Could you upload some images of the problem Norm? over 8 years ago.
Norm, if the Keys are as wet as Central Florida (where I am) that could be the problem. We have had an unusually heavy rainy season and flooding this summer in Florida. Excessive water can cause leaf yellowing in banana plants. It displaces oxygen in the ground also and affects the roots. Since you are in Florida, here is a University of Florida link to growing bananas in the home landscape https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/mg040 . Have you had a tremendous amount of rain during the last month? over 8 years ago.
No, matter of fact we are on water restrictions,,(I still water as needed) but not alot of excess here. over 8 years ago.
You'll need to upload some pictures like Lindsay asked - it will help a great deal. over 8 years ago.
I will try figuring out how to do so, thank you for your time, (Lindsay also) will be back when I figure it out. over 8 years ago.
While you are working out how to upload :), check the plant library at Plant Village and see if any of the pictures or any of the symptoms correspond to what you are seeing with your bananas. over 8 years ago.
