Re: Musa not growing
One of the photos shows the bottom of the leaf at the top of the soil. How deep are you planting the corm? .... The top of the corn (where it turns white on the pstem) should be at the soil surface!
The photos shows marginal chlorosis similar to over watering or Calcium deficiency. .... After looking again, I think calcium deficiency with the leaf splitting & curling. Try treating with 30 g of calcium per pot and may be a 1/2 table spoon of calcium nitrate. |
