Any big changes lately? Is this a newer plant?

#### Alex svarade den 2025-04-16

I’ve had it for a couple months and no new changes

What are you watering with? Tap? Distilled? How often are you fertilizing?

#### Alex svarade den 2025-04-16

Tap, and I’m not sure exactly I just follow the thing

### Jenna kommenterade den 2025-04-16

Do you follow the planta schedule? I would be weary as it seems to tell people to fertilize very often. I’d do no more than monthly. I would also recommend watering with treated water or distilled

Lucky bamboo can be sensitive to chemicals in tap water. They can also react to shifts in temperature and over fertilization.

All it seems to need is bright indirect sunlight and water. I change the water when i remember but I try to add water on a regular.

I first noticed mine yellowing when it wasn’t getting enough light. I’ve since moved and am seeing a lot of new growth because it’s no longer in my windowless bathroom. I also removed the rocks I had in the vessel that held them upright.

My problem is the browning tips. If anyone knows if i should spritz for humidity, please let me know!

I spray mine it seems to like it. I only do when I think about it maybe once a week or every other lol
