That's great results. ... But... while the UGa research reports indicated several Banana varieties can flower & fruit 24 to 26 weeks after transplanting in March, this will be too late in the year for the fruit to ripen. The reports also indicated several varieties proved to be choked the following spring. The banana plants were starting to push the flower when frost & cold set in and thus was coked the next spring. So I'll reduce the fertilizer application to 60% to 70% of the recommended amounts for this season; then apply full amount the beginning of next spring in hopes of forcing the flower & fruiting early next summer. ... Our problem is timing as was with the banana trials.
