Re: Pruning bananas leaves
Several members on here say only cut off brown or dead leaves. Anything green is still providing energy to the plant.
I don't know if there is any truth to 'forcing' the plant to grow new leaves by cutting off healthy leaves.
Bananas are very resilient they will still continue to grow even if you chop off all the leaves.
