Default Re: Time to put the bananas to sleep for the Winter

We have had an unbeliveable October so far, with themperatures around 20 ° Celsius and the nights never below 10° C.
And so the Bananas still keep growing on and on!

The worst thing about growing bananas here is, that we have for 11 month south-west(spain) winds except the important month of may when the soil should start to warm up we get the wind from the north-east(russia).
Thats why our last possible frostdate is in the midle of may, sometimes even later.
On the 3. of june this year it was 0° (32° Fahrenheit)!
