Harvested a very small bunch of Sucrier aka Pisang Mas after about 3 years in the ground and a hair under 3 months since the flower emerged. Probably could have waited but I didn't want it ripening when I'm gone most of September. Also harvested another Dwarf Brazillian bunch early for the same reason.

Harvested the Datil bunch. Waited longer than usual to see if fingers got bigger - they didn't. Notice the choke point on the peeduncle.

Another DB bunch, 5 months from flower to harvest, probably had 2-4 weeks to go but this is another one that was right on the street tempting thieves. Hoping they ripen quickly. I hate having to buy them!

Small bunch of Ice Cream. They look more blue in real life than in the picture. Plant was propped up but p-stem collapsed above that so it was time to harvest.
