Default Dwarf Namwah Harvest

I pulled a hand off last week to check their ripeness, and decided to harvest them this week. When I looked at them last night, they were already starting to turn yellow. Harvested 11 hands of fruit, heres some pics.

Wow..congrats! I'll be happy if I ever get a harvest that's a quarter of that size! Oh, who am I kidding...I'd take one hand! Nice job!

Very nice, Brian! I hope I have half of that in a couple of years when mine might be ready to fruit.

Thanks everyone! When the harvest comes in, it's the pinnacle of excitement for me. But I think my neighbors and friends may enjoy it just as much. One neighbor, from the Philippines, takes all the male flower buds, so there is no waste going on here!
I think she likes the flowers more than the fruit. The most asked question on the block is: Are they ready yet?

Awesome looking fruit! One of my bananas (the one I originally thought was basjoo) looks like it has finally thrown up a flag leaf. Hopefully I'll see the bud soon. It needs to get on with it if I'm going to get fruit before it starts cooling down.
