Default Re: Any opinions or advice on my 2 banana plants since i’m Planting them in the groun

Good luck with growing naners inground in Tenn. When I lived in Charlotte, NC I had some luck most years. I would dig up the biggest pup and pot grow it in the house under grow lites in winter. When frost was over it went in the ground. Use lots of top dress manure and a high potassium fertilizer. Here in S Fla I can get 6-3-16 from Diamond R. It's called the "super fruiter" which bananas looooooove!!! Naners need high potassium.
