Default Re: The Potential of Musa Basjoo

I used a mixture of fertilizer. When the plants are small, I'd recommend an all purpose liquid fertilizer especially one with micronutrients. I think Peters acid loving fertilizer has micros--I've used this quite a bit. As the plants grow, I'd use a slow release fertilizer like Osmocote.
