Re: Musa Basjoo Help please

That is an Old wives tale, if the heat is hot enough for water to scall the plant; then the direct sunlight is hot enough to burn the plant too. .... So if a plant needs water, then it NEEDS...

Re: Musa Basjoo Help please

Ken
Is you plant in the ground or in a pot?

Pots heat up pretty quick and could cause some cascading issues.

Re: Ok now I’m worried...

Nothing wrong. It is all due to rapid growth. The new growth pushes so fast it doesn’t completely harden off and gets sunburn. The new leaf is usually a lighter color and flimsy. They often get...

Re: Musa Basjoo Help please

Nothing wrong. The brown mark is due to rapid growth. The new growth pushes so fast it doesn’t completely harden off and gets sunburn. Totally normally. Plant looks great!

Re: Musa Bordelon Help

It's heat. Some shading from the hot afternoon sun and misting the plants will help some. You said the Basjoe is doing OK, is it getting some shade?

Re: Musa Basjoo Help please

Just an observation.

The plant at that size and growth habit,color,leaf shape does not appear to be a basjoo.
But it could be a look I have never seen before with my plants.

Could be either or both or even an insect.

These plants will exhibit all kinds of looks when overwatered or over fertilized.

Your plant is a beast and should grow through it.
