Google Shopping is one approach.

We know from biological studies that fruiting Musa have the capacity for 1 net pound of Nitrogen and 1.5 net pounds of Potash per year, and the necessity for a wide range of minor- and micro-nutrients.
Fish Emulsion plus Sul-Po-Mag is one way to achieve the 2:3 ratio with natural ingredients. Both are widely available -- probably at a nursery in your area. For Fish Emulsion products that are 5% Nitrogen (e.g., 5-1-1) use 3/4 cup Sul-Po-Mag for every 3 cups Fish Emulsion. Consider this dosage a maximum per plant per month for non-juvenile plants (base diameter greater than 1 inch).
If you want to be "organic", then that is a whole other discussion:
Organic.
