We recently moved, and I put 7 bananas in the ground this last summer. some were transplants (8 - 15 footers) and some were 1 year old container plants. I wanted to protect them from winter this year. Looking for advice because ive never protected them before. Ive found that winter damage stunts the new spring growth and my Blue Java took over 2 years to pull out of a stunted growth period.
Do I chop the p-stem down to knee high ? or just cut the leaves off ?
what to mulch with ?
Do I fill in the watering moat with dirt before mulching ?
I was also thinking about the foam box thing on the smaller plants
