Soak the Musa seeds for 24 hours then sow them in good compost and cover them with about 1 cm of grit or compost. Place the mix in a well lit spot but out of direct sunlight, at temperatures between 25 - 30°C (75- 90°F). Most bananas benefit from hot days and cooler nights for best germination. Check weekly for signs of activity by looking for shoots. Ensure that the medium does not dry out. The seeds can take anywhere from 2 – 54 weeks (or more) to germinate; however, most will sprout after 4-6 weeks. After the seeds have sprouted, carefully transfer to a pot, label, fertilize and place in bright light, but not in full sun. Aim to keep the soil moist (but not wet) at all times, feed and pot on as required. Germination can take longer. Be patient!
