Re: planting basjoo a foot deeper?
Some time last year Gabe posted a link to a study on the benefits to planting Musa Deeper i read it and from what i could determine if you plant the corm up to 6 inches deeper you can expect up to a 40% increase in the amount of fruit it will produce but this study said nothing about winter hardiness for related depth sorry kinda off subject but i thought you all would like to hear it i planted many of my Musa deeper this year and did receive a much lusher canopy i certainly think it helps with protecting the corm from heat related stress so I'm sure the revers would be true also
