I’ve had this lucky bamboo for about 2 years and up until now it was thriving and has gotten so big. Recently it’s started yellowing and I’m not sure why. The app said it needed more sun but when I tried that it yellowed more. Any advice?

    Maybe it’s root bound.

    Too much sun can burn the leaves! Bamboo likes indirect light. It could be root rot, overwatering or underwatering. Or just some yellow leaves. Either way, remove the dead leaves so it can spend its energy on new healthy leaves, instead of trying to revive bad ones.

    Hi. I’m new. But I had the same problem. This is how I fixed mine. I stopped using tap water Instead you need to use drinking water. Cut off the dry leaves. This is what I did and it really worked. Hope it helps you.
