Soil:

Lucky Bamboo prefers good potting soil and you should not use mire or sand type soil. You should ensure a proper draining system to protect your plant from being waterlogged. The plant also grows well in a vase that is full of water.

Water:

You should water your bamboo plants with bottled water or distilled water. You should not use tap water for your bamboo plants as tap water contains chlorine and other chemical elements which are sensitive for bamboo plants. If you want to use tap water for your plant then put the tap water in a container for 24 hours because at this time chlorine and other chemical elements are evaporated at bottom of the container. If you grow your bamboo plant in a water base then change the water once each week.
