Default Re: Late August bloom and help I D

Darn ... is this right???? ... 21 days for the August bunch. The bottle nose is gone, so the bunch could be harvested now if they were to be shipped. ... Leave them on as long as you can until you see some color change to yellow. You can cut back or stop on the foliar spray now.


My Orinoco bunch with the top 2 fingers showing some yellow, ALL the fingers ripened in 3 days after cutting the bunch. ... Let the fingers get a bit of brown on the skin and have a slight soft feel to eat. My Orinoco was still firm in the center but like heavy smooth cream in the mouth with a slight apple like taste. ... Dam good ice cream Banana splits or nana slices in a fruit salad.


Thanks for the picture!
