Banana variety called 'Nenthran' need lot of care, so were not successful in the farm. At least it should be provided water in the dry season and I was not able to do it. This time planted 5 nenthran suckers around the home, since I have water connection, in dry season, I can irrigate with whatever water is available. I get around 3500 litres of water everyday and I just use only 10 or 15 litres on alternate days, so I have plenty of water.
Put glyrecedia leaves in the pit and planted suckers and mulched with grass around. Also put three glyrecedia sticks around each plant so I have enough leaves for mulching and also they can provide shade in the summer and also can be used as a support in the future. In this case, I would be allowing only the main plant and all the other suckers which comes out will be cut and mulched.

With good rain and mulching, they are doing good
