Default Re: An Update Of My Latest Nana Plants 2019!

*****An Update!*****



Woohooo!.....Finally!....Thanks to the very experienced Nana grower and forum member Nick (Nick Naranjas), I acquired the other African Rhino Horn Plantain Variety that I was looking for!....Also, Nick sent me The Common Harton Plantain Variety!.....Two (2) huge corms!.......Thank you Nick!....I really appreciate it!.......



The following pictures are from 01/11/2019.....



Picture when I received the huge corms.....The Common Harton Plantain (left) and The Red ARH Plantain (right).....





Common Harton Plantain corm taking a bath of water with bleach....





The Red ARH Plantain (left) and Common Harton (right) corms all cleaned up ready to be transplanted.....





The Red ARH Plantain (left) and Common Harton (right) corms transplanted on big pots using pool filter silica coarse sand and lots of perlite mix......





Now I got both ARH Plantain Varieties!......The green TARS ARH Plantain Variety (left) and The Red ARH Plantain Variety (right)!......They will be transplant close to each other in spring time!.....






A couple of pictures of both ARH Plantain Varieties as reference!.....Woohooo!....Baseball bats league!......


The Red ARH Plantain Variety!....







TARS ARH Plantain Variety (green version)......This has been verified!.....Unfortunately, I lost the mat during hurricane Irma in 2017!....I only saved the current pup that I have!.....













An Update of both corms from yesterday, 01/14/2019.....In just a couple of days, both corms are pushing out hard!....

The Common Harton Plantain corm......





Also, I transplanted a small, tiny SH-3640 High Noon pup!......LOL!.....Pictures don't do justice!......A monster SH-3640 High Noon pup approx. 5 1/2 ft. tall and 10-12 pounds range, ready to be transplanted to a big pot......SH-3640 pup has a nub (pup) formed already!....
