Why not? they look relaxing to look at while swaying on a windy day. You'd only hate them in clusters and when they mature (they creak loud). Also fun if you want to own a katana and just pretend to train around them?
Cause once they get established they are really hard to get rid of. Maybe when I own many acres I can have some in a corner I dont mind. But having them close to home your just asking for them to overrun your house.
They do look nice, and I do like hanging out in Bamboo forests but if I had to remove it, that just pure hell.
Hah I got to try that with a sword sometime.
I see, I never looked at it that way. I lived in the rural mountains and didn't see having bamboo surrounding your house was a bad thing other than having a storm brewing near. They have a lot of use case for furniture, coal, and food source from the shoots so removing them wasn't a chore but treated as a livelihood.
Delicious bamboo shoots... not sure if all bamboo species are good to eat though.
Good luck on creating that bamboo forest, you can probably open a small place to get the same experience for tourists wanting to try making their own chopsticks and cook on bamboo too.
Thanks Solo~~~ I really didnt expect much from this trip in the beginning, but as I start to see and feel and make it from the raw..... I was mindblown on how useful bamboo can offer to us both functionally as tools and equally tasty as food. Its like.... for example... metal.... great function... but you cant eat metal! hahahahaha!
I need to eat some, I have never ate any bamboo. But yeah I see bamboo used as scaffolding for buildings in Asian countries. So yeah it for sure has many utilities.
Solo, when I see you again my wife will cook you a dish of bamboo. Its amazingly healthy and taste great. I promise you the next time we meet. :)
Sounds good man.. looking forward to that.
