Default Pisang Klotek Bunch Harvested early

This afternoon I noticed that this PK bunch had bent over and landed on the shade cloth covereing my driveway. I recently removed the "kick stand" that was supporting it and tried to support them using rope and some cushioning but it was a bit too low on the PS leaving the bunch top heavy. Oh well, hopefully they will ripen and taste good! I was expecting to harvest them towards the end of summer.

This is me and 248 bananas!!

Yes it's variegated shell ginger and then some heliconia behind that. The plant right behind me with fruit hanging that you can't see very well in the picture is the "Becky" banana that I think might be a dwarf brazilian.
