Hello,
Thanks again Momoese, I downloaded that video and it is great! I learned a lot. I've got to watch it again - we have one of those bugs, I forget the name, but I'm going to try to trap them with the stem halves.
Gabe, thank you thank you. I don't have any Primativo's budding, we just ate them and I think I only have the one family (Excuse my terms, haven't got that under control, yet, I'm working on it.
Last year I had much larger bunches, but this past dry season was unusually dry and I think that's why all my bananas are a bit small. The new bunches coming in are getting bigger though and with more sun at the beginnning of the upcoming dry season, we may just get a good crop.
Check on the importing - won't do it - we're happy with what we have. It's enough to keep our little community in bananas for a few months, and keeps me off the streets (roads?)
Now that you've identified my bananas, I have homework to do.
Thank you,
Bob
