How to keep lucky bamboo for a long time
Light: Lucky bamboo does not have high requirements for light. If there is no sunlight for a long time and it grows in a dark place with no light, it will cause the lucky bamboo to turn yellow, wilt, and lose leaves. You can grow the lucky bamboo in a place with bright astigmatism, and keep the soft light to promote the normal growth of the lucky bamboo.

Temperature: Lucky bamboo likes warmth, and the suitable growth temperature is around 16-26℃. Only by maintaining a suitable temperature can the growth be promoted. In order to promote the safe and smooth wintering of the lucky bamboo, it needs to be moved to a warm room for maintenance, and the temperature should not be lower than 5°C.

Change the water: The water should be changed regularly, usually 1-2 times a week, to keep the water quality clean and meet the needs of growth. In the hot summer, when the temperature is high and bacteria are easy to breed, the frequency of water changes can be increased.
Water quality: When the lucky bamboo is grown in hydroponics, mineral water, well water, or rainwater can be used. If you want to use tap water, it’s better to let it stand for a few days.
Nutrients: When changing the water for Lucky Bamboo, you can drop an appropriate amount of nutrient solution to ensure a good nutrient supply.
