Default Re: making a suitable banana site

Jack,
I would use composted manure, and lots of it. Skip the sand though. Sand will just fill in spaces where macropores were...not good with clay. Just add lots of organic matter, and you should be fine. Dig a nice, large area, with room for the banana to spread.
