CValentine · 06-18-2009, 10:11 AM

I didn't post this yesterday because I read about Tog & was too upset to concentrate...

Well, it was yesterday that I repotted these Dwarf Orinoco's.
Their former homes you can see are on the bottom left...LOL!

I put a good quality Topsoil, some Perlite & Peat..& the kids & I scrundged it all together really good!

Raising the next generation of Banana Fanatics!!

Have a wonderful week Y'all!!

saltydad · 06-20-2009, 11:17 PM

Not a banana, but I potted up a cutting of Plumeria. It broke off of my 6 ft. tree when I was transplanting it from a pot to the ground for the summer. Had to wait until the end was calloused first. Already has 2 leaves on it!

Lagniappe · 07-11-2009, 05:54 PM

Re-potted my Florida Variegate and bumped my High color mini to a 30 gallon.

cowboyup4christ · 07-18-2009, 09:59 PM

Just picked up a Musa Bordelon' Banana and a Musa Dwarf Cavindish from lowes they had broken leaves and pot was dry so I got them for 6.50 each maybe they will make it. Bordelon had three pups with it in a little 8" pot so I stuck them in a bigger pot to try to nurse them back to health. pictures in gallery. Banana Gallery - cowboyup4christ Album

D_&_T · 07-19-2009, 02:15 PM

Sadly all but one of our bananas are potted, with a basjoo planted in front yard!!

OH do we need a heated greenhouse!

neferset · 07-23-2009, 12:11 PM

Two new Dwarf Orinocos and I repotted the Truly Tiny on the grounds that I should probably have used a 6 inch pot to begin with.

Taylor · 07-23-2009, 12:15 PM

Yesterday, I potted an impulsively-bought Zebrina root-bound from 1 gallon into probably a 3 or 5 gallon decorative pot. I really missed it, believe it or not, after losing it this past winter!

Caloosamusa · 07-26-2009, 04:56 PM

Today I traded with a neighbor and got a Hua Moa (Hawaiiano) pup that was three feet tall, and a unknown sweet banana plant(almost three feet) whose fruit gets to be larger than a foot long.

Rooting hormone was added during the potting process to speed up the process. The pots are only a temporary home. Good weather and growing to all!!

Lets see if the Texas Start can catch up! Looks like you're ready for a race, Tony!

sunfish · 07-27-2009, 09:20 PM

That was the idea. A couple more weeks and I will put them in the ground , within 6ft. of each other , and see what happens.

CValentine · 07-28-2009, 09:02 AM

I got 4 of my bananas from Scot...

Just need to put a light layer of mulch on top & they're ready to grow!!

Hope to get my Kru & SDC soon!!!

Cheryl,

I sent you a PM about the Kru & SDC. I don't know if you've read it since I haven't heard back from you. And although I'm not sure, I think that I also sent you an email, as well. If you have not read the PM nor the email, please let me know. I will re-send them. Also, you might check your Spam mail for my email: Neurhealth@aol.com. It might have gone there.

Thanks.

Chong

This evening I transplanted 74 former tissue cultures from 2-inch pots to 2 gallon pots. Tomorrow I have another 30 or so to finish.

Sixwing · 08-03-2009, 10:09 AM

Yesterday, I potted up my one and only banana for the third time in as many months. It is growing like a weed, and is getting hard to move around.
But it still hasn't developed any "high color"...
