There was no observation done for you, you did everything on your own... well, you and your trusty FHIA Guidebook.

Thanks for showing the folks that by reading a short description in your FHIA Guidebook about the FHIA-01 bud,

"the FHIA-01 has a short heart-shaped male bud with wide shoulders and bracts that lift one at a time."

you were easily able to distinguish the FHIA-01 from the FHIA-18 without the need of any description or photo of the FHIA-18. With this knowledge you've acquired you will be able to distinguish the FHIA-01 from most of the others bananas in the world.

Congrats & Cheers
