10/4.. we'll just let the regulars who snoop around regularly find the thread on their own

Thanks again, very generous of you. Was this sponsored by the University of Hawaii, or all personal, or what?

You are welcome. The video was sponsored by a Cooperative Agreement between the University of Hawaii at Manoa and the USDA Pacific Basin Agricultural Research Center. Funds were for public education regarding banana bunchy top disease.

Here you can watch/download the "Growing Bananas" video online:
Videos - Banana cultivation and diseases – The Plant Doctor

Be patient for download, it is a 259 mb file (a 36 minute video).
The above version is for Windows Media player.
I will post versions for other players tomorrow (Flash) or soon thereafter.

You are welcome, Glenn.

There is much more on the DVD, including about a dozen .pfd files, another video about banana bunchy top disease, and the content for a couple of my websites.

Yesterday I posted a link here in this thread for people to download it and watch in online.

I received mine, and got my whole family to watch it with me. It is fantastic, Dr. Nelson (Scot). I really appreciate it and am glad that someone finally took the time to make a DVD solely about Bananas. Although it is about growing bananas in Hawaii, the information is applicable to anywhere.

Again, thanks so much. It ought to be put online so more people can access it, as well as sent to large public libraries!

Jarred- have you ever considered a video-hosting portion added to this site? Just wondering...I think it would be great to have all videos in one area here for all members to access, including the Growing Bananas videos & PDFs! Might not be enough server space, but a neat suggestion at least.

Taylor - thank you very much for your kind words.

Here is the "Growing Bananas" video online in three file formats:
Videos - Banana cultivation and diseases – The Plant Doctor

I also have podcast versions available.
