i just changed the soil today. i put some clay pieces and sand on the bottom and then filled it up with regular soil.





sry i dont know why the pics turn sideways. in my pdfs they are upright. sorry for that!
Regular soil is risky if you grow in pots indoors. It keeps too much moisture. I do my own mixes and always put at least 40% coarse sand in the mix. My nanners do great with that ratio. It drains well.
Your pot seems to be way too small for a nanner that size.
I'd put on some lights for sure and start thinking about fertilization.
Plants don't like when we move them so with time and a bit of care, it should be fine.
