Default Re: Banana tree snapped in half with almost mature fruit!!

Unless the leaves turns brown, leave the fruit alone. The bunch is still getting sap/nourishment though the break. ...You want to raise the bunch off the ground slightly to keep ants away. ... I've seen bunches grow and ripen after the pstem breaks from hurricane damage.


Next time put a support under the bunch to take the weight off of the pstem.
