Hey guys,
So happy to have found this excellent forum!! Recently purchased my first two Musa Basjoo's and having some difficulty. . I had them in coconut fiber mixed with cow manure but they didn't seem too happy.. Wet feet perhaps? The coco fiber was a little dense.. Apparently over-fed with a general miraclegro that burnt them =/ 20-20-20 i think. . . The new growth that came after the feeding has turned yellow as it looks in the pic, hopefully it will work.. I have now repotted with 50/50 african violet soil (lower ph) and cow manure. Added a handful of perlite and sand to the mix as well. Also added about 4 cups milorganite, and some super thrive. Any suggestions? Thanks so much!
