how many fruitless bracts on a bud?
For you experienced producers of banana fruits, is there a typical number of fruitless bracts on a bud before you get the first bract with female flowers (baby bananas) under it? My first inflorescence (on a Goldfinger) had three bracts without any fruits before the first one with female flowers under it. Is that typical? Just curious.

Re: how many fruitless bracts on a bud?
Normally it is 1 or 2, but three can be normal for some varieties.

Re: how many fruitless bracts on a bud?
It is quite normal, 2 bracts without fruits. But I knew now there is a case
of 3 bracts without fruits. |
