Banana Plant Care Essentials

Plant bananas in full sun and in fertile, well-draining soil to encourage healthy growth and fruit production. Provide regular deep watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 2-3 months to provide essential nutrients for banana plants. Prune away dead or damaged leaves to improve air circulation and prevent pest infestations. Harvest bananas when the fruits are fully developed and begin to slightly change color.
