Hi there my name is dean and live in south east London in the uk.
I am really into my bananas this year with around 11 different variants. I have as follows, Basjoo's St helen Maurelli's Montbeliardii's Thai black Sikkimensis Ventricosum Glaucoma Griersonni's Cheesemani's Lasiocarpa Some I have had for a few years and getting a fair size now. Also got a few problems with I think overwatering. Oops. If I over water and they start too get brown spotty leaves if I lay off the watering will it come back or will I have to dig out and dry the roots out. Kind regards Dean |

Re: Newbie alert
Welcome!
 I'm not too experienced with other species of bananas other than velutina and edible hybrids, but, from those that I know - The only way one can over-water a banana is via waterlogged, poorly drained soil or over-watering them when temperatures are too low. Otherwise, bananas looove water. |

Re: Newbie alert
Thank you for all your welcomes.
With the overwatering we have had a heat wave over here and the bananas have been out the front where the sun is present from around 11 in the morning til 7 at night. So I upped my watering to everyday instead of every other day. I backed off when got cooler but by the sounds of it not enough. |
