Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the life span of these stakes?
Due to varying temperature and weather, it is hard to put a specific time on the life span, but generally bamboo is good for one growing season.
2. At what part of the cane is the diameter measured?
Diameter is taken at the base of the cane. Since this is a natural product canes will vary, and they will taper at the top.
3. What does "First Cut" mean?
Let's say that, in the field, a 15-foot length of bamboo is harvested. From this 15-foot length, we need an 8-foot finished cane. The 8-foot section is taken from the more flexible, sturdier section of cane. That's first-cut bamboo. The remaining 7 feet of the cane is then offered as second-cut bamboo. If the second piece is cut to a new size, you would create third-cut bamboo and so on.
4. Why is "First Cut" bamboo better??
First-cut bamboo has a more elastic structure and is sturdier and longer-lasting than subsequent cuts. Later-cut bamboo is sometimes sold cheaply because it has fibrous walls and much less flexibility. Second-cut bamboo will be more likely to snap or split in the field.
