![]() Of my three new banana plants, the Goldfinger was the first to put out a sucker at about 8 weeks out of Going Bananas.
We had a good discusion on this in another thread. Per the Goldfinger people: Young shoots have to be removed every 8 weeks. The removal of "sister shoots" should be done 4 months after planting. Right now I plan on leaving this one to see if it is a sister or not. Randy The ice-cream and Apple plants are three months out from the TC but no suckers as of yet.
