Default Fruit Fuel 16-8-24 2018 UPDATE
Not that I am planning on switching over to the fertilizer business, but I love the product developed by our now retired bananas.org member Richard so much that I have put in a new production order and an entire pallet arrived yesterday. The formula is still the same, but new in 2018 is the addition of an anti-caking component to enhance the product and to make it even easier to dissolve in water.
I am continuing to offer it to bananas.org members for $15 per #5 bag plus the actual cost of USPS flat rate shipping.
USPS flat rate shipping prices:
One bag will fit in a padded USPS flat rate envelope which is $7.25, two bags (maximum 3 bags with my ingenuity) will fit in a medium size USPS flat rate shipping box for $13.65). PayPal or Apple Pay required.
Mai 2021 Updated USPS shipping costs: One bag will fit in a padded USPS flat rate envelope which is $8, two bags (maximum 3 bags with my ingenuity) will fit in a medium size USPS flat rate shipping box for $15.50 PayPal or Apple Pay required.

Thank you, got your PM and responded already. Yes, happy bananas, but I also use it on many other fruit and veggie plants in my yard with amazing results: apple trees, peach tree, apricot tree, all my Pineapple plants (10 fruiting right now), my Passion Fruit vine, Dragon Fruit, figs, strawberry plants, tomato plants, bell peppers and many more happy plants.

Thank you AxelPR. Made about 17 phone calls today on your behalf.
I can mail you some fertilizer, but you would have to obtain an import permit for it first from the "Puerto Rico Department of Agriculture".

Is this the same fertilizer sold on Amazon? https://www.amazon.com/Banana-Fertil...JYBW7DXXQKZBSZ

It is water soluble. And it is exactly the same you are referring to.

Hi, are you still selling these? Would a 5 pound bag last a while if I'm growing one or three dwarf bananas in containers, and maybe giving a little to other potted plants occasionally?

Yes. I still share my personal order with other bananas.org members.
For potted plants I would recommend a tablespoon per gallon of water once per month, so one bag should last you until you plant your banana plant into the ground.
Send me a PM for further details.

Default Grow More Fruit Fuel 16-8-24 need help
Could someone please tell me how to use this on my bananas. I'm in north Central Florida and have 4 plants in the ground and 4 plants growing in large tubs. I bought it to alternate a foliar spray with my Lesco 13-3-13 and Muriate of potash which I calculated monthly amounts by using this website's formula. The product I have says 16-8-24. I am very confused about what percentage dilution I should use on my bananas.

Last year was my first year with bananas and I did fine but really didn't know what I was doing.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
