Lucky Bamboo Fungus On Roots
The roots of my bamboo plants acquired fungus over the course of a 2 week trip out of town. I rinsed them thoroughly, but the plants are still declining in health. I was thinking of cutting off the root ball. Is this a fatal maneuver? How might I save them?

Robert,
It is perfectly acceptable to cut off roots and let the stalks develop new roots. In this case I think that would be the best course of action. Be sure to clean your lucky bamboo container and fill with fresh water. Use distilled water for best results.
