yellowing leaves Mar 6, 2005 12:37 AM

my concern is that I keep mine inside so the temp is pretty constant (70 f). they are all very active right now. i guess the warmth and the grow lights (I live outside of Seattle so we really need the grow lights) are making them happy. One in particular has 4 new suckers in the past month. I am planning on taking them out soon and potting them. I am not sure if the yellowing of leaves is still normal in spite of the warmth. I am pretty attached to them and I really worry about doing something to mess them up. Can you tell I am new to bananas????  I also wonder about how scrawney they are. I read in another chat that they like tomato fertalizer so I ran out and got some. is that the best way to fatten them up?Patty

I also am having problems with yellowing leaves. they are yellowing just around the edges and then getting brown and crispy. I took a leaf into a buddy of mine who is a banana grower and he suggested that it was spider mites (we did find evidence of them). I was told that mites are a problem with bananas. I have begun spraying them with insecticidal soap weekley. After reading this exchange I have placed a humidifier near my trees (I grow them inside for now). Am I doing the right things? Patty |
