Since I'm out of the potassium nitrate, I give them a tablespoon of calcium nitrate. I use the stump remover by Spectricide since it's 100% potassium nitrate. I also pile some compost around both plants every once in a while.

Just wondering... when they break down you have potassium and nitrogen. The other calcium and nitrogen. Those are not equivalent. But they serve the same purpose? I do understand the bananas love for potassium.
