The Living Force
We have this small bamboo plant which was doing fine until we left for about 10 days. We left it outside so that it would get some water if it rained. We were told that it rained almost everyday we were gone. When we came home, it was half dead.
Looking on the internet, I read that I should prune the dead leaves which I did (not sure if I did it correctly). I've also been giving it filtered water. At this point, I don't think it's doing any better. I know virtually nothing about plants and was wondering if I'm missing anything. Should I try fertilizer and what kind? I read that African Violet fertilizer may work, but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Is there a plant fertilizer that one can make at home? Any and all comments are welcome.
