  • Thanks for the reply! I did end up pruning away some dead/weak/not-straight stalks and the plants look a lot better now as well. I removed some stalks that were very short but also very bushy in order to free up some of the space at the bottom of the plant. I didn’t want to overdo it so I only removed maybe 20% of the stalks. I’m glad the plant now looks less like a bush and more like something that wants to grow upwards

    I just planted the bamboo last summer so I hope it’s not rootbound yet, I’ll definitely check that out next winter tho, thanks for the heads up!













  • Not a counter argument, not supposed to be one.

    For me it’s less about bringing change and more about not giving money to people/corpos I dislike. It’s not perfect, I for sure don’t have a 100% success rate, but I feel better spending a bit more at a company that is probably fine instead of at Amazon and co.

    I don’t expect any one company to change because of this, let alone the system. It’s just out of my own volition. I can’t avoid trading with companies and people in general, but I can choose who I trade with.

    EDIT: Perhaps it’s because I’m under the impression that shitty corpos will do shitty things with the money I give them, so by not spending my money with them I know that I won’t be funding whatever it is they’re doing personally. Does it make a difference if I alone do it? Definitely not. Do I still feel better knowing I didn’t just directly fund something awful? Kinda
