It might be a good experiment. But I doubt I'd ever be able to eat my own grown bananas again.
The reeds and various marsh plants are dying. Along with all the animals (if anyone wants a link to some pictures of this I have it) and then jobs and so on.

I don't think you will have to worry about eating your own bananas. A lot of people will mix spent motor oil with herbicide to kill hard-to-kill weeds and brush and plants eventually come back.
