Separating Six Banana Plant Pups at the Corm, Potting, Mulching, Fertilizing, and more!
Taking the time to dig so that you can see the corm really pays off. Some were difficult to get at because they were so close to other pups, so I show how to see the corm and what to look for before separating.
one of the pups corm was attached to another corm, by doing it this way I was able to save and get both pups out safely.
after I place into pots, I mulch, water then fertilize using compost tea made out of Comfrey Bocking 14 mixed in with Tithonia Diversifolia / Mexican Sunflower this mixture has been working well on all my permaculture plants, including my Banana plants which seem to be growing like they are on Steriods :-)
The tool I used is a Bully Tools Steel Tamping and Digging Bar

Your shirt looks like mine. Sweaty! I enjoy the gardening work that makes sweaty shirts

It has been fun watching someone else work, I do like your banana videos. Have been living in Vietnam for several years and have 4 types of banana plants. Not a big place, but does the job. Some plants are very tall so I made a pole with blade. Usually carry a shovel, hacking blade, small pruning saw and scissors when I go into the groves. Everything at my place becomes compost. Will place a few earthworms into a rotting stump to speed up the process. Worms works great unless the toads, centipedes or scorpions get to them first. Thanks again for letting me watch someone else do all the work.

This is a Brilliant and nicely detailed illustration, Thanks🌟👍

Thanks you very much.

@elsieestefania82 Год назад

Why not plant the pups directly into the ground instead of into pots?

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

sometimes I do, but mostly in pots till they root.

@aliciadishman Год назад

Best part of how to after showing the tools and what you were going to be doing starts at 29:34 where we can hear the cut best to 57:53 where you conclude the planting into pots and what you'll be doing as to water, mulch and compost tea. This was told 3 times and now I'll continue on toward what I hope is actuality of top dressing(s). Some of my comments/RU-vid won't let me come back and amend/edit or it does allow a small amendment. I didn't want to lose where the best cuts were and the special cut towards the end and where spoke of water and top-dressings would occur, the first time. Very detailed sir and I like your explanation(s). I watched three other splice/cutting videos before coming to this - lengthy - video and you're the best of four explanations. I mean no offense; it just was too many 'suckers/shoots'. I am detailed orientated myself and I did watch all of it because I feared missing something different amongst the six. I'm glad I did because numbers 5 and 6 really heard and saw what 1-4 were missing and the cut where you could not cut straight down against the 'mother' plant due to the smaller baby having come straight out from the mother and the larger shoot/baby came from the side of the shoot feeding the smaller of the two shoots. I find myself having to be detailed toward the moment and cutting I was glad to of somewhat patiently waited for, lol. So, now (that said 😉) I will continue to watch where I stopped upon the second time of water, mulch and tea...

Hi OldDragonLady, I try my best to show how I do things around my property on a ongoing basis. I try to video what I can when I can. my workload is huge so I only can video some of what I do as videoing slows me down. and I need to get my work load done. Glad to hear that some of my video help others. if there is anything that you are wanted to see, let me know and I will try to make a video for you. Thanks Sam

Would be interesting to see these bananas after they grown big

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

I have plenty of Banana plant video that shows some nice large racks. I fill my freezer with them and have Bananas all year long.

After you pot up the pups, do you bring the pots inside for winter? I am in Central Texas, and have to mulch up and winterize my bananas. I have some pups on my banana plants and we have been in a 2 month drought with temps 100+ since May. It’s been a challenge. Also, any that I have in really large pots should I place in the ground after this hot spell or leave in the 30 gallon pots and mulch up come November! I’m so excited 8b, Texas.

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 2 года назад

I do not have room inside so I just pile up chips around the pots and this seems to keep the corms from freezing.

@sunnycharacter 2 года назад

@@TheFrugalHugelGardener Great! I’m in central Texas so my 8b may not be quite as temperate as where you are in winter. I planted to put bubble wrap coats around the mother plants and mulch high, but wasn’t sure about potting up the pups this fall, or leave them in ground. I’ll watch the forecast for winter here then make a decision by the end of October.

@crude4u1948 10 месяцев назад

So, since I have all of my bananas in 15 gallon pots, and since we are about to head into "winter" here in Texas, and since all of my plants need to be trimmed, how can I use the cut-offs to fertilize my plants? I was wondering if I could use them to make "compost tea". Very helpful video.

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 10 месяцев назад

Hi I never made compost tea out of them, but you could chop and drop around other frees, plants etc.

@dross10001 2 месяца назад

What is the "chop and drop" you're referring to?

@jfrylove 11 месяцев назад

Great video. Thanks! I just received 3 pups that have been growing in their own pots and have planted them in the ground in SC. Some folks have said I should trim back to the stalk by cut and drop all leaves to promote root growth. It is September...any thoughts on when the best time to do this? They are about 3 feet tall with 5 or 6 leaves.

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 11 месяцев назад

Hi you are approaching the cooler months (winter) you should not promote growth now, wait till last frost. if it Buds before winter then you have a cold spell that bud, blossoms or bananas will go bad. you want the plant to Banana plant after your last frost. and ripen before next winter.

@jfrylove 11 месяцев назад

Thanks. So no trimming then? Or shall I trim down? I think likelihood of budding is pretty low...they are only 3 feet tall.@@TheFrugalHugelGardener

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 11 месяцев назад

I would wait till spring them you could trim.

@annchee1329 Год назад

Are you planning to transplant the "baby" banana plants into the ground?

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

I did

@dawnwhiting6004 10 месяцев назад

What could you use to plant the banana plants in instead of horse manure

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 10 месяцев назад

most people use Black Kow available in the stores. or just good top soil mixed with sand for drainage. .

@janiceforrest3505 Год назад

What does your compost tea consist of ?Im in southern Missouri and my banana tree is about 2 to 3 years old I think. It is a hardy variety and is growing very well near the corner of front porch, in a south east corner , away from north winds. It has about 4 to 5 pups, separated 2 pups to give to friends. The trunk is getting pretty big in circumference and has many big beautiful leaves. I don’t really claim to have a green thumb but I’m very proud of it. I have never fertilized it. Will it ever get blooms and then bananas ?

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

Hi I make my compost tea out of Tithonia Diversifolia which is a variety of Mexican Sunflower) search for my compost tea videos. on my channel. Thanks

@kylekoenig4730 Год назад

Did you get around to chopping up a corm to propagate a plant?

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

Hi Kyle, Yes check out my Blue Java video's, those plants are now ten feet tall.

@topgunfm9755 Год назад

What are the heck is”chop and drop?”

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

lol, just that, you chop the plant and drop it in place so that it breaks down into the soil to add nutrients back into the earth.

@denisestarr2314 Год назад

Do you watch for alligators too ?

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

there are none in my pone, but yes when on water ways.

@putiwang7679 Год назад

Where did you buy that special tool, the one like a hook. I failed all the time. I think it is because i just guess, can't really see where to cut it. This video is in detail how to do it. Thanks. 🌹

@TheFrugalHugelGardener 11 месяцев назад

Hi I just put a link in the video description for you.

@chaovang6855 Год назад

By separating a banana sucker it takes your whole day of work instead for a real farmer for 2 minutes.

@TheFrugalHugelGardener Год назад

when making a video I like to show people the proper way of doing it so that they get the full corm and all the roots. note: I also just use a shovel but that does not always get the full corm and all the roots and could also damage the parent plants corm and leave it open for rot. Thanks for your input.
