Ooops - Organic over fertilization
I know we have talked about this before, but just a reminder it is possible to over fertilize with organics. This one had a top dressing of composted chicken manure (under the bark) and I also drenched it with dilute (I thought) fish emulsion.....twice:-0
Don't do that!!

Re: Ooops - Organic over fertilization
Thanks for that tip. Bananas grow so fast I thought they could have taken that.

Re: Ooops - Organic over fertilization
Yeah, I wasn't really thinking about the possibility. About a week after I planted it (no root disruption) I noticed it wasn't doing much so gave it some fish and it responded almost right away. I was encouraged by that so, I don't know, a week later give or take I gave it some more and that's when it started showing the above signs. It's growing quickly so should figure itself out in the next week or two.
