Re: 1st banana in the pot today !
I know it sounds like a lot of work but... You really should pot it into a smaller pot, say the size of the rootball plus one to two inches all the way around. This should stop the excess water problem that you have. Once the plant has filled the new soil to the bottom of the pot, transplant to a larger size. This way, the plant doesn't sit in soggy soil while trying to root. only water when the soil appears slightly dry on top. This sometimes takes a couple of weeks after you have severed it from the mother.
