learn quite a bit.
But with and internet source -cum grano salis (with a grain of salt)
I grow 20 varieties and have some taller than my house, kill one or two
every year, but I am just a beginner.
