Default Re: What are signs that my Orinocos are ready for harvest?

my experience with readiness of fruit is to wait until the fruit is about as plump as it's going to get then harvest the fruit. You can put ripe bananas or other fruit next to the freshly harvested bananas to induce ripening....or the lazy method is wait until the pseudostem falls over then harvest the fruit (;
