Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and barely cover the seeds with soil, as they need light to germinate. Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged, and maintain a warm temperature around 70-80°F (21-27°C). Germination can be slow and uneven, so be patient. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil for planting in the garden. Water regularly during the first year to help establish a deep root system. Apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly in spring with a balanced fertilizer. Prune only to remove dead or damaged culms; avoid heavy pruning until the plant is well established.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 California Giant Bamboo seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49820194013281,"sku":"seed - california giant bamboo-699","price":15.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/0796\/7073\/files\/download_9c94cb31-b347-46f0-ac11-a137c3058b3b.jpg?v=1793158043","url":"https:\/\/8storeseedsejahtera.store\/products\/50-california-giant-bamboo-seeds-clumping-privacy-screen-shade-plant","provider":"8 Store Seeds Sejahtera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
