Default Re: Mysore not growing.

If you say the inner soil was bone dry,then that should be the reason. Has water thoroughly wetted all soil now? It's pretty hard and a slow proccess to rehydrate such a soil again by just watering it from above. I would suggest a soak of the whole pot in a bucket of water with a water level preferably up to where the soil level is. That will work great in rehydrating the now hygrophobic soil within half an hour to a few hours.
Your banana should then start growing in a week or 2,depending on the root damage it has from the drought.
