![]() I've been wondering why that why is it that noone answers the type of soil the banana uses. Is it not that important? Oh, how I just wonder. I am really puzzled with the good people here in this forum why noone bothers to let us know newbies your secrets.

![]() Thanks! I guess I did not read deep enough. It was answered in my own thread.
To tell you the truth like you said I maybe looking for the 'perfect' soil for bananas when it is right in front of my eyes. Sorry.

![]() Thanks Banana Fun. It sure looks like it is the same mix with my citrus soil so I don't need to get another soil mix for my bananas.
