Lol..I just thought that when he stayed. I'm going to get another tissue sample jus for giggles...I probably woke up the whole house with my rooting laughter...
Please people... Don't do what I did and strip the leaves off like your shucking a corn cob. Cut it like Lead did! If you peel the leaves all the way down the trunk... You will end up with a pencil trunk!
rose5150 🤣😂🤣exactly leave the ugly leaves on the tree. They serve a good purpose. They help collect moisture and help protect the fragile trunk and leaves that are going to spin out the top.
I sure do wish i had of known this weeks ago...smh my trunk was getting thick now its the size of a maker.....the old leaf debris is forming a bulb at the bottom , mine is in a pot i think im going to try to cut off all that dead leaf matter at the bottom to save it from strangling my poor banana
I enjoyed this video! I'm about to put my pineapple head in some soil in a few more days! I had this pineapple head sitting in a jar of water for about month!I have about five roots that sprouted already! This will be my first fruit plant!! I'm looking forward to my first pineapple! Thanks for sharing your video with us!! God BLESS ❤🙏👍
Hi Lead73, I'm so glad I have run across your channel. I'm not a professional Gardner but you have certainly inspired me to start a Patio garden. I will look for a Dwarfed Banana Tree at Walmart or Lowe's asap. Thanks for the knowledge you share. Buying seeds or a tree is one thing but knowing what to do from start to finish is so necessary. I'm a new subscriber. I was given a sweet potato plant last summer and found a sweet potato buried in the soil a week ago. I didn't realize or know the little plant was going to bare sweet potato. The past few weeks have gained some knowledge from your videos. Thanks and have a great day.
Thank you for all of this information. You are so right about homegrown fruit tasting better. We have grown pineapples here and they taste amazing! So different from the ones in the stores.
I recently got a banana plant from my sister - the whole plant root and all - planted it out and with your method I can now produce some new trees. Thanks for the advice. I will be looking at your other video after this one.
Glad I found you! I’m in Guam and a couple of my neighbors gave me six pups. They are three different varieties! Two gran main, two ice cream and two no name! That was a month ago and all are looking good, Now I’m digging through the internet for information about growing and feeding them! You are the encyclopedia for bananas! We have a year around growing season here in Guam broken up by rainy and dry seasons. Can’t wait to start using the knowledge you have given me!
I just purchased a Banana plant and it's coming today so I started researching (after the fact!) and I just double checked and I got a "Tall Mother Bulb". Hallelujah 🙏🏾 with shipping it was a little pricey. Dwarf Cavendish ♥️ and I also just dumped my rabbit's litter box in the hole I dug for the tree 🤗 I'm glad you touched on fertilizer. And rabbit can be used "cold" meaning it doesn't have to compost. Great video!
Love your show & great info. Heard about you this morning from Homestead Heart-love that gal, very talented & knowledgeable & very hard worker. That you folks!
Haha - "I'm only gonna be on here for a minute." Sounds like me trying to tell a brief story 41.05 mins later. Love it! My struggle too. Thanks for the info
I am starting my tropical garden and this was one of my first plants that I want to grow for food and looks! Thank you for sharing these awesome videos.
The most helpful info I’ve seen so far. Thank you for sharing. I have 2 ice cream trees about 12’ tall and 8 pups around each. Maybe next year I’ll get some fruit. Subbed for sure.
Okayyy 👌 about to start mine.! I grew garlic from Garlic, onion from onion, lettuce from lettuce, but had no idea that you could do the same with a banana 🍌🌿👍
I planted Raja Puri banana tree a couple months ago, and I have a Dwarf Cavendish on order. I also have 4 Paw Paw trees to plant outdoors this spring. I really enjoy your videos, regardless of the topic. Keep up the great work!
I’m new to your Chanel as of this morning. I was given a banana tree last year from a patient, I split it with my aunt. It’s cold in the Chicagoland area so I potted it and in the cold months it’s in our home. I don’t know which one I have but it’s growing beautifully except 2 of the leaves. I watched you cut them off so that leads me to believe I can cut those off. I just subscribed to your change with hopes to learn more. I also have a angel trumpet that I’m so close to tossing out cause it’s only bloomed once in the few years I’ve had it. So with all that being said I’m about to go through your Chanels and see what all information I can gather.
OMG!!! You are wonderful!!!! Just started back to gardening....you are pure education!!!! Thank You!!!! Countryfied City kid in Texas!!! Love Love Love your channel!!!!
