Re: Watering
The long answer is to match the water use by the plant with the amount of water applied. When heat goes up and/or humidity goes down, there is a need for greater moisture. When the humidity rises and/or the temperature decreases, the need for moisture decreases. When it is cool, too little moisture and the roots dry and die; too much moisture and they rot. When bananas are dormant, i.e. growing very slowly due to cool temps,there isn't much need for moisture, or fertilizer. When very actively growing, they use lareg quantities of both.
