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.

Default Pink Velvet & Acuminata Dwarf

can anyone give me a step by step on what to do when I receive these seeds in the mail? (Pink Velvet & Acuminata Dwarf) Or direct me to a step by step thread? Any help would be great. I got 10 seeds of each, how many can I expect to actually grow?

thanks everyone!

Germination guide

This video is by Mr Bungalow. It really is helpful.

Also, the Pink velvet banana you are describing is now called Musa dasycarpa. (formerly Musa velutina)

Ok, but Kman, if you follow the link it will take you to the banana seed germination thread. There is a ton of good info for you there. Perhaps Erlend will re-post the video or email it to you.
Good luck!
