Default Re: What did you plant today (bananas)?

Ok so it's way too early to be planting bananas outdoors in New Jersey right now but... I had to get my bananas out of the rented greenhouse to make room for the owners stock. No problem ... I put all the others in my hoop house and have a heater for it if neccesary... which I doubt since it's only been getting to the mid 40's for the most part and only for a short while near dawn. My ice cream banana though which was 8 1/2 ft( p- stem height) with a 6 ft pup was cut down to 6 ft and is back up to 7 with some new leaves growing already so.... I mulched it heavily around the base and wrapped it in plastic... on the warm sunny days I'll open the top to vent and close it back up at night for a few weeks....
