Default Re: I definitely need some Banana plant advice.

Thanks TJ.
My bananas generally go in the same place every year, sometimes I move them into different spots but for the most part they are in the same spot in the yard every year (but the soil is always changing in my yard since I'm always adding fresh soil.
Usually I just use Miracle gro fertilizer. I used to use Fish Emultion but I wasn't noticing any benefits from it and it is a lot harder to apply and more expensive so since the plants weren't responding after a whole season of using it, I gave up on that.
Do you (or anyone) have some effective fertilizers?

They definitely see their share of warm weather. Some of my bananas are in a little more shade and some are in burning hot all day sun during the summer, but they all see pretty hot and humid weather and I make sure they get a lot of water too when it's hot out (and as little as possible during the cooler weather in spring).
