Feed your lucky bamboo plant every three to four weeks with liquid fertilizer, like Green Green, if it's in water. Or use time-released food pellets if it's planted in soil. Technically, dracaena sanderiana is not a bamboo plant but a popular, easy-to-grow houseplant that prefers indirect sunlight.
