Default Re: How much fertilizer can a banana tree tolerate?

Also throttle up gradually. My first feeding is usually manure only. 2nd is manure and 50% dose of fertilizer. 3rd is full strength.
It really depends on what your feeding. Organic is slower, but a lot safer on the plant. Chemical fertilizer is much faster, but easy to "nuke" the ground.
Whatever you decide on, I would recommend a product called "Superthrive" this stuff is magic
