Hi! my name is Ernest, I'm from Belgium, I've some question about one of my seedling,

this is the only to do that on more of 50 plants from the same batch of seeds.

he start to made a lot of shoots at unusuals place, on the first culm,

is someone know what happens to this moso?











Thanks!

Ernest

That's fascinating! I've seen ornamental grasses do this before. I wonder if you should add more soil? I don't have much experience with seedlings.

Are you certain it's moso?

That has happened with my moso seedlings quite a few time and the reason is since the shoot generation node at the bottom was probably damaged, it will try to adapt, and create shooting clumps higher up on the plant. All you need to do is put all those under moist soil so each of them can make roots, and I have been able to get a handful of plants off of 1 seed this way.

You will find that this only happens with the initial culm.
