When do bamboo shoots grow?

The shooting period is mainly in summer and autumn.

Bamboo shoots are the first shoots of bamboo that grow from the soil. They are delicious and can be used for cooking. Bamboo is a qualitative plant, and the edible part is primary, tender and fat, short and strong buds or whips. 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.

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. 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.

After beginning of spring, they grew briskly, fresh, moist and bright. Spring bamboo shoots are the most tender and fresh, and their crispness is natural. The so-called "early adopters are like mushrooms after rain." At that time, even Emperor Taizong missed bamboo shoots and fell in love with "fresh mirrors". Every year when bamboo shoots are on the market, he also calls ministers to eat bamboo shoots.

Growth process of bamboo shoots

1. Bamboo shoots, also known as bamboo shoots, are young bamboo shoots. They are edible and crispy. The growth process of bamboo shoots is also very interesting. Bamboo shoots grow underground.

When the bamboo shoots first grow, they will only sprout a little. At this time, their bamboo shoots continued to grow in the soil, and the growth was amazing, and the bamboo shoots were very strong.

3. Bamboo shoots grow fast, and they can grow 1-2cm in the soil every day. When the growth is rising, the underground part of bamboo shoots begins to stop growing. When more bamboo roots are extracted, the roots will grow.

4. Bamboo shoots will change from underground growth to aboveground growth, and the growth rate will also change from slow to fast. At this time, bamboo shoots can grow 10-20cm every day, and bamboo shoots will continue to grow like trees, strengthening lateral roots at the peak of growth.
