Valuable info, Richard. I happened upon a "fact sheet" from Just Fruits & Exotics in North Florida in which they mix a custom blend of banana fertilizer using 1 part Urea Ammonium Nitrate and 3 parts Murate (sic?) of Potash. This led me to believe that it would be safe, but I've since found other sources that warn against it. http://www.justfruitsandexotics.com/JF%20Banana.pdf Some of the info presented in the fact sheet seems a bit odd, so this doesn't surprise me.
