Kyle's seeds

Inoneear · 11-24-2007, 04:41 PM

M. sikkimensis X paradisica M.balbisiana'Gigantea' From Kyle have started to sprout. All are from the same tray, planted in Dutch Treat starter mix and on a heat mat with a 12 hour cycle.

how long did it take for them to germinate?

Tropicallvr · 11-24-2007, 06:33 PM

Allright! Makes me happy to see you got them sprouting!

Inoneear · 11-24-2007, 06:42 PM

They were planted on Nov. 7 after a 24 hour soak.

mskitty38583 · 11-24-2007, 07:35 PM

wow.thats fast.

Inoneear · 11-28-2007, 11:59 PM

Two M. sikkimensis X paradisica in another tray on the top of my plant shelf has sprouted. Temp. of soil while lights were on in room was 28c, 82.4F.

This morning I noticed that the B. Gigantea have sprouted for me too. I soaked mine for about 6hrs and planted them in one of those 'Glad' re-useable containers with Miracle Grow potting soil and the lid on. I only watered them when they were first planted and did not use bottom heat. The lid traps the moisture and heat. Did anyone find information or pictures for the Balbisiana Gigantea?

that looks great!
and at wich temperature??

Lard Greystoke · 12-08-2007, 10:45 PM

I also have a couple of seedlings, 1st one after 3 weeks. They spent the first few weeks at room temp, so I expect more now that I've got them on heatmat.

Here's what to expect from Musa sikkimensis X paradisica-
The one pic of M.balbisian 'Gigantea' is a really poor pic of bananas(not worth linking)

mskitty38583 · 12-13-2007, 06:34 PM
