That must be why so many Nigerians are trying to give millions of dollars
away, they are so rich from banana farming. LOL

Smile Re: Come To Nigeria For Banana Riches

Given the current economic conditions in my land my exchange rate is in Nato 7.62 or 5.56, do you prefer the higher denomination or the smaller yet versatile 5.56.
7.62 are for long range goals while 5.56 are better suited for plants spaced closer together and a shorter harvest.

I find 5.56 a great short cycle plant, while others arguably prefer 7.62 with proper fertilization.

However, 300 blackout for me is preferred at close spacing in the field....... I am open to your suggestions .

Some fellas prefer Musa Fhia .308 in drier climates ......but I have a hard time following the trail.
And I am short on Hectares.
Are you growing Musa Lapua.....the taste of this banana will knock your sandals off.
I want to get rich......

The sand doesn't have to be clean. You'll get better drainage if not.

Hahaha .... give Musa 410ga S.L.U.G. a try. It will take the foot off with the sandals. Clean sand or dirty sand, makes no difference.

I disagree....if you used a 1/2 cup phosphate and 65 ppm of bs with 10-10-10- with added minors and a cup of chicken stuff every two weeks whether it rains or not ... then the Musa fhia 410 slug could
give adequate growth ..

HMMM.... On the other hand....if I cut the phosphate to a 1/4 cup and added 7 grow months at 30 days each divided by a 1/4 pound a week for six weeks and added minors each day for 5.65 days will that make a significant difference.

Will it even make a difference?

But if I took 1.3311 cups of slug and divided it by 410 I would be at a more effective rate of 308 of sandal popping power.

Please note.... Ambient temperature is 68.7 degrees.

If you really want to make a difference .... Then fertilize with 75-15-10 lbs of potassium nitrate (fine powder)-carbon wood ash -wettable sulfur and Dry mix thoroughly. Store in a sealed container. When needed heat gently with a match. ... For smaller applications, apply at rate of 2 lb per plant hole.

Actually from the emails I've receive in the past couple of years, over half my distant relatives have died leaving me as their sole heir. I'm due to inherit more than $100 million in Nigeria. ... Why the hell would I want a banana farm?

In Africa I would think it best to grow the FN-FAL banana...it's a Belgian hybrid.

I'm off to western union right now. Oh wait, I need to know how much money to send you, and where to send it. We should grow the CJ Banana, it can grow
up to 4 bunches of bananas per plant and only takes 6 months to mature.
I love the Con Job Banana. Hurry, Quick, Let me know where to send my money to get rich. I know all the Modalities will be in place.
Can we reserve a spot in the plantation to bury the millions of dollars other Nigerians want to give to me?

Try ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel let soak in the dark for 2 hours. Check with a candle to make sure it's ready!

BUT, the diesel fuel will harm banana plants and make the aluminum nitrate un-usable for. fertilizer.
