Default Re: high temperature banana growing habits

when i separate them i dig down around them with my hand that way i don't risk cutting them with my shovel its always a pretty good idea to wait until there fair sized to separate them that way you can be reasonably sure they have some roots this is particularly important in desert climates you know leaving up to two pups on the mothers is always a good idea that way you have a steady supply of fruit on a yearly bases that one you separated dig it up and put it in a pot for the summer take it inside its never going to live just sticking it in the ground the heat will kill it with in a day like i said in the previous posts they are fragile until they get some size on them that first year is tough for the pups
