![]() If that is a flower bud the answer is No. Leafing is done.

![]() Not acquainted with Basjoo specifically, but normally bananas cease producing new leaves when they flower.

Most of the energy/nutrients needed is already stored in the plant. Uptake from the roots is greatly reduced after shooting (flowering). The bigger problem is the lack of leaves which reduces the sap circulation because of the reduced water transpiration. The bunch has the flag leaf and the fingers are green, so some photostat of the chlorophyll will take place. ... the bunch is not going to be big but some of the finger should mature. ... Again foliar spraying the bunch will help to feed needed nutrients and increase finger size. good luck |
