Water the pot at least twice a week. If it's planted in the dirt you may need to water more frequently. Don't water everyday though, that could cause root rot.

Ensure the plant gets a nice amount of sun. Bamboo, like all plants, needs good sun exposure to be able to grow. Don't expose the plant to direct sunlight, but keep it in a brightly lit room-just not in the window seal.

I keep my plant in my room, in a glass container with rocks filled with water. It has been getting a white skim layer on top of the water... anyone know why or how this can be prevented?
