		Running bamboo species are highly variable in their tendency to spread; this is related to both the species and the soil and climate conditions.
		When bamboo is harvested for wood, care is needed to select mature stems that are several years old, as first-year stems, although full size, are not fully woody and are not strong.
		Bamboo canes are normally round in cross-section, but square canes can be produced by forcing the new young culms to grow through a tube of square cross-section and slightly smaller than the culm's natural diameter, thereby constricting the growth to the shape of the tube.

		The result was a high-pitched spectrum of roughly musical tones which kept both time and rhythm to the tunes being sung or played - a foretaste of the role held by the "iron" in the present day steel orchestra.

	man4bmo: my fave band
		After Bamboo won the Best Group, Best New Artist, and the Favorite Song (for "Noypi") awards at last year's MTV Pilipinas Awards, it seems like there is no other way to go but up for the band led by ex-Rivermaya frontman Bamboo Mañalac, with Nathan Azarcon (bass), Ira Cruz (guitars), and Vic Mercado (drums).
		The fast ascent of the band may be partly attributed to the fact that Bamboo's frontman had his own loyal set of fans to begin with, but we’d like to think that the band has successfully proven their mettle after a string of hits and Bamboo the frontman has grown out of his Rivermaya days.
		Today, Bamboo is nothing less than a respected band with a distinct, addicting sound to which every music buff from any school of rock can easily get hooked.
