Re: Basjoos froze...heater failed in greenhouse
Pitangodiego has a very useful pruning mantra for bananas: "green is good, brown is bad". And of course, brown that turns black is totally dead. The plant won't be needing much in the way of solar panels since as you say the light levels are low this time of year. Your worst enemy will be corm rot. The plant is not going to grow much, and hence its water needs will be low. An issue with indoor growing is that humidity is very low -- especially during the winter when the heater is on. Misting the plant once a day is good strategy but again be careful of the soil. It should be moist at the holes in the bottom of the pot but not wet or soggy. When you do water it, let it drain somewhere for a day before putting the pot on any sort of dish or tray.
