(Moso, ‘Giant Bamboo’) quality, high productivity and
adaptable nature.

• Shoots : Excellent fresh edible sprouts

Belongs to the genus
• Canes/Trunks provide valuable Lumber
Phyllostachys suitable for
• Leaves for beverages
temperate climates
• Rhizomes for accessories
(up to -4°F)

Monopodial

Suitable for every type of

soil with drip irrigation Rapid Growth: 3 to 5 years
(Ph between 4.5 - 8) to reach full production

Does not require special tools or machinery Height 50 – 80 feet

while planting or Harvesting Diameter 4” – 8”
 Morphology and Propagation 2
Propagation of Rhizomes

This Bamboo species grows only at 3-4 inches below the soil surface and will continuously
generate new roots. Up to 9 shoots per trunk are produced in the spring when 2/3 of available
shoots are harvested. In the Fall 1/3 of the trunks are harvested allowing for a continues cycle
that yields over 7 tons of shoots and 1,200 culms. Life expectancy of a Bamboo plantation is 80 to
120 years, but there is documentation of 600 year old plantations in China.
 Rodstocks

The Rodstocks or Rhizone of an adult bamboo grow underground during autumn

and have shoots that develop in the winter while continuing to produce shoots in
the spring.
 USDA climate Map

Moso Giant Bamboo can be grown in color coded

zones 10 to 5, we prefer zones 6 to 9
 Renewal of Bamboo Leaves
A Self Generating Mulch

The renewal of leaves, is for the OnlyMoso forest, a true method of generating mulch
and natural fertilizer. When leaves are on the ground they naturally break down to
produce humus and at the same time protect the root system from cold and drought.
 Planting Phase

In the planting phase, the use of good quality mulch is highly recommended as this
keeps the ground cool and damp, protects the root system of the young mother plants
and helps the rootstocks to develop.
 Shoots

The shoots, which become fully grown to trunks in only 40 to 60 days can weigh up to
10 pounds. They are a precious food which is rich in minerals and vitamins, commonly
used in both western and Asian cooking.
 Winter Shoots

Winter shoots can be harvested allowing farmers to reap an additional yield without affecting
the productivity of the springtime harvest. Winter shoots also command a higher price per
pound because they are more tender and flavorful.
 Shoot Harvesting and Pruning

The shoot harvesting process serves as a healthy pruning process for the OnlyMoso
forest. If all the shoots were left to grow, only some of them would become adult trunks
as the root base regulates itself based on its ability to nourish new canes.
 Annual Trunk Harvest

The average harvest per acre varies depending on the type of soil, if care was given to
provide ample water and fertilizer and the type of intensity of cultivation. Annually 25-
33% of the adult trunks will be cut between September and February.
Market Demand for the Product: Bamboo SHOOTS
• ➢Weight per Shoot 3lbs. - 10 lbs.
• ➢Sustainable food with very high nutritional values
• ➢Delicious- Popular in the Far East. US market only available canned or
frozen and common with Asian Cuisine
• ➢Vegetarian / Vegan (estimated by 2035: 50 % of the world population
will be vegan)
• ➢Trend- Currently the US imports over 44,000 tons of bamboo shoots from
China every year. To fill this need OnlyMoso needs to plant 14,000 acres of
bamboo.
Anti-Bacterial and repels parasites

OnlyMoso plants naturally contain anti-bacterial and mycotic inhibitor substances which
block the development of damaging parasites and do not require the use of pesticides
which sets it apart from other crops such as cotton.
Market Demand for Bamboo CULMS/CANES
• ➢Valuable raw material
• ➢Renewable and Sustainable eco-resource
• ➢Constantly growing, Harvest Annually
• ➢Multiple Applications: textiles, fabric, construction
Over 1,500 Uses for Bamboo Trunks

According to the type of end use, production of flooring, paper, construction material or
cloths and clothing, the cutting of trunks will occur after a certain number of years.
For example, for the production of timber the trunks are cut after 3 -4 years.
The average harvest per acre varies depending on the type of soil, if care was given to
provide ample water and fertilizer and the type of intensity of cultivation. Annually 25-
33% of the adult trunks will be cut between September and February.
 Irrigation and Fertilizer

The need to irrigate the plants is considerably reduced if a good quality mulch is used. For the
first 2 years 1.5 gallons of water per day should be applied to the base of the plant to insure
success. The use of fertilizer, especially organic, is always beneficial for those wishing to achieve
good production results.
 A MATURE PLANTATION

The renewal of leaves, is for the OnlyMoso forest, a true method of generating mulch
and natural fertilizer. When leaves are on the ground they naturally break down to
produce humus and at the same time protect the root system from cold and drought
 Planning
➢ Ideal time to plant: Spring or Autumn
& Planting

