There might even be some folk out there who don't even know they want to grow bananas yet!

Precisely what this site doesn't need... It would just raise the numbers, but in the end, the only communicating would still be done by us.
The problem also is the language you know, not all the world's growers can speak English. But to make this site multilingual? It would lose the key factor - understanding. So it's back to square one. Sorry to be pessimistic, but as a programmer I've seen several forums undergo such changes and it never turned out to be good. The change must come spontaniously.
