Hi Bananaman88
Thanks for that, I didn't think it took so long do I have to wait for the bananas to go yellow?

Re: Bananas everywere
Hi MediaHound
I noticed on the site for removing pups use a spade and cut straight down, but what if I dug with a small hand trowel and break off the pups at the root source?
Thanks
