  • In this video I will show in details how to cut properly a banana tree to have better production and a healthier banana patch. Taking care of your banana trees means bigger and more nutritious fruit and also less work not letting them over grow.
    Tips on how to use the trunk and leaves to nourish other fruit trees you might have and fertilize any fruit tree in the most natural and efficient way.

    Very good information about the reason for the funnel cut. I’ve only ever seen it done on one other video. I’m going to practice this on my bananas as well. I’m in Florida, I’m not sure if we have the bug or beetle, but I don’t want to take any chances.

      Hey Jacob thanks for your comment. I was wondering where in US people would grow bananas other than in Hawaii!
      I’ve been working here for many years and never really seen people working with bananas this way and the patches get really nasty and weak. Cut as low as possible, keep thinning them and you got it! Subscribe if you can to help me more good content is coming!

      @@CesarPlantingHealing yessir! Florida is the next best place to grow bananas besides Hawaii in the US. Where did you learn to care for and grow bananas? It’s obvious you have some expertise on this subject. I’ve only been growing them a year but have been successful in doing so. I stick to one mother plant and 2-3 sword suckers. I actually take out the water suckers and grow them in pots. They will grow to full maturity and fruit unlike what many others say. They just take longer to do so compared to sword suckers. What do you think of this? Thank you for the tips and tricks! I just subscribed.

      @@CesarPlantingHealing I’m very happy to subscribe and learn more! I’ve only began growing bananas now for a year. But in that year, I’ve gone banana crazy. I still have lots to learn but I never grow tired of it. I usually stick to having one mother plant and 2-3 sword suckers on one banana mat. That seems to be working well; even though I probably could get away with bigger clumps. I actually pot the water suckers up. They will eventually fully mature and produce fruit identical to a sword sucker, but much slower. I’ve heard too many people claim that water suckers don’t do anything, but they really do. What do you think about that? I’m growing Dwarf Namwah, Raja Puri, Blue Java, Gran Nain, Dwarf Cavendish, Truly Tiny Cavendish and SH 3640. Hopefully going to be getting a Mysore and a Pisang Ceylon this year.

      Hey @jacobwhite953 I’ve been learning for around 10 years since young times in Brazil traveling and working in permacultural retreats and agroforestry farms. I’m trying to expand my career and serve more people with this many years of knowledge and experience about permaculture and healthy lifestyle integrated in nature. My main mentor was and still is Ernst Goestch and his students in Brazil. You just gave me ideas to make a video about it! Thanks again! Let’s keep sharing our experiences

    I have around 500 banana trees of various varieties. I started planting them 3 years ago, and it has become the funnest job I ever had. I am trying to sell my bananas and banana pups locally, and just now am I in the position to offer them consistently. Great video!1

    Nice!
    If you like to prevent the banana fruits from breaking, you could grab the stem where the banana heart is growing to hold & support the whole bunch before it touches the ground. I once let the trunk fall freely & had many broken pieces.
    It's fun!

    I wish I could grow bananas I’d use the trunks for mulching my fruit trees

      You’re so sweet with this comment. Thank you so much.
      I have so much to share but still learning how to express well in videos and in my ebook. But I will get there. I made a channel 10 years ago to share about raw food and how to plant. So many years passed and I’m still growing and learning so much but the time finally came I won’t stop creating videos and relating health-soil health-plants in a sintropic holistic way! I’m glad you already see the beginning of it and already see some value. All the health and blessings your way. Please keep sharing your journey planting, eating and becoming healthier and the time pass by…

    I do use a very old and rusty saw for bananas here in Thailand. Great video as they are super food for any other plants. So then I also changed all my tall bananas to draft bananas. So much easier to handle and no seeds in a fruits. Real like Chikitas.

    • @CesarPlantingHealing
      @CesarPlantingHealing  3 месяца назад

      Thanks for sharing! Thailand wow what a dream! So you kind eliminate the tall patch? I just recorded a video about elimination to substitute for other trees… Chikitas is the name of the kind of bananas? I wish I could try all kinds there’s so many! Blessings from Hawaii stay healthy!

      Oh really!? Never heard of this. But didn’t really understand. Daga is smaller and machete are longer? What’s “hoja de sable”?
