Can someone help me with my bamboo plant?
Can you answer meechelle's question about Bamboo?:
I read an answer to one of my questions about my bamboo leaves turning white. They said that bamboo does better in the shade and may not be getting enough water.

Is there any way to fix the plant from turning white? I water it often, and I know I'm not drowning it. I love my bamboo plant.
Its in a tiny pot too, would it still do well if i moved it into a bigger one?

bamboo is a grass, so it shouldn't stay in a small pot, better transplant it
I think Jesem47 is correct with the transplanting. We have a Bamboo plant in the back yard and it grows like wildfire. It does turn a pale tan color by the end of summer. We cut it WAY back last year and it came back thick and green. Mine only gets watered from the sprinkler near by. Any chance you can plant it outside?
Keep this in mind, bamboo is a grass and in places like Vegas, it grows like crazy. It's invasive. It may be cute in a planter but, don't plant it outside and forget it. I've seen grown men cry, trying to take it out, it's impossible to get rid of it once it takes hold.
if water is the problem then you should put it in a vase that is long and slim you should spray it with a water bottle often since it natrully grows in wetlands i leave my bamboo plant in the sun for hours and its dark green i also mix different cut flowers with it from my moms garden and also i give it spring bottled water thats been sittin a dark space for 24 hours also i replace the water every few days or week
