Default Re: What's wrong with my Red Iholene?

Hi mushtaq86,

I am growing a Red in there relatively ok and its fast growing so far!

My Red Iholene is planted in a relatively fast draining medium with sand added for drainage and kept on the dry side but with plenty of moisture at the bottom half of the pot. Its not the best medium but its a decent one and kept relatively dry,it served me ok last year with 2 other bananas. Since last week,i am using a better mixture for my bananas but this one and most of my bananas,were repotted earlier and are in the old mixture.

There is no natural sunlight where its growing but it gets fluorescent lighting. Temperature is at 24C and humidity is very high(droplets fall from the ceiling....). Air circulation is not good though and that is a call for problems but i dont have a fan i can use for the time being.