Banana are one of the most amazing plants to grow, very easy but cannot grow on cold climates. They love warm and humid weather like Ophir/Philippines, where I’m from, and it grows like crazy. My daughter live in Florida, and have some banana trees going wild. And she did harvested a big bulk of banana fruits. We also has many types of bananas, and most of them are edible. They’re great! Thank you for sharing!
I got two small banana plants and a type of leafy house plant for $30 with shipping included. The banana plants are about 8 inches tall. I wasnt sure how to take care of em, so thank you. I kmow its one of your older videos bur this shows you that even the older ones still are helping ppl. 😊✌🏼❤
Also, ppl will do that when you sell stuff i noticed. I have a poshmark, etsy, ebay, and macari selling sites and normally everyone is happy, but every once in awhile you get that person that did it wrong and are blaming it on you haha. I know i only sell high quality plants and seeds. Cause i plant and garden with the same ones that im selling. Thats the only way i sell stuff. But, it wasnt your plant, it was her lmao
Yes, they are called 'tissue' propagation. Just think onions, flowering bulbs such as amaryllis and blah, you can slice them to grow more plants. The bananas and bulbs have that basal plate why you know it will work. To save money for acres of banana plantation, my folks would cut that corm in half. You leave at least 2 inches of the trunk/stem on, then bury it.
❤ Thank You So Much For Your Videos! I love how you keep it real! Bugs, spades, in your nose, Its All So Real & Funny Too! 😂 Thanks For All You Do! Blessings! 😊
Thankful for the info! Finally started the little garden no excuses. I’m waiting on my banana plants there on the way now. Wish me luck. Hoping you and your family are doing well thanks for the knowledge, we can all eat.
I had a beautiful banana tree in California growing outside. I moved to Arkansas a few years ago. Can I grow banana plants if I bring it indoors in the winter? I love you videos, thx:)
Citronella oil, and Peppermint oil keeps all insects at bay inside your house too, no spiders, midgies or Ants or anything else including Yellow jackets and bees will stay away. Great Video Lead, thank you sir.
You and your wife are amazing. You are excited so we get excited. I'm not interested in plants any more but I MUST sit and watch your videos anyway. Please do one on "Fish Based Fertilizer". I will tell you what I did with that in 1981 later, it was incredible. Keep up the good/great work.
Boss good morning... i admire you for you’re having a green thumb, your passion of doing the garden.. if you dont mind, i wanna share to you and your supporters few words... it necessary cutting those leaves but not that too soon.. you must only cut those leaves only if they turns yellow or old... always keep atleast 4 or 5 leaves. If your plant is just that young especially only having 5 or less leaves, cut those leaves at the very middle and just keep the 2 youngest leaves uncut and grow. If you keep cutting those leaves that soon your plant will keep groing taller but thinner or skinny.. if your banana grows about your height or over 2 years old, you can let the leaves grow to their pick, or till they get dry, just simply cut it on the middle but you must ensure that you keep the base of the stem of the leaves green (not totally covered) by dried leaves, most you need to keep the trunk green or fresh. Cut the leaves from behind or underneath and cut it in slanting (45degrees) or diagonal position. This will ensure you nice cutting and not damaging the stem. Proper timing and position of cutting the grown or dried leaves helps the banana grow healthier and holds the ground heavily against the strong wind... if you keep cutting the leaves that early, yes it will grow easily and more taller but your banana will grow skinny and bears only limited number of fruits, and once bearing fruits it will become prone from falling when the wind blows for it can not support the weight... also it is important to transfer the baby or the new sprout in the right age (have no less that 4 full grown leaves), or no less thant 3 feet high. Just let them grow with the mother or main plant till it grows more and more babies but of no more than 10. For it helps keeping holds the ground strongly, and grow more healthy... also never cut and transfer the baby once the mother plant or the older one is about to bloom a flower or fruits and most if the fruits is a week(s) old. If you do that, it will affect the growing of the fruits that may even lead to dying... also, once your banana bears fruits, let it grow for couple of weeks till the very last part grow bigger, but your must cut the heart’s off once you notice the flower or the very tips of the fruit turning dry. Never allow it growing not being cut. If you want I will recommend you to cut it including the very last line or group of the fruit, it will ensure the fruits grow more bigger and healthier.... and during the harvest it is best to let the fruits grow and turns into light green or yellow in color, or you noticed that all leaves growing old or dying. It makes the fruits more sweeter. And always remember only planting the plant (with atleast 4 full grown leaves) with very young or un-openned leaf and cutted at the middle (the leaves) to ensure it will grow, and, bury the base into the ground of no leass 15 inches or more to ensure it will never fall down once bearing fruits... never worry about the distance between some other plants and your barn. You have a very huge space for them. Enjoy the farming... am glad if you will allow me show you pictures of my plants.
