How to fertilize for Banana Tree in Terrace Gardens

Updated: Oct 4, 2021

Bio-fertilizer is the best fertilizer for the Banana trees that are grown in Terrace Gardens.


Advantage of using Bio-Fertilizer:

  • They contains living micro-​organisms and is cost effective, environmental friendly and renewable source of plant nutrients which helps in promoting the growth of plants and trees.

  • Bio fertilizers are required to restore the fertility of the soil.

  • Bio fertilizers enhance the water holding capacity of the soil and add essential nutrients such as Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Vitamins and proteins for the soil.

Take 1 kg of Potash Bio fertilizer in the mixing tray. Potash Bio fertilizer supports plant growth, increase crop yield and disease resistance, and enhance water preservation


Then add 1kg of Phosphate Bio fertilizer in the mixing tray. This produces healthy rhizome and a strong root system. It also influences flower setting and general vegetative growth.


Then add 1kg of Nitro Bio fertilizer in the mixing tray. Nitro Bio fertilizer is the chief promoter of growth. It induces vegetative growth and gives leaves healthy green colour and robust frame which are essential for high yields.


Finally add 1 kg of mixed oil cake power in the mixing tray. Mixed oil cake powder ensures optimal growth during all stages of growth by soil aeration. It also enhances soil metabolism and encourages spreading of the roots and greater root penetration and facilitates greater uptake of nutrients for the banana tree


Mix all the added fertilizers so that all the macronutrients like Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) can be equally fed to the fruiting tree.


Remove the top soil in the grow bag upto 3 inches and am creating a circular ring around the Banana tree.

Appy half kilogram of bio-fertilizer mix around the fruiting a tree closer to the roots.

Cover the fertilizer with the soil so that the nutrients will be slowly released into the soil.

Fertilizers application results in the increased uptake of water, development of roots, vegetative growth, increased minerals and increased fixation of nitrogen
