Default Re: Fruit not setting

They are both definitely underfed (fertilizer) and maybe underwatered. The Misi Luki should have 10-12 hands of nanners, easily. Both are showing signs of struggling in the nutrition department, hence their poor output. Limited inputs leads to limited outputs (bananas).

Restricted root zone (space) or limited watering close to the stalk can reduce root growth and reduce uptake of water and nutrients.

The good news is that future stalks can receive better care and will grow bigger and healthier and will perform better. That is the nice thing about bananas. You can live for another day.
