Fish Emulsion,manure and fertilizer?
Comments (4)Hi, I was wonder about hurting the roots if I were to work the manure into the ground. I will just water through it. My plant is now about 3 1/2 feet tall and like above the plant is getting another new leaf( the last one was 2 weeks or so ago)but no real noticeable change in height? So when you say "You can use any and all fertilizers" does that mean I can mix and match at the same time or rotate every week? Say this week I use Fish Emulsion and 16-16-16 along with some miracle grow...? Or use only one(rotating) every week? I'm not sure how often to feed it with fertilizer,fish emulsion,etc...? Today I mixed 2 tablespoons of Fish Emulsion to 1 gallon of water and poured around the plant.Is that an ok amount to mix and give the plant? I wont bother with foliar feeding and I will add the manure as you mention. The only thing is I don't have any compost to add to it. I will also step up the amount of water I am giving it...and trim off the brown/yellow leafs close to the stalk? I am just worried that I am going to burn the banana by using to much fertilizer. Thank you for all of your help pitangadiego I very much appreciate it and your patience with my questions. Thank you...See Moremusa 'pisang ceylon'
Comments (4)I had a Pisang Ceylon at my previous home that I planted in May of 2004. I went back to visit recently and it's still there and looking good. It's grown from 3-4' up to 7-8' but there are no flowers or pups. Will it flower and fruit in my area? If it has some pups I'll take a few for my new place....See MoreOverwintering bananas in the ground
