Re: How to start my banana
Indoors or outdoors?
And for the latter, your locale? If indoors, your plants for photo energy sources?

Re: How to start my banana
Outdoors in the summer and indoors during the winter. My container is about 15-20 gallon. Now on that note should my container have holes for drainage or could I put a layer of rocks on the bottom? I live in Southern Indiana.

Re: How to start my banana
Drainage yes and get a reservoir tray to fit the bottom; even outside it shouldn't hold too much water and inside you need it to protect your floors unless they're tile over concrete like mine.
