Re: WOW! Amazing Agriculture Technology - Giant Banana farming techniques

Just a video of clips of a banana plantation. No "Techniques", "Technology", or growing description or advice was provided. Pretty lame.

Re: World's Largest Banana - Musa Ingens

This video is crap, almost all of the intro text is not true, and none of the fruit photos at the end are M. ingens, its all cultivars, mostly Plantains, some others, and even one stolen from me.

Re: Hawaii was not as Musa diverse as I thought it would be

We were actually in Pahoa and were going down the road to see the lava trees and turned around because it said the roads were closed. I guess I need to go back :)

Re: Fe'i BBTV

They can get it and are very sensitive, and because they take so long to grow they are particuarly difficult to have them remain healthy enough to fruit if you are in a high pressure area.

Re: First banana ever bought! What variety?

‘Dwarf Brazilian’ or ‘Raja Puri’. Im still trying to figure out for myself a reliable way to tell them apart, as they are nearly the same plant.

Re: Dwarf Brazilian Taste Test Results

All the fruit I ever saw from Dwarf Brazilian were more elongated with a bottleneck tip. Those don't resemble the ones I have seen.

Re: Iholena??

Looks fine to be an Iholena of some sort to me.

Growing plants in containers will almost always result in smaller fruit, but you also cannot judge size at this stage, they haven't grown yet.
