Hello folks,

Does anyone have any experience with self-watered pots for banana trees? Pros? Cons? That is very new to me for my garden experience.

Thanks!
Tim

They would be fine for an up and growing banana but I would not use them to plant a new corm as it could cause it to rot. You want to allow the soil to dry out a bit between watering until your banana has at least 3-4 leaves.

Make your words soft and sweet; you just may have to eat them someday.
