A banana tree's soil should be rich in organic matter (peat, compost, coco fiber, manure) with plenty of perlite or vermiculite mixed in. Some sites recommend adding 20% more perlite or vermiculite to the soil mixture. A pH of 5.5-6.5 is recommended. Heavily mulch your banana plant. Fertilize with a balanced (10-10-10) diluted liquid fertilizer or granular fertilizer once a month. Add wood ash for an extra boost of potassium.
