Re: Best naner soil?
In my opinion soil that is loose and highly organic is best. In most cases top soil amended with composted cow manure works well..bananas prefer an acid soil but if the pH is below 5.0 lime should be applied the second year. Low pH makes bananas more susceptible to Panama disease. I'd also agree with Bob on using a sterile potting mix for something containerized for indoor cultivation.