Thank you for explaining what a future is, because I didn't know what that was...thank you I swear at my age I'm surprised that I am still learning stuff.
I just planted an Ice Cream Banana from Willis yesterday. It was $18.95 and I was surprised at it's size and how healthy it looked. I put it in a 25 Gallon fabric pot, so I can move it inside if needed, but I also plan to use this pot to propogate new banana plants that will go in the ground. Most of the banana plants advertised online are not Hardy enough for zone 8a per the nursery, but I know you're in the same zone and you have them in the ground. I might take a risk on another variety based on your experience. What varieties besides ice cream do you recommend since we are in the same zone? Like which one is growing best for you...
@@Ang.0910 I have 5 different ice cream banana plants, but I have yet to get fruit from one. This winter was bad for us, usually see a drop below 20 as our low, but we had a few days in a row below 10 that was rough. I would not be able to grow ice cream banana in the ground in zone 8a because it won’t survive the frost. You really need a tall greenhouse to keep it alive long enough for it to get big enough to fruit.
I am seriously wow’ed at the prices of fruit trees overseas. I seen these approximately two weeks ago in my local supermarket and I put my hand on one at the price of €9.99. Your advice and knowledge of all things fruit just makes me appreciate the price I can grow fruit here. The rise of global warming is making this all possible. I have a pomegranate tree outback amongst the crew. Have you ever had any experience with it? Thanks bro for all you do. Those kiwi setups are a beast lmao we still have to get around to it, For now she is on the ground with no climb space. UA-cam starting your video refresh from 3 days ago?!?! They buggin out!! I don’t even see this video in the recent upload list.
Oh my gosh... I'm so glad I found you.... you have brought light to my life today... listening to you made me smile and laugh... you are definitely family of light... thank you so much for all the information... :)
Wow a tissue culture. I had no idea what that meant. Thanks professor. I just potted up an ice cream plant. Every plant I put in the grown has died no matter how much I watered it. Then I left one in the pot over the winter and it dried up like a prune. I am taking this one inside during the fall. I need to find some good fertilizer.
I love your personality! Just sent your youtube link to my sons. They are starting their own gardens. Please, update this, and please let me know how to purchase a Pup from you. Thankful! ☺👍😷
Lead gardener and lady Gardener My Name is New Growth George My wife's name is Richele Your wife and you and the coronavirus interrupted my plans, Now we are on a mission to get things started with our own gardening. Thank you and we hope to get supplies and start digging I will keep you 2 posted.
I know this is old but the ZZ in the background is stretching. Scoot it right up to the window. Just subscribed due to just now got a dwarf Cavendish banana and wanted to see what different people were saying about it. I always tell people the "plants don't read the books". General info is good but then it is trial and error from there. You sound like you garden the way I do (what ever works for me) hope you are better now and staying healthy.
I just bought the Cavendish Banana Tree on Amazon and I paid 59.00. Came in a pot. I transferred it to a bigger pot that is sitting on the deck. From what you say I'm going to be very happy with it.
Thanks for all the info. I live Las Vegas and I had a very small container garden, And I've always wanted to grow bananas. Yea I think Ima try that bug zapper for the gnats. Thanks for sharing new friend. I'll be back to watch and learn more.
I've got an ice cream banana (not blue java, some close cross), dwarf puerto rican plantain, and manzano banana. Two of them are pushing out pups now. I'm gonna have to try the tissue culture thing now.
I love the way that you take your time and educate us.

I use apple cider vinegar in a water bottle with holes in the top or cut the top off and invert to get rid of fruit flies. Works like a charm.

Thank u for passing the knowledge. Love it!
I love your personality!
Just sent your youtube link to my sons.
They are starting their own gardens.
Please, update this, and please let me know how to purchase a Pup from you.
Thankful!

I know this is old but the ZZ in the background is stretching. Scoot it right up to the window. Just subscribed due to just now got a dwarf Cavendish banana and wanted to see what different people were saying about it. I always tell people the "plants don't read the books". General info is good but then it is trial and error from there. You sound like you garden the way I do (what ever works for me) hope you are better now and staying healthy.
And, what a great mug!....the cup I mean.....
I just bought the Cavendish Banana Tree on Amazon and I paid 59.00. Came in a pot. I transferred it to a bigger pot that is sitting on the deck. From what you say I'm going to be very happy with it.
