Re: How much fertilizer can a banana tree tolerate?
Almost the same cycle I use. Mature adults get 10-10-10 once a month. Then every 10 days I mix 1/4c urea and 1/2c sop per 5 gallon bucket, per tree. The ground bleeds, volcanoes erupt, but the bananas grow like weeds

Re: How much fertilizer can a banana tree tolerate?
Also I only use manure only on small plants. When they get 3-4' depending on the variety, then they start getting the stronger stuff also.
I do put the manure pretty deep even on small plants. It will push a small plant to grow great. Here they either grow or get covered up lol.
