Re: Water Soluble Banana Fuel Dosages

Hi Richard,
I'm using your 28-8-18 fertilizer on ornamentals (musa basjoo). Do you have any thoughts on using a garden hose bottle sprayer such as this (Amazon.com : Gilmour 362 Professional No...

Re: Lowes Ice Cream banana?

This is off topic, but since I just found out I now have three Dwarf Cavendish and not three Ice Creams (thanks, Lowe's), I am wondering if I should move the one that gets full sun all day to a...

Thanks venturabananas!

Re: Lowes Ice Cream banana?

Here are some pics of my "ice creams". Looking at them closer, I think I got the same variety as nph, which makes sense considering we are in the same...

Re: Water Soluble Banana Fuel Dosages

Re: Water Soluble Banana Fuel Dosages

Richard,
I received my banana fuel yesterday. I have some questions about the application rates/plant sizes. For us newbies, can you clarify some physical characteristics to look for to judge what...

Re: Lowes Ice Cream banana?

I bought 3 of the Lowe's "Ice Cream" bananas. At least I got them 50% off! I do recall they have some blotches on the pstem, but the leaves are all green. I'll post some pictures, I would appreciate...

Re: My New Babies!

Ah, the photo is deceptive, there is actually about 2 feet between the fence and the plants closest to it. Also the fence will be moved another 1.5ft away when the fence gets rebuilt this winter.

Re: My New Babies!

Hi Barney,

Re: My New Babies!

Re: My New Babies!

My New Babies!

Hello all!

I've been lurking here for a few weeks, learning what I could before starting to plant my first bananas.
