Musa Tu'u Ghia Update!

HMelendez · 09-14-2019, 06:40 AM

*****Musa Tu’u Ghia Update!*****

Musa Tu’u Ghia bunch snapped during hurricane Dorian passing by very close!....Musa Tu’u Ghia bunch wasn’t fill-in completely but still edible!....Also it developed some type of outside peel fungus because of the heavy rains, not a big deal, but in which I will avoid next time bagging the bunch!....Now the taste!...Oh God!....Thank you for opening the Nana Gates of Heaven!....A creamy and firm Nana Variety with an awesome, amazing hint of spicy/cinnamon flavor, taste to it!....Definitely one of my favorites now!...Up there with the best!....

Pictures taken on 09/11/2019...…

Those look awesome.

Very twisty looking bananas. Pity the bunch was knocked down but the weather didn't completely spoil your party.

Tytaylor77 · 09-16-2019, 12:55 PM

Amazing my bro. Your next bunch will be much much bigger! By timing your bunch and mine I hope mine ripen in a month or so.

My bunch is smaller and the fruit are about like twisty skinny pencils! But I still can’t wait to taste them! Being Nicks favorite means a lot!! You have tasted way more than me!

I can for sure see wind problems! Mine has a tiny skinny pstem! I can see wind being a major problem for Tu’u Ghia!

Awesome job as always!
Woooohooooo

Thanks! I hope to find one to plant at our place. The one we received from the USDA was mislabeled.

Thank you Celeste!....Don't worry!.....I'm already working on that!.....

HMelendez · 09-19-2019, 06:35 AM

Thanks everybody for the comments!.....I really appreciate them!....

*****Just a couple of observations as well as advices!*****

*Musa Tu'u Ghia grows kind of tall, 10 ft. before flowering in my growing conditions...…
*As my bro Ty mentioned, Tu'u Ghia P-Stem is SKINNY!.....Definitely needs wind protection!....IT'S A MUST!....
*Needs to be planted "strategically" to be protected!.....My Tu'u Ghia is planted surrounded by tall Nana Varieties....
*Also as an AA Genome Nana Variety doesn't like the cold at all!....
*When flowering, blooming, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND propping/brace the bunch!.....

Max I know I promised you some Musa Tu'u Ghia fruits!....It's on!....You got my word!...Too bad the bunch got snapped!...It doesn't have a nice long shelve time (ripening time) after harvest!...
