It gets pretty quiet here in the summer everyone is outside enjoying the good weather.

Bananas love to be well watered and fed I have slow release on them when I see it start to fade I put more on it seems fine with what I do.

Never. Plant them & remove the pups as they pop up.

Looks.great and you dont fertilize?

pitotes · Post by **pitotes** » Mon Jul 28, 2014 7:31 pm

I have a blood red.banana and the leaves keep coming out like if.they were rotting.....is it too.much water or not enough

sidpook · Post by **sidpook** » Tue Jul 29, 2014 4:48 am

I do use the pond water that has a lot of scum, algae, bug larvae, fish excrement etc...and I water a lot. Also these have been in the ground for five years now. They take a few years to really ramp up. Take a picture of yours and post it maybe I can see what you mean about the leaf/rot problem????
