Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
I have no idea, I grew them from a store bought pineapple. I harvested 6 total this year and these were my first pineapples grown from suckers rather then crowns. They only seem bloom in early spring if that helps.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
Those Paggi bananas are fantastic flavored, but they fall off as soon as they are near ripe, which is a pain, but the flavor is worth it. Thanks again for helping a newbie get to try different varieties. Not everyone is so decent, you know.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
They are a sweet and fruity dessert type. So far, my favorite tasting banana. Don't know much more about them except they literally fall off the bunch when near ripe, which is a pain. Almost nothing in the wiki about them, cold hardiness or anything.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
It's odd. It has a classic banana aroma, a golden-orange color to the flesh, strings from the peel stick to the fruit and feels a bit cavendishy biting into it, but tastes nothing like one. Has a good bit of tanginess like a Brazilian. Overall pretty good. Still no idea what it could be though.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
Yes, their flavor is fantastic but their tendency to collapse with a bunch isn't!

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
Am I the only one who gets a database error message every time I try to go to new posts or unanswered posts? Sorry for posting here, but my user cp is the only thing not doing it and this is the busiest thread in my user cp now. Therefore, best chance for an answer or a fix.
