Default Re: HELP! What did I do?

It's just Florida sand. I added a whole 50 lb bag of black kow when planting back in March, but sand otherwise. Everything else is top dressing.
I put a grass clipping mulch around one but not the other as an experiment, and because of that, everything else has been identical on both, and both have the leaf markings. Consequently, the mulched one has been stayine about 3/4 of a leaf ahead since mulching. They were identical in growth.

Varieties I supposedly bought: Manzano, Cavendish, Blue Java, Sweetheart, and Gros Michel.
What it seems I actually have: Brazilian, Cavendish, Namwah, Dwarf Red, Gros Michel, Pisang Ceylon, Veinte Cohol and SH 3640, and American Goldfinger. FHIA 1, Paggi and FHIA 17... Always room for one more.
