Re: Banana Corm Vs Banana Stem
From my experience if you dig it up without a single root on it then it's going to die - no corm.
Some suckers angle away from the corm under the ground so they can be inadvertently cut without any corm on it.
What I do now is dig into the soil with my hands to find exactly where it's attached so I can cut it off correctly - no guessing.
