Banana Seed Germination Forum As one of the toughest seeds in the plant kingdom to figure out the keys to germination success with, this is a forum with banana seed germination tips. Please entitle posts like "Musa balbisiana," or "Musa cheesmani," etc. People would then post a reply under that heading, sharing their germination successes (and failures), what materials and methods they used, germination percentage, etc. |

![]() Mr. BananaBill,
Congrats, and thanks for the update!!! Man, looks like you have what it takes to get these babies coaxed up and growing!!! Sorry, I can't venture a guess on the brown/black speck on the leaf, but it doesn't look like much to worry about. Hopefully one of the "true" nanner gurus will be able to shed some light on what caused it. Again, congrats on the success you are having with the seeds, and please keep us updated to their progress.... Randy |
