I'm looking to cross two seeded banana varieties. Anybody got some good directions on hand pollinating banana blossoms? I'm looking for the whole directions thing along with pictures if possible. Gabe?? =)

Thanks!

Here is a link to some images and a brief description to the way I do it.

It's pretty easy, just be careful. You may find yourself with hundreds of hybrid seeds like I did and start plowing up the lawn in the front yard to have a place to grow them.
