Indoor Banana Wintering
hey guys, i have a 10-13 foot nana plant (i believe musa basjoo) in a pot on my patio that shot up this summer and is lookin real great. unfortunately the ceilings in my house are too low for it now so i have to put it in the garage. basically no natural light enters the garage, but the temp stays around 45-55 even in the middle of the winter. i figured i would simply set up a couple plant lights on a timer over head to keep them goin all year, and help keep em warm.
also, i still have the plant outside to soak up as much sun as possible before winter, but its starting to get colder at night (i live on Long island NY, i believe zone 7). when should i bring it in for winter, (what temperature could it comfortably withstand without hibernating itself).
thanks guys! ill try and post some pictures asap!
