When do bamboo shoots sprout?

The germination time of different bamboos is slightly different, which is spring and autumn. Bamboo is likely to sprout in the first month. Scattered bamboos germinate in March-May, clustered bamboos germinate in March-May, shoot in June-August, and miscellaneous bamboos germinate in May-July.

The best time to dig bamboo shoots is to go to Tomb-Sweeping Day in the middle and late March every year. However, due to the different regional temperatures, the growth of bamboo shoots may be early or late every year. Therefore, when spring comes, we must often go to the bamboo forest to observe and dig out the bamboo shoots as soon as possible, otherwise the sprouted bamboo shoots will soon grow tall and cannot be eaten.

The underground stems of Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens and other scattered bamboo species are deeply buried in the soil, and bamboo whips and bamboo shoots are protected by the soil layer, so they are not easy to suffer from freezing injury in winter, and the bamboo shoots are mainly produced in spring. Dendrocalamus latiflorus, Phyllostachys pubescens and other clustered bamboo species have shallow underground stems, and their shoots are often exposed to the soil surface, so they are vulnerable to freezing injury in winter.

Extended data:

Excellent bamboo species for bamboo shoots in China mainly include Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens, Dendrocalamus latiflorus, Dendrocalamus latiflorus and Dendrocalamus latiflorus in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Fujian and Taiwan Province provinces. Underground stems of Phyllostachys pubescens, Phyllostachys pubescens and other scattered bamboo species are deeply buried in the soil, and bamboo whips and bamboo shoots are protected by soil layer, which is not easy to freeze in winter;

The underground stems of Dendrocalamus latiflorus, Phyllostachys pubescens and other clustered bamboo species are shallow in the soil, and the shoots are often exposed on the soil surface, which is vulnerable to freezing injury in winter, and the shoot emergence period is mainly in summer and autumn. Bamboo is native to the tropics and subtropics, and it likes temperature and is afraid of cold, mainly distributed in areas with annual rainfall of1000 ~ 2000 mm.

The optimum temperature for the growth of Phyllostachys pubescens is 65438 06 ~ 65438 07℃ per year, which is lower than 30℃ in summer and around 4℃ in winter. The annual average temperature of Dendrocalamus latiflorus and Phyllostachys pubescens is 65438 08 ~ 20℃, and the average temperature in June is above 65438 0℃.
