Banana Seed Germination Forum As one of the toughest seeds in the plant kingdom to figure out the keys to germination success with, this is a forum with banana seed germination tips. Please entitle posts like "Musa balbisiana," or "Musa cheesmani," etc. People would then post a reply under that heading, sharing their germination successes (and failures), what materials and methods they used, germination percentage, etc. |

![]() I didn't realise monkey fingers had seeds, or maybe it's Latin name is more familar, anyway I digress.
On the whole a dormant banana seed needs fluctuating temperatures or so all the literature says, but you may get away with constant temeprature it just may take a little longer. But, you have had success so ![]() |
