Re: Will bananas fruit growing in grass?
Definitely keep cutting the grass and use the clippings to mulch the bananas. It also sounds like your bananas can use some companion plants that will shade out the grass around them. Tithonia diversifolia and bananas are the dream team in my opinion. Tithonia creates dense shade on the ground and grows very fast. You can cut it for additional mulch to feed the bananas. But you won't be able to grow that if you're below zone 9. If you are in a cooler zone, maybe try thornless blackberries or raspberries.
