Bamboo Nursery

Bamboo is a fast growing woody grass which grows in the highland ranges and on mountains. It plays an important role in the protection of water and soil resources. Bamboo has been the prime material in most of the traditional crafts and handicrafts. It plays a very important role in the construction industry as well. Bamboo Nursery is specialized in growing bamboo to a desired height. These bamboo are grown in germination beds. Sowing of seeds in germination bed should be done during September/ October. Only drill sowing to be done. The seedlings should be pricked out and transplanted in polythene bags, when they are about 7 cm in height, in germination beds. The best results are achieved if pricking out is completed before November end. Pricked out seedling should be watered and weeded regularly. About 2% urea solution may be spread on seedlings.
