I made a big mistake. And hopefully caught it in time. I have had 6 banana plants in big containers for two years. Watered constantly, fertilized regularly and talked to them daily.

But have not checked the PH in the soils within the last year.
Noticed leaves showing some yellowing, so I checked the PH of all 6 pots.
All were around 4.5. What a big mistake on my part. Hopefully bringing the PH back up slowly will make my Bananas grow and resume their bright green coloring.

Don't forget to check that PH...…………
