Does bamboo regrow when cut?

Bamboo has an extensive root system, and as long as it isn't over-harvested, it will send up renewal shoots. Bamboo is a giant grass, so harvesting is like mowing your yard. New growth comes up continuously.

A single bamboo shoot turns into a cane by growing at the tip. If that tip is cut off, that cane stops growing any taller. If you cut off and kill a single shoot, more will be sent up from the ground to replace it. 

Bamboo is a renewable resource

If you buy small bamboo stakes for your garden, they are harvested by being cut to the ground, and new shoots are allowed to grow and mature to replace them until the next harvest. 

Bamboo is usually relatively easy to reproduce. You can try cutting the canes and half burying them vertically in the ground and buckets just before the rainy season. 

You would have more success burying the canes horizontally about as deep as the thickness of the club.  Do it when the rainy season starts. 

Many of the nodes will put down roots and make new shoots come up. After it is growing for a season or two, you could dig up the cane and cut it to divide the nodes into different plants and place each where you wish.

You can use this method with a clumping timber bamboo to make green fences for privacy and livestock. 

• A buried cane about 4 meters long and ten nodes often grow a new plant on 3–8 nodes.
• As with any plant propagation, it is good to try various experiments to see what works for you with the least effort.
• Don't use the rooting hormone with bamboo.
• Dig the stalks that have roots on them, but that is often a lot more work as bamboo can be pretty tough.
