Default Re: G.M. , Paggi and Mysore

I moved mine out of the greenhouse in March with the rest of my bananas to plant. It took the winter BAD! Looked horriable. I figured it would take off like everything else. It didn't! I figured it was stuck so I cut it. Nothing. Cut it again. Nothing. Finally about 3 weeks ago pulled it out of the pot. Roots were not bad but no new ones. I was worried I would loose the current grow point so I cut to the corm and all roots off and stuck it in coarse sand. its goring again. About 6" tall about to unroll its leaf. It was a big corm thanks to Steve. Not for sure it was the cold or it doesn't like me. Haha. I'm happy it's alive. How is yours Steve? Did it handle winter well?

Steve also I read awhile ago if you fertilize with too much nitrogen after flowering it can turn some or all of the fruit black! Not sure if that was the problem or not just wanted to share the info.
