Re: Am I killing my first bananas?
When it comes to new plants like this, I like to pot them up and leave them in a mostly shady area with light amounts of water to let them acclimate. You can never go wrong starting slow with them.

Yep dwarf cavendish. Yeah I’m really excited to see how they do compared to some of the sword suckers I’ll inevitably remove. I’ll have to give one to my mom or a nearby friend so I can keep an eye...
