Re: Dwarf Cavendish and Not Dwarf Cavendish

Your pics may be too large. I think 2 MP is the size they need to be.

Re: Flowering stopped. Need help/insight.

Re: Needing info from the experts here

The site has had problems lately, your pics also need to be 2MB or smaller to load to your gallery. Sounds like the plant is flowering.

Re: 2023 USDA hardiness zones

The same for me, they put me on the edge of 6a. Then when it gets -20F to -30F in the winter I wonder if I'm even in zone 5.

Re: Help!

Are you getting the plants wet? If watering at night or evening water the base only. If you water in the morning wet the whole plant, it will have time to dry. Is the ground too wet? Clay doesn't dry...

Re: What is the *smallest* container you've ever gotten a banana to fruit in?

A 55 gal plastic barrel cut in half may work. I see them for $10 or $15.
Sorry like a pervious thread, I didn't read all of the post.

Re: Donetta

I would take it out of the pot, that makes it easier to separate. Take the pups off and give them all a larger pot. Orinoco? Could be but too early to tell, many look like that in this stage of...

Re: squirrels vs. bananas = devastation

Goggle Plantskyyd, it's the repellent that I use. It has kept the deer and other critters away from our plants. The cat helps also.

Give it time and maybe less water and it will be fine. If you want to push it use a heat mat to warm your soil.
