Hydrogel for banana
Support early establishment of tissue-culture and sucker plantings.
Why water matters for banana
Banana has shallow roots and a high water demand; young plants suffer quickly when irrigation is missed in summer.
When to apply
- At planting, mixed into pit soil.
- Optional top-up in the first summer after planting.
How to apply
- Mix with the soil used to fill the planting pit.
- Irrigate after planting so granules swell.
