(Greenhouse) Ideal growing conditions?
Hello, I need some suggestions on what would be the best growing conditions for greenhouse banana plants: all musa dwarf varieties.
All the plants are 2'-4' tall and 1-3 months old in 5 gallon containers. I have been keeping the night temps @ 62/F and the day temps @90/F with humidity @ 50% all the time. I keep soil @ 75% moisture. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated, Thanks |

Re: (Greenhouse) Ideal growing conditions?
sounds good to me, and if they are growing well thats the most important sign that you are doing things right. how much height do you have though? "dwarf" is a relative term and they still get pretty huge sometimes.

Re: (Greenhouse) Ideal growing conditions?
Thanks for the reply, they're between 2 and 4 ft. tall...... I had some plants last year get out of control (growing so tall) so....I've moved them to a smaller container. The roof can't get any taller, so hopefully the plants will stay shorter in the smaller pots.
