Default Re: Article on banana fertilization and nutrient deficiencies

I've used a lot of cow manure just on that one plant. It has gotten a regular liquid feed of 20-20-20.. I do usually dilute it a little bit more than directed b/c that's pretty strong. I will also put some granular fert. on it... not being real specific about what I'm doing, but I side dress the plant regularly. A lot of times it's organic fertilizer so it's kind of weak. I just got some super potash today 0-0-60. It won't be immediately available to the plant and I'm a little bit cautious about using something that strong.. so I'll have to go light with it at first. I'm going to do some fish emulsion as a foliar spray in the mean time to hopefully boost the plant for now. Not much K in that though.
