Danelady.... HI
Corms are easy to start......It is keeping them going is the hard part.

A very good start are some of the very informative Youtube videos.
Keywords.... banana growing /potting/splitting

These how to videos are petty accurate and are easy to understand and to implement.
The videos offer so much more information that can be shared in a few posts.

Just pick and choose what fits your budget and what is easy to do.

Me .....I just plant the corm in a soilless mix let the plant sort itself out...hopefully soon.

Go ahead...plop it in there......In a container/pot and your plant should sort itself out in no time in your hothouse.
