Ice Cream harvest
The latest harvest of Ice Cream was probably the best yet. Only 62 fingers (where I usually get 80+), but each one developed into such a nice, plump banana. I decided to go ahead and pull them off, as I was afraid they might split if I left them on much longer. Should be ripe enough to eat just before Christmas!

Re: Ice Cream harvest
NICE!!! Way to go!
That little one I had broke in half fell over and the other two stalks flowered. LoL The only harvest I ever got was my first one and it was only 4 hands. I have been thinking about getting ride of my IC, but having seen yours I will keep mine a little longer. |

Re: Ice Cream harvest
I would definitely recommend keeping your IC, Mike. Mine has been the most productive cultivar I have and a very hardy plant. I've got two Mysores with fruit and a D. Brazilian that just flowered - they're going to love all the rain we've been getting over the past few days!!!

Re: Ice Cream harvest
Now we just need like 2 - 3 good days of bright sun. My tank is overflowing with water right now.
