Re: Other Michigan Banana people?
Well, I'm not from Michigan but somewhere around the same lattitude, in Toronto Canada.
I have found that basjoos need three important things to reach their full size potential and produce a lot of pups. Plenty of water every day (in well drained soil of course) as much sunlight as possible, and tons of nitrogen. I use 21:0:0 weekly, with dose of 21:7:7 once a month, you may want to try that.
Last year they got so big in my front yard that they were stopping traffic by the end of the season. I brought three of the six pups inside for the winter and put them under lights.......just in case.
Good luck with your plants.
