Growth Rate of a new culm in Western PA
This is done with personal research by me. In the future, I may add this to the main article.

The culm in this experiment was transplanted 3 weeks prior to the start of growth. The bud underground was formed most likely way before the transplant. There was a second smaller shoot that appeared a day after the larger one, but this one failed. This transplant consisted of 3 culms that were 10 feet in height each. The tallest culm was lost in the transplant, due to breakage.

In Pennsylvania, a healthy grove will produce shoots that are higher and most likely grow faster than this example. The monther grove where this planting came from had many examples that were over 30 feet tall and 2-3 inches in diameter in a Zone 5b Climate.

10 - 4" - 78F (Sunny) - First noticed the shoot.

11 - 6" - 69F (Thunderstorms)

12 - 7.5" - 59F (Cloudy)

13 - 9.25" - 64F (P. Cloudy)

14 - 13" - 69F (Thunderstorms)

15 - 16" - 51F (Cloudy)

16 - 17.5" - 55F (Cloudy)

17 - 20.5" - 64F (Cloudy)

18 - 23.5" - 60F (P. Cloudy)

19 - 26" - 51F (P. Cloudy)

20 - 29" - 60 (Cloudy) - Bottom culm sheaf breaks away from bottom node.

21 - 31.5" - 60F (Sunny)

22 - 34" - 60F (M. Sunny) - Second culm sheaf breaks away

23 - 37.5" - 64F (Sunny)

24 - 44" - 73F (Sunny) - Record Growth of 6.5 Inches

25 - 52" - 75F (Am Rain, PM Sun) - Record Growth of 8 Inches

26 - 62" - 71F (AM Thunderstorms, PM Sun) - Record Growth of 10 Inches

27 - 74" - 78F (Mostly Sunny) - Record Growth of 12 Inches, stems first emerge.

28 - 86" - 84F (Sunny)

29 - 97" - 87F (Sunny) - Many side stem coming out. Culm is becoming difficult to measure. It's very close to being taller than existing culms, and looks like it will pass that barrier with ease.

30 - 109" - 89F (Sunny) - Now taller than exisiting culms. 109" in 20 days.

31 - 115" - (80's) (Sunnny w/ late T-Storms) First slow down, but it's over a foot taller than it's 3 sister culms.
