Hiya Re: First Time Banana Grower ... need some advice

Agree--prop it up under the peduncle as shown in the previous post. You could temporarily prop the pseudostem if it seems in iminent danger of falling over but this is not a good long term solution. I use crossed wooden braces made from 10' 3X2 wood purchased at the local home depot. You can drill out several holes to get the configuration you want, but don't forget to use a locking nut as otherwise they tend to back off and get lost over time.....

Good luck!
