Default Re: What did you plant today (bananas)?



I planted up these SDCs because they were still in the ground and it'll get too cold for them soon. They have been subjected to one 34F frost (they were covered with sheets) and a few other upper 30 and 40F temps. Took them all just fine. The 2 in the one container were actually pups of the biggest one. I wasn't on top of the bananas this summer and i let the pups stay attached too long, but oh well. Next summer they'll get divided. I'm going to put in a huge banana patch next summer and i'll have at least 20 corms to start with! Its going to be a jungle or so i hope. Another thing was that this summer had very few 90F+ days...highest was 94F. Also was VERY dry in July/Aug/Sept...
