Default Re: Normal growth?

What you are seeing is the transition from female flowers to male flowers--the male flowers may actually set a small stubby fruit, but it will not grow into anything edible. Sometimes there are actually some "transitional" bananas that will be in between the male and female forms, but they usually do not amount to much.
