Default Re: FHIA 03 Sweetheart

At my previous home I had an active banana plat. Pups needed to be thinned on a regular basis. But when the main plant was fruiting or near fruiting, I liked to select one pup that had a good chance of maturing in next year's spring and remove the rest. It's an art that comes with experience of each variety in your climate. I wasn't always successful but each year I got better at it.
