In Need of some help
this is the first time I am growing a banana tree. I am growing a dwaft banana tree inside under florescent grow lights. When I first started the leaves were a very nice color green, and now the leaves are starting to turn yellow and brown. when I water them the water ph is between 6.0 and 6.5, I have been growing the tree for about 6 months now. I have attached pictures
Please any help would be great [IMG][/IMG] |

Please any help would be great It may be too much water, let it dry out between watering. In the dormant season they don't use much water.

Re: In Need of some help
Excessive water during winter, or low temps. Half of my bananas look like that. I water once a week, to week and a half.
