Re: Banana Circles
Thanks for input.... Been a few days to respond as this site is now down more than its up. Thanks for the links HMelendez. I did a search or two and little showed up, until I tried it again today and a few did pop up. Go figure.
A key reason I'm doing this as it seemed a good way to create compost (and bananas help hide it from sight). Everything grows so fast down here that I can't bring myself to keep putting our yard waste on the curb for pickup. and I'm tired of buying bags of compost. We have such sandy soil that needs some help! I'm hoping this might be a little easier to help maintain my banana mats and to experiment with nitrogen fixing ground covers. It not too pretty to mulch with banana leaves but I want to use them.
Not overdoing it, have a raji puri, Goldfinger, and Blue Java outside the ring / berm, easy access from one end. Funny you recommended the downspout zfallon84, I used one and directed some of the rainwater into it.
will see how it all works out... Thanks!