 HELPING you in READING these TABLEs
- All numbers and projections based on ACRE per YEAR
- We have used examples of D200 ( 200 mother plants per acre ) and
D500 ( 500 mother plants per acre ) as illustrations. D300 and D400
omitted.
- The more plants we put in the GROUND per acre, the faster the
harvest WILL REACH full STAGE production. D500 reaches full
production in 5-6 years ; D200 will reach FULL PRODUCTION in 7-9
years. Land management procedures can vary results.
- There are 2 PARTIAL HARVEST years. This means that the plantation
will produce SPROUTs and CANES in the beginning and then will reach
full production during the following years.
- For example-D500: The first partial harvest is usually in YEAR 3 ; and
the second partial harvest year is usually in year 4 Year 5 onwards is
FULL PRODUCTION.
- In D200 those PARTIAL HARVEST YEARS usually happen in YEAR 7 and
8 from THE DAY those MOTHER-PLANTs were PLANTED in the ground.

AERIAL - SLIDE 1
First Step: Design the PLANTING PATTERN
AERIAL - SLIDE 2 Plot layout
DESIGN PATTERN
This is an EXAMPLE of how our Client/Farmer and us
have designed the PLANTING pattern
1: YELLOW Ropes, Iron Rods and Flags :
Example of necessary items to design the planting layout for the MOSO BAMBOO.
Design and mark the land before planting.
Holes should be dug 10-15 inches in DIAMETER and 12-15 inches DEEP.
: Important planting instructions: Maintain proper Plant Height when planting.
IMPORTANT: Remove plant from container. Set aside, and take empty plant container and
set into hole. Empty containers’ top edge should be at ground level, not below ground
level. It is preferable the plant sits 1 inch above ground level. Important to double check.
2: Removing Plants out of the Box :
Sixteen (16) plants per box, therefore be extremely carefull when you take the mother-
plants out of the boxes. Every box has a designated marked corner for “EASY-OPEN”.
Remove the Mother Plants carefully. EVERY hole MUST have a RING of SOIL as shown in
this picture. It is very important to follow the planting instructions.
3: Planting Set-Up
Planting Layout has been designed.
The picture below shows the necessary items required to plant.
4: Important planting instructions: Maintain proper Plant Height when planting.
IMPORTANT: Remove plant from container. Set aside, and take empty plant container and
set into hole. Empty containers’ top edge should be at ground level, not below ground
level. It is preferable the plant sits 1 inch above ground level. Important to double check.
5: COMPACTING the SOIL within the POT
It is possible the soil contained in the pot may have been disturbed during shipment.
Please check and compact the soil using your finger tips. Be careful not to harm the stems
of the motherplant.
6: Removing plant from container and planting:
Over the hole, turn container over and remove plant. Any dirt/fertilizer from the plant will
fall into hole which is ok. When you remove the plant from the container, be careful not to
harm the plant stem or roots. Notice from the picture, a ring of dirt around the hole.
7: Repeat planting process and complete the planting project.
Please make sure to follow the OnlyMoso USA planting
instructions.
8: Place MOTHERPLANT carefully in the HOLE
PLEASE pay attention and use extreme caution to prevent any harm to the plant root
structure. It is Important to handle all the plants with care.
9:Inspect Planting:
All plants should be in the center of hole, upright and 1 inch above ground level.
After inspection 5 to 6 gallons of water should be appied to each plant.
10: WATERING:
A simple process:
Hold base of the plant while another individual pours water around the entire
perimeter of the plant. Remember, Plant base should be 1 inch above the ground level.
Continuation of step 10:
One individual holds the PLANT while another starts pouring water.
Avoid pouring water over the plant itself.
11: Adding FERTILIZER:
Add fertilizer and soil around the perimeter of the plant. Hold the plant at the base, and
hold the stems while another adds the fertilizer. This is a two person process because we
need to make sure the plant is straight and upright.
12: FINAL ADJUSTMENTS and Inspection :
COMPACT the SOIL around the MOTHERPLANT and make sure the plant is upright/straight.
Plant stems pointing upright and not hanging low. Plant base is 1 inch above ground level.
Finished Product:
An example of how the finished product looks after planting.
Please take note of the Water Sprinkler installation. SPRINKLER head position is placed at 60
degrees or 90 degrees of the plant and the water is aimed at the base of the plant.
Fertilize during or after planting :
Slow release fertilizer is recommended plus it will not BURN the plants, roots or Rizhomes.
Fertilize every 180 days or twice per year. 60 grams each applicaton. Florikan Fertilzers are
approved products. ( please ask us for details ).
SPRINKLER Alignment:
Recommendation: one head SPRINKLER per plant; WATERING ANGLE of SPRINKLER head
should be 60° to 90 ° . Apply mulch as shown in example or mulch can applied to entire field
ANGLE of IRRIGATION 60° to 90°
