I've been out of banana growing for the last few years due to health reasons and now i'm gettin back to business! Used to have about 8 different types of musas in my yard while living in S. Texas and they were beautiful. Now I live in an Apt. in N.C. and am trying to get a head start by growing indoors. Just purchased a Gran Nain & Dwarf Jam. Red a couple weeks ago & they aren't doing so hot. leaves are turning yellow, then brown & no growth. I've decided to assemble a rack for my babies with plant grow lights in hopes the will improve. I must get this under control quickly as I have 9 more diff babies coming in in the next cpl weeks. when i receive the bananas they are about 5-7", i re pot them in larger pots w/ miracle grow potting mix & water every other day, and place on racks next to large windows. i'm also thinking of placing a humidifier w/ em! lol
