i have some commercial ones, but they are a bit pricey. i do appreciate their research and development and highly recommend them. the kitty litter knockoff was an act of desperation when i needed a planter and had a growing pile of kitty litter pails!
going out to cut off leaves now. thanks.

I'm not sure that you want water to "wick up" into banana roots. From what I understand, it takes much more energy from the plant to suck up water from below. I believe bananas prefer to have water "run down over" the roots and then drain out. But, good luck.
