How often do you folks water your large banana plants? Do you thoroughly soak or just sprinkle? I noticed mounds of mulch around the banana plants in your pictures. Does that mean you water less often? Can you get away with not watering for over a week in the summer (without rain)?

I'm still new at this and need all the advice I can get.
