I'm still new at this and need all the advice I can get.
I water them once a week normally, maybe twice..

All my Banana's besides the one in the pic are watered every other day that happen to be in pots, and the others in the ground get watered everyday. When I water the one's from the pic its a heavy soaking, since I don't have a water line out there yet.. The mulch keeps out the weeds too.. :^)

watering frequency is going to depend on your soil type too... if you use a lot of perlite like me, you will need to water more frequently. i water every other day, sometimes more frequently if it's really hot out
