I have some areas around the house I can't plant because of concrete, so I would like to build some wood boxes for my bananas. What would be a good depth? What about size? I was thinking 1.5 ft deep, 2 ft wide, and 8 ft long

Remember that bananas roots tend to grow outwards more than deep. I would tend to make it equal length and width, or at least 4 feet wide by 8 long.

hope it turns out well for ya,

I would say 20 inches high & about 30 - 36 inches wide for the big nanas.
