Hi All
I am new to this site. Was looking on how to grow Ensete perrieeri. I have started one from seed and is about 2" tall. I don't know at what stage the plant should be in when I should transplant it. Would appreciate any suggestions you all may have.

Thanks to you all

Welcome to the org! I have not grown this plant but this advise should still be good. And of course,experts please correct me if I am wrong.
Transplant to larger pots slowly. Meaning don't jump from a 4 inch to a 8 inch. A little pot bound is better than going to large to fast. Well draining soil is a must. Pop it out of the pot and look. Is it pot bound? If yes,pot it up. If the roots are turning brown,too much water. After a while just looking at the plant it will tell you what it wants or needs. Good luck with the little guy. I hope this helps. There many org members that have many years of growing these plants that can add more info.
