Re: Time to put the bananas to sleep for the Winter
Hey all. Sorry to hear you have to put up your bananas for the winter.
There is something you can do for an early jump on planting. I use black plastic to keep the weeds down and I just plant thru it.
I noticed that it also did a wonderful job of warming the soil in early spring so I could get my peppers and 'maters in the ground sooner.
I figure you zone map challenged could warm your soil and maybe tent or at the least block cold winds from your nanners to get more 'ground time' for flowers and fruit.
Just an idea...
