    Hi Weedy! When we grew bananas, we would just chop them as close to the bottom as possible, and add a thick layer of mulch on top. We never had pups grow back in that spot. I have tried it this way with water before, but it would be a breeding ground for mozzies where we are, so keep that in mind too. Love your videos! Happy Gardening :-)

    Here in Panama you chop the banana about 3 feet high so the stalk that contains water continues to feed the clump. When you cut down the next bananas you remove the previous ones stump that you left at three feet

    My opinion on climbing that ladder is chop down and chop up all your tall banana varieties use them as mulch, and only grow the dwarf types,. The injury won't be worth it, just a matter of time. All dwarf types produce as much as tall types and they are safe and delicious.

    Thanks for the video, Mr. Weedy. I have made a slight alteration to your method by incorporating rock salt into the cavities made first and then pouring a lil water into the hollow, as an alternative to using kerosene or diesel. Will let you know how that went. Love your content BTW. From Kerala, India.

      We are way more dry than in Australia. In the past two years both Portugal and Spain have been facing severe droughts and our dams keep getting less and less water with every year. While its true we have a lot of sun, but we dont have enough water to naturaly produce something like what Weedy has built.

    It might just be worth noting, the reason why people use diesel, or kerosene, is because the water will breed mosquitoes. If you only have a few plants, you can splash the water away and refill it every few days to stop it though 😊

    ..Have you tried planting directly into banana stools(trunk)..awesome for leafy greens and so much more.
    After harvesting bananas, cut cell(of a seedling punnet)-sized holes into sides and top of your horizontally located banana "trunk". Pick out and compost those little bits from the square hole..Plant direct from punnet without teasing roots out, a snug fit is good..Foliar feed\water first few days...Can be placed straight on prepared beds., adding nourishment and that black-goodness that decomposition of organic matter does..
    So many ideas, not enough garden space...Hope you can have a play with that idea anyhow.

    We have a strange breed of bananas with large seeds in the fruit. They were on the property when we bought it and are taking over the place. They are pretty but not worth keeping them since we can eat them. Does this method work to kill the whole patch? It will be a lot of work but would rather do water than contaminating the soil. Please let us know😉

    Kerosene and diesel are organic.
    It's just they are complex carbon based types of organic molecules.
    Those puppies breakdown fastest with Fungi.
    Mushrooms can feed on the organic compounds and break down the lignins that bond those carbons together.
    Water seems so much easier.

    You need to cut the flower off after it stops making bananas so that every thing gos to the fruit and when you harvest cut about ten inches down from the top slowly and your bunch of bananas will fold down so you can reach them..soon you will be able to judge how far down to cut ...

    We, here in India, use the banana leaves as a plate/dish to eat out of. You may keep a cutting from a banana leaf on your regular plate and then pile up your food on it. It will also reduce your washing efforts, as you can just throw the banana leaf away in compost.

    • @TheWeedyGarden

    Water indeed make other trees to root if wounded. Weird that I didn't think about it as I already knew that fact.

    Weedy, your videos are always a work of art, fully enjoyable. But as you're looking for new things to explore and show us, please, PLEASE, don't fall into the trap that other youtubers do; to keep a steady schedule of weekly uploads, they sacrifice content, quality, and lean hard on stock footage and shallow topics, etc. Take your time, make the great content you always have. Even if it's once a month, or once ever six months, when I see a weedy garden video on my front page, it's always a treat. It's the quality content that lasts years on youtube.
    If you're looking for ideas, what sorts of other setbacks have you had (I really enjoyed the teddy vs turkeys)? Did you fight off diseases on your plants? Have you tried grafting various types of fruit branches onto a root stock? What about alternatives to the amendments you're adding to your soil, what else is there? Have you done soil tests? Also, where do you want your youtube channel to go? Your story telling and editing are what drew me in and I loved every minute of it, but gardening is a finite topic (unless you want to get scientific). You've done some cooking on the channel, perhaps pull on this thread some more? Hope this sparks an idea or two.

    At 0:40 for a few seconds when you're showing the knife, you turn it repeatedly to reflect sunlight into the camera lens. These glaring effects are really straining on my eyes and can trigger a migraine, which can last for three days for me.

    Can you take the pup off and move it some where else? I have ice cream bananas growing 3 in a circle with a pup forming on one and i thought i was supposed to keep it there.

    Surely most tips from farmers will be financially focused or time saving. Show me a farm that’s got improved soil after a 100 years and I’ll pay attention. I’ve never taken a cup of water to fill the banana bowl. That made me smile, bananas are 90% water, they quickly fill the bowl themselves. You can also do the whole task with a large machete, you don’t need a set of knives.

      I was thinking the same. The cup method is a standard method in Syntropic Agroforestry, and is also used when the greatgrandmother is cut down. The cup automatically fills with water, and prevents fungal diseases from entering the cut stem and spreading into your other banana plants. This video is all about that ua-cam.com/video/zLadZYiLN-Q/v-deo.html

    Actually, how unhealthy is diesel to use in the garden area? One of the problems with using diesel as a fuel is that it can get algae growing in it, so it can't be all bad.
