Default Re: Hello From Ohio!

Hi Michele,

If the any leaves are totally brown they can be cut off. I presume the plant is inside since Ohio in the winter is just like NJ. Be careful not to overwater it, that is most important. Let the topsoil get dry before watering. Not sure what size pot you put it in, but in the spring you can put it outside either in the ground, or in the largest pot you can get (in retrospect all of my bananas would have benefited from much larger pots) and watch it grow. If it is 2 feet now, there's a chance it will get a lot bigger than 6 feet, and will likely have many pups. My 3 Basjoos all had at least 10 pups each their first year.

Welcome, and good luck!

~Joe
