I have 5 different varieties of bananas, but when they fruit they only produce a few hands. Should I be thinning the pups or am I not fertilizing or perhaps watering enough?
I maintain 2 to 3 pups to one fruiting plant.
I fertilize with high nitrogen, higher potassium fertilizer, 8 3 9 and additional potassium. I dump lots of banana peels and other compost at base of banana plants.
What's your experience?
Thanks,
Rob
