Mostly BSV free ? Is that like 95% certain

We'll another way we can look at this topic is examining the available resources. Will AS procure a new variety by their own means or would someone have to offer it to them? Answering this question may limit our choices and narrow the selection process.

If you put 10 Caligolds in a greenhouse up there you'd get alot more than bite sized morsels for every banana.. It would save on the heater bill too.. :^)

Aren't they going to have banana farms in Georgia w/veinte cohol.."

Rob what do you find desirable about the SH-3640.

I thought FHIA considered it more a failure than a success.

If you want a new variety, you'll have to supply the plant. Also, they have a minimum production requirement, so you'll have to meet that as well.

For my climate, Namwah (sold as Misi Luki) has been the best tasting and the most productive.

Isn't SH-3640 susceptible to black sigatoka?

Just one of the better tasting ones I've had. Of course the few I had were labeled "likely" SH-3640 at a banana festival.

where does one get a real Ice Cream/Blue Java Banana plant?

sddarkman619 · 10-21-2013, 03:01 PM

Just got off the phone with Agristarts. The Blue Java/Ice Cream they have they say they got from Going Bananas n Florida. They go by what the person tells them it is. He also said they could get it genetically tested but it's expensive and a hassle, they did this with some blueberries once.

I told him and they have heard people saying the blue java they sell isn't a real blue java. I said well if I get you a real blue java would you guys fix that? He said a good possibility and gave me the contact to discuss with. So I will be talking to him later today.

I also just ordered some Veinte Cohols, which yes I will be selling.

Jon (pitangadiego) has them. That's where I got mine.

Everyone told me Encanto farms but I remember it being price too high for me. . . You in Cali, just walk a couple blocks? Not that easy?

Mitchell told me that one of the pups on one of his PKs was showing BSV symptoms once and was growing strangely. He got rid of it and hasn't had a problem since.
