Yeah I'm still planting stuff
In November in N.C.
Thanks Larry SDDarkman619 ! ! ! WormFarmer Got Me the PH Pollinated by me with a electric toothbrush I did throw in a cup of Potassium Magnesium Sulfate so they take off next year. I left out my MooNure I used for the others to prevent rot in the cold. Last edited by jbyrd88888 : 11-09-2013 at 06:38 PM. Reason: typo |

Re: Yeah I'm still planting stuff
-I only used about half the grow bags with the VC to keep them lower(closer to the heat mat.)
-Replanted the PH and the roots/corm looked good! -Since Oct. I have only watered a couple times a week and no more fertilizer till next year.... |

Re: Yeah I'm still planting stuff
Sounds like you had a good there! It's always nice to pot new TC bananas!!!
Better keep it in pretty sanitary and warm conditions,probably under bright lights in a very warm room/container as a TC can rot real easy in Fall weather... Happy growing!

Re: Yeah I'm still planting stuff
I like your idea of hand pollinating with an electric toothbrush!

Re: Yeah I'm still planting stuff
Good luck with your nanners!
I'm from Hickory, to your west. I am kind of curious about your plans to get your banana plants through the winter in the future. That's a lot of banana mats and a lot of digging up plants if you are going to go that route for the winter. This is my first year experimenting with in-ground bananas. For the winter, I have placed wire cages around them, filled the cages with straw, and covered them with plastic. We have hit 29 degrees a few times this winter. I checked on my plants, and they are still alive. I wonder how they will do when we get 24-72 hour periods of below freezing temperatures.
