Shun passed the test of being able to run his household with the two emperor's daughters as wives, and thus Yao made Shun his successor, bypassing his unworthy son. After Shun's death, the tears of his two bereaved wives fell upon the bamboos growing there explains the origin of spotted bamboo. The two women later became goddesses Xiangshuishen after drowning themselves in the Xiang River. In southern India and some regions of southwest China, the seeds of the dying bamboo plant are consumed as a grain known as "bamboo rice". The taste of cooked bamboo seeds is reported to be similar to wheat and the appearance similar to rice, but bamboo seeds have been found to have lower nutrient levels than both. [75] The seeds can be pulverized into a flour with which to make cakes. [69] Upright in habit, Arrow bamboo is very tolerant and will cope with either an exposed or sheltered aspect and clay, loam or sandy soil.

Sharpened bamboo javelins weighted with sand known as bagakay were used as disposable missile weapons in both land and naval warfare in the Philippines. They were thrown in groups at a time at enemy ships or massed enemy formations. Non-disposable finely-crafted throwing spears made from bamboo weighted with sand known as sugob were also used. Sugob were mainly used for close-quarters combat and were only thrown when they could be retrieved. [93] [94] Kaminski, S.; Lawrence, A.; Trujillo, D. (2016). "Structural use of bamboo.

The variety within bamboo is such that some differences between species are quite stark; consider that bamboo shoots of only some species are edible. Lee, Andy W.C.; Liu, Yihai (June 2003).

Non-chemical methods involve digging out clumps of bamboo and restricting the size. This can be difficult with very large plants, or on heavy soil. Use a sharp spade to dig up the entire clump or to remove sections from the edge of the clump that have grown beyond the limits. Sever the rhizomes as you go, lifting and removing them with a fork or trowel. Consider replanting the original clump, or a division of it, inside a physical barrier to prevent future spread.
