Hi all!
I'm designing a biofiltration system for the greywater coming from our outdoor kitchen and would like to incorporate a bathtub-sized container of bamboo growing in gravel into the mix. Ideally, I would harvest the new bamboo shoots for eating, cut the larger bamboo poles for use in the garden and for building projects as necessary, in addition to the bamboo's filtering function in the system.
My question to you all is has anyone done this kind of thing in this area (Catskills, NY, zone 5b-ish), how did it work, and where can I source good bamboo plants from for this purpose?
