Default Banana hobbyist...

Howdy folks! I'm a banana hobbyist from Ohio originally, but living in North Carolina.

I have about 6 bananas in the yard (plus pups) right now and I've usually cut them down every year. This year, I'm going to try digging them up. I hope that works.

I'm married (15+ years) to my high school sweetheart and we have two youngsters. Both like the bananas ... I think.

Heath where in OHIO are you from. I grew up just outside of Dayton until after high school, then moved to Charlotte NC for 5 years then finally rested here in Nashville...Good to have you here. You'll find all the info you need for raising any type of banana you want. Just ask away or do like I did and spend a couple hundred hours reading the old posts LOL

Originally up Cleveland way...about 40 miles SSW of C-town.

I was stationed at Wright-Patt and know my way around Dayton a good little bit.

Thanks for the advice.

Go Buckeyes!!!
