Dwarf Cavendish
I received my Dwarf Cavendish plant on June 9, 2008. The plant is amazingly growing healthly. I'm new at this and would appreciate any info and advice that will be helpful for me to continue its growing process.
thank you |

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
Compost and or manure work very well around the plant.
Mix it with the native soil 50/50 if it is in the ground. Fertilize some water frequently but not standing water. When it gets going use a fertilizer with higher potassium. I have a lot of the Mahoi; Double Bananas, they are strong and sturdy plants. You will enjoy it.

Re: Dwarf Cavendish
I used a mushroom compost for my DC. The 50/50 mix with the native. I think I did add some cow manure as well. That combo seemed to work really well for the DC. Happy Healthy Plant.
