Thanks Beam
what i found rather hilarious about this post is the fact some of them told me to mulch heavy when i just posted to mulch lite for light rains.....whats a mother to do. ....... one of the best things i used for mulch was spanish moss. onward and upward.


here some of the best advice is given from a personal/certain location, weather, soil. etc.
its like they tell you plant bananas in a well draining area. i at first thought i had it made. appears i am to well draining making it to high acidity. some bananas i cant get to grow much more than a foot high, rajapuri..?.....9b/8a...........i have 3 fruiting right now.
also depends on what kind of banana

well, keep the roundup off the leaves as best as possible and watch for pup. little suckers pop up anywhere.
