Thanx for pointing that out.

If you add the the two numbers (from the table)
from planting days to harvest days,
the SH 3640 is 4th in terms of speed of growth/maturity.
Gran Nain was third @295days.
FHIA 2 & 18 was 5th & 6th from the list.

I wonder where the Namwah, DB, mysore and the rest fall in the list?

Thanx.
A ton of naners are blooming, 2 many 2 list.


@GB
This was a study on synthetic hybrid bananas with a few local cultivars as a reference. I only included a few from the study.

If you're looking to grow FHIA, go with the SH-3640 it tastes best and grows fast. The FHIA-03 grows fast and is probably the best for colder climates.
Be careful of info from members with misidentified bananas.
I harvested 3 FHIA-02 bunches today and all went into the compost, the bunches that went into the house today were Veinte Cohol, Verdin, Morado, Dwarf Brazilian, Manzano, & SH-3640.
