Re: Chini Champa first bunch

I am growing a Chini Champa. It does not resemble the pictures that Dan posted of his Chini Champa fruit. It most closely resembles and tastes simular to the Mysore I grew years ago. I don't grow...

Re: Ae Ae propagation project

After looking at those pictures again, I have become inspired. I'm thinking of resurrecting "the project" but in a smaller way. I have confirmed that the planting stock from the original project is...

Re: SH 3640 Taste Report

I don't think what you have pictured is SH-3640 . Those bananas look to be about 5-6 inches long. That picture also has persistent male flowers, which the SH-3640 does not have. The shape, length,...

Re: Red Banana leaves turning brown

Sounds like over-watering. It's easy to do in pots. Transplant it and you can see if there are any signs of rot. It's hard to know for sure without pictures, but it's not sunburn.
