I had a chance to talk to this farmer for a while. Apparently he got the plant from a friend four years ago. He started with 5 plants, and from those he now has several hundred. He said that these will fruit within 6-8 months. Extremely vigorous and in 4 years no BBTV. He said that he also grows DB and Saba Dipig. He has had no DB's with BBTV also, but his Sabas get it. What I found interesting is that on his 3 acre farm, he collect 800-1100 pounds of banana a week. 80 percent are these Cambodian Apples.
