Re: banana growing in water
First you have to get it use to setting in water. I started buy putting the pot in a saucer of water. That was in May Last year. Then over the summer I slowly raised the water by putting the pot in a bucket and bringing the water slowly up over the top of the pot over the summer. I have used pond tabs to fertilize because it is setting in a pond. I cannot use something that will make green algae in the pond so pond tablets you push into the dirt. The one I bought was dwarf cavendish. This one I think is the same kind. This year I have done this to some big bananas and some musa basjoo. Good luck on trying to grow your water banana. Also the banana was only one banana last year and you can see it is healthy and growing pups.
