![]() Hello! I'm new to the scene and really wanting to find out the proper care and maintenance I should be tending to my tiny musa banana plant.
I've been reading different sites that have suggested different types of fertilizers but when I try to find the fertilizers I have zero luck. If anyone could give me suggestions, that would be awesome! |

If you use the search engine here on bananas.org, you will find a lot about fertilizer options. The WIKI here on bananas.org also has some good advice. My favorite fertilizer is the Fruit Fuel 16-8-24 (N-P-K). It is water soluble with micronutrients, easy to use. |

![]() We are more help with more info. Where are you at? Is it in a pot or the ground? and of course, give us pictures, we love them! If you don't want to order fruit fuel, tomato fertilizer is close enough.

![]() Welcome aboard the Banana Express.
![]() It's possible your plant is a water sucker and will always be a runt. Please post a pic.
