Re: What are the best tasting banana varieties to you?

That makes sense. This makes me want to replace all my orinocos because they really don’t ripen up to taste very good to me. I may just sell the bananas to my local Asian market for other fruits

Re: What are the best tasting banana varieties to you?

Do you use burrow Orinoco bananas as a plantain or let them ripen like a dessert banana? I’d probably like to get a goldfinger or a Brazilian too

Re: Am I killing my first bananas?

When it comes to new plants like this, I like to pot them up and leave them in a mostly shady area with light amounts of water to let them acclimate. You can never go wrong starting slow with them.

Re: Banana plants uprooting

No way to know for sure but the roots have to be a bit under developed because like you said usually these plants can withstand a good amount of wind and abuse before tipping over. My namwah has...

Re: Do you let your pups “dry out” before potting?

Okay good I’m glad I’m not the only one, thanks Bill. After losing that one I’ll definitely keep them drier for the first couple weeks or so. I actually let my last 3 pups sit out for almost 2 days...
