Grow it out good. This years first bunch had fantastic taste. Next bunch to pop was SH3640 --- same same on taste and texture. Hate to give away to friends and neighbors but how many naners can you eat in one day?!

Congrats John. The colors on fhia-02 are amazing! As Hector said the 02 and 18 are the only 2 of the FHIA line that have this color! FHIA 02 always seemed to grow slow up here! I’m sure it does much better down there for you.

The coloring on the FHIA-02 looks amazing and sounds like it tastes good, but I keep hearing reports that it's slow growing. I have FHIA-03 and hope to soon have FHIA-01 so I'm wondering if it's worth also growing FHIA-02. I have a dwarf Brazilian and it also seems to be one of the slowest growers for me compared to everything else I have.

I have two.,Fhia-2 that are from Tissue culture they seem to be slow to grow. I was lucky to pick up known TARS 18058 FHIA-17 ,TARS 17760 FHIA-02 & TARS 17843 FHIA-18 and these all grow faster. It seems to me the TCs have differences and I replaced any of the TCs or unknowns with FHIA plants with all Tars
