To create an inexpensive privacy screen using clumping bamboo from Ocoee Bamboo Farm, you'll need to follow a few steps. Keep in mind that this is a general guide, and you may need to adapt it based on your specific requirements and the availability of materials.
Here's how you can proceed:
1. Measure and plan: Determine the length and height of the privacy screen you need. This will help you estimate the amount of bamboo and other materials required.
2. Obtain clumping bamboo: Contact Ocoee Bamboo Farm to inquire about purchasing clumping bamboo. Provide them with the measurements and specifications of the privacy screen you intend to build. They will be able to advise you on the quantity of bamboo you'll need and the varieties they have available. Clumping bamboo is a good choice as it tends to stay contained and doesn't spread aggressively like running bamboo.
3. Prepare the site: Clear the area where you plan to install the privacy screen. Remove any existing vegetation, rocks, or debris. Level the ground if necessary
4. Plant the bamboo: Place the clumping bamboo plants in the ground, spacing them according to the recommended guidelines for the specific bamboo variety you're using. Planting distance may vary, but it's generally around 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters) apart. Follow any planting instructions provided by Ocoee Bamboo Farm or seek advice from them directly.
5. Secure the bamboo: Use wire or plastic zip ties to attach the bamboo plants to the support posts. This will help keep the plants upright and prevent them from bending or falling over
6. Maintain and trim: As the bamboo grows, you may need to periodically trim the plants to maintain the desired height and shape of the privacy screen. Follow proper pruning techniques to avoid damaging the plants.
Note: Prices and availability of materials may vary, so it's best to contact Ocoee Bamboo Farm directly for the most accurate information regarding their products and pricing. 407-777-4807
