1/4 teaspoon per gallon every time you water, or 1 Tablespoon per gallon once per month.

Your fruiting banana plants will perform better with a potassium supplement. You want something that does not contain chlorine. There are a number of choices for this. If/when you find something, send me a PM and I'll give you a dosage to go along with your miracle gro.

I do not think, that starting a thread implies ownership. And manure is attractive .
It has inspired plenty conversation in other threads.

Hijacking a thread? Preposterous!! Did I tell you about my cannas? LOL

The above is a shoutout to our old friend Tog, president of the Hijack Society. RIP my friend.

Supplementing with 1/8 cup (2 level Tablespoons) of SUL-PO-MAG will provide a good nitrogen-to-potash ratio for fruiting bananas. Its water-soluble.

Sul-Po-Mag is sold by many garden centers, typically in a 4-lb box, 15-lb bag, and 50-lb bags.

It must have been a fresh cow manure. You need to wait a few months before using it.
