Default Re: DO and DB Container Planting

Well Patty and Jack you are both correct. I started out with them in the house, but have since acquired a small pop-up greenhouse that the bananas now reside in. I have a heater on a thermostat in there and today the temps ran from 48 to 88 deg. The outside temps were a low of 27 and high of 50. My dilemma now is: do I provide water as if the plants were growing or do I treat them as if they were dormant? From Patty's post it sounds like I should go with dormant treatment with very little water.

Thanks for the inputs,
Richard
