2 things you should do to boost the bunch size of your Plantain when it fruits

So this is what you should do once you noticed your Plantain has fruited inflorescence

1. Don’t allow it Lack water this period of it fruiting. This is very important, you shouldn’t allow your Plantain to experience drought at this stage because water helps alot in fruit formation and it needs it the most now. Water it morning or evening to make it accessable to enough water if thre isn’t rain.

1. Introduce poultry manure: Organic poultry manure is the best manure you can give to your Plantain and banana as it contains the major required nutrient that both Plantain and banana has.

Poultry manure contains NPK(Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) so it’s the best organic manure for soil replacement.

Nitrogen(N)  will keep the plant green.

Phosphorus(P)  will help in the

flowering and strong root formation, while

Potassium(K) helps for proper plant growth,  and reproduction.
