![]() Hey everyone........ Here is an updated photo of my banana pups. I now have 6 in total as seen in photo below but nothing yet on my other banana plants from last year. I think it's because of more sunlight hitting this plant than others.
I would like info on when is the right time and how to separate these pups. I also need to know what fertilizer works best. Our home is being featured in a home garden show on June 18th and would like to help speed up these pups so they can look as best as possible. Thanks...... ![]() |

![]() Tough to really cheat nature but I'd consider some high nitrogen Like Alaska 5-1-1 fish emulsion. Can you provide extra heat maybe using a plastic tent, just make sure not to fry them ,leave an opening during the day and cover at night might give a few extra degrees to boost their "metabolism".

![]() if your nights are still cool in ct. i would use the plastic tent idea too. like the other guy said, to try to trap heat and get the thing to grow.when it pushes out a few leaves then i would remove the tent.i wouldnt advise adding any fertilizer or watering the thing untill it started actually pushing out a few leaves. hope this helps.
