Re: Basjoo - thin and curled leaf just folded

Since some people were asking about the pots I thought I'd post a pic of the bottom of them as well as how the root system responds to the shape and air-pruning holes on the side

This is one of my...

Re: Basjoo - thin and curled leaf just folded

Trying to upload photos but the limitations on the site make it tricky to do from my phone.

Alright, cooking with gas. This is in a tent with a 1000w bulb, so the temps around it are generally high...

Basjoo - thin and curled leaf just folded

Re: Proper care when first getting a TC plant from grower?

I look for Ace to be helpful, at an elevated price, but certainly not the place to go to buy a variety of banana plants :). And I certainly wouldn't expect the employees to know hoa to ID them

Re: Proper care when first getting a TC plant from grower?

I'd follow sputinc7's advice and just erect some form of a sun block. Hell, even some cheese cloth on stakes would probably do the trick. Basically you just want them to focus on root growth for a...

Re: Proper care when first getting a TC plant from grower?
