No I didn’t dilute the Bonide Stump and Vine Killer - it’s 8.8% trichlopyr and made to use directly on cut vines, etc - the lid has a small brush attached to apply it. You must apply it immediately after cutting the stem while the wound is still fresh. There is a more concentrated form of trichlopyr you can buy in small quantities LINK, if you can get that I’d consider using that directly on a cut banana stem, paint it on or inject with a syringe/turkey injector.

May take more than one application if the banana stem begins to resprout, but over a summer I eliminated my banana problem permanently. I can’t promise you it will work for you but it did for me, and it wasn’t a single plant - probably a couple dozen. Now these were “dwarf” banana plants, but still 7 to 8 feet tall before I cut them.
