Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
For the last 3-4 years I have been working on the development of a water-soluble fertilizer and a 100% organic fertilizer for fruiting plants -- including bananas. I have now completed work on both.
Through various conversations on this site, I believe that most people on Bananas.org understand that what you put in your soil is important, and the quantities of those ingredients is equally important. It is somewhat akin to the situation of making sourdough bread from scratch. If you are satisfied with the results you are achieving with your current program then I see absolutely no reason to change what you are doing! If however you would like to try something different, here are the two products I personally developed which are now produced by a major US manufacturer: Grow More Organic Fruit Fuel Grow More Water-Soluble Fruit Fuel |
Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
Wow.
I am thinking on trying both fertilizers side by side on the two "Temple Bananas" i got from you. Should be interesting. Thanks for all your hard work, time and money you have put into these products. |
Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
I'm going to give it a go too. My banana needs help and my lemons.

Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
Richard, I just received my 25lb bag of Fruit Fuel. I didn't realize it ships from Oceanside. Could I have just picked it up to save on shipping? Too late now anyway. I'm getting somewhat conflicting information from the website vs the instructions on the bag for dosage. For container grown bananas, would you recommend application once a weak or once per month, and how much per gallon / per plant. Thanks.

Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
Richard I'm very interested in purchasing your product just wondering whether I should go with the Organic or water soluble. I'm fairly new to bananas still. I'm growing Dwarf Brazilian and Manzano and have yet to have either produce. I live in Ventura so the weather is fairly mild and I have very poor sandy soil which I've been bolstering with my own compost. Thanks much for your time, can't wait to try out Fruit Fuel!

Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
How often do you fertilze with fruit fuel? Is it a once a week with watering or just a few times a year?

Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
For a Newb..as myself..this fertilizing can be pretty confusing. Im afraid to add too much and cause damage...or not enough and not experience any benefit.

Re: Fruit Fuel Fertilizers
I've been using a tablespoon per gallon on my mature plants. Just a word of caution, I had a few beers one day on feed day. Any juvenile plants that got a full dose had problems. Cut your dose back to 1/2 or 1/3 and it works fine.
For my tc's I throw 1 tablespoon to a 5 gallon bucket only after the tc gets going and starts to take off |
