The #1 thing new Musa growers do is over water! I know I did! A lot of those short cycle AA types are very sensitive to overwatering! Like VC and Especially Patupi!
Start easy! Then move up! And learn! Learn! Learn!

Really? I didn't know that. How can you tell if you've been overwatering? My VC and Patupi have been somewhat disappointing so far. Also it seems that my tall bananas don't grow fast enough. By the time they are getting big enough that they should fruit soon, winter hits.
