Bananas generally require a tropical or subtropical climate for optimum growth. Bananas have shallow root systems (top 500mm), they require well drained soil that is high in organic matter (Ref. BASAL, BIO-HUME)
Banana Special a formulate containing potassium and many other macro and micronutrient amino acid, vitamins specially designed to feed bananas and meet their general nutritional requirements. It is an organic based foliar spray, which can also be used for crown treatment through leaf stalk. Potassium is the key element in banana nutrition. Potassium (K) as sulphate is more desirable than high salt potassium chloride for most soils and plant types.
Fertilizer programs developed in conjunction with soil and leaf tissue test results will help to maximize economic yield
Banana leaf tissue nutrient levels: Typical ranges
| Nitrogen | 3-4% |
| Phosphorus | 0.19-0.25% |
| Sulphur | 0.2-0.27% |
| Potassium | 3-4% |
| Calcium | 0. 74-1.25% |
| Magnesium | 0.3-0.46% |
A plant tissue analysis should be conducted annually. Annual analyses allow the relationships between fertilizer inputs and plant performance to be more closely understood.
Soil test: The approximate balance of cations is:
| Calcium (Ca) | 65-80% |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 10-15% |
| Potassium (K) | 3-6% |
| Sodium (Na) | 0% |
| Aluminium (Al) | <5% |
| Ca/Mg ratio | 3-5:1 |
| pH | 5.1-5.6 |
For Micropropagated Banana : Banana Special a phenomenal product which will strengthen your clones ’roots and offer your new plants the best chance of survival when transplanted. For better results treat with MR. PHOS a organic base fungicide that helps suppress and resist damping off diseases. Unlike the use of fungicides alone it breaks the chronic disease cycle while leaving no toxic residue. For best results apply early, before disease become established.
For Eco-Friendly, Non-Toxic Bananas Use our all-purpose insect repellant SUMO works even as contact insecticide against Mites, Aphids, White flies etc. there by reduces the occurrence of insect transmitted viral diseases. Make the first application at early stage of plant and repeat on a 25-30 days spray schedule to maintain the repellency effect.
GUIDELINES FOR APPLICATION: Add 4 ml of Banana Special and 1 ml of WET MAGICin a litre of water and mix them well.
Application method: • Grown treatment: 250 ml of solution is poured slowly on the top leaf stalk so that the overflow is trapped by lower ones. • Foliar spray: Thorough spray on both surfaces of the leaves is recommended. Both the grown treatment & Foliar Spray are recommended once in a month till the 7 months stage
We recommend frequent small applications, rather than fewer applications with greater amounts. • Helps to develop the proper root system • Increase resistance to diseases and drought • Quickly corrects nutrient deficiency problems. • Enhances the flower and fruit set • Better colour and size of the bunches. • Increase yield.
