New Here: Nice to meet you all
Hi all,
I am Fred. I have been growing bananas for a few months now. Currently I have Musa Basjoo 5 ft tall, currently diseased need help: Black rust / mark on all leaves and stem of musa basjoo - Bananas.org Musa Iterans 3 ft tall Musa Velutina pup Ensete Maurelii 2ft tall Previously kept Musa Laprioscopa for years. So I have quite a bit of experience but not enough it seems, given the issues with my Musa Basjoo at the moment. If anyone wants to say hi or help me out with my Basjoo. Would be much appreciated. Thanks, Fred (UK). |

Soil mix is standard compost non dense mix for potting plants. Free Draining. Recently upgraded from a 9 Litre to a 29 Litre/7.25 Gallon pot. I want to keep in a pot in case I have to move out. Growing in a conservatory, with some sunlight and shade. Never been in full sunlight. I have been occasionally feeding a synthetic fast acting fertilizer for banana plants. The black marks are on old and newish leaves. Latest leaves do not have these marks but I expect that to change. Currently on 90% of the leaves. There is a lot of Guttation from the plant which tells me I am overwatering it. Cheers, Fred Back in July: Last edited by Musa.Ingenious : 08-12-2021 at 10:15 AM. |
