[i]Thanks a bunch Erik, I will definitely be keeping an eye out for any & all hurricanes! It seems we are potentially in the path to be hit by joaquin, so I will have to batten down the hatches & be ready to pull in the banana plants and the fig trees for sure! It seems like fall has really set in this week, night time temps in the low 40's already.. Yuck..

Im glad to hear that it's normal for banana plants to look sad right after they are separated. I was really worried that they were about to die with the yellowing leaves & all. So I do have another quick question for you, hopefully you can clear this up for me.. Were the two pups suppose to have their own corm? At least the beginnings of one even? Because they did not have anything besides roots.. They both had quite a few of their own roots at that. Ohhh, almost forgot.. I also just found spotted snake milipedes in the brand new soil I just transferred them into! How the heck they got in there so fast I don't know.. Have you or anyone else delt with these suckers before? I hit them with some insecticidal soap & most of them kicked the bucket but some just curled up into a ball for a min & went about their business.. I may have to get one of my sons to smoosh them for me next lol, unless someone has a better idea?
