Default Re: First winter with new greenhouse and banana question

Dude, can I just say what an awesome greenhouse! Who puts the wood on the stove when you're in bed? Just interested.

Anyway about the pups. You have to remember this is winter, growth will be painfully slow, lights are no good if the pup has no leaves, it will be relying on corm reserves. When you chop a pup it will grow roots first then grow a leaf, the pups that are pupping themselves probably means the pup itself has died for some reason, over watering, fungus, who knows?

Be patient, bottom heat will speed up the root growth, remember roots first, then leaves. Don't worry.
