Have not used liquid kelp. But any mild organic fertilizer treatment is not likely to hurt. Just so long as it does not contain much sodium. I know foliar sprays can quickly treat certain deficiencies (such as N), but the normal uptake route for most nutrients is the roots. Does the product you are using list what nutrients and micro nutrients it contains?

Made by
www.gsplantfoods.com and made from Ascophyllum Nodosu.
About 1+% N; 0.23%P and 6%K. Trace amounts of sulfur, magnesium, calcium, sodium, boron, iron, manganese, copper, zinc and carbohydrates. Use 1 part kelp to 10 parts water.

If you have some you want to put on the bamboo, it will probably be good for it. If you have more than one plant, why not try it on some and not the others (in similar light and soil conditions). It would be great to have a report back as to whether this product works.
