I'll have to start doing that for mine in the future!
I should have checked for the fuzz right when I harvested. There is no noticeable fuzz at the moment. (yellow) The plant was a tissue culture from Going Bananas.

I appreciate the compliments. I thought I would include a "Growing It" section in the report since every variety has its quirks and its information I wish I had when I started out. Chances are that they will have to grow it themselves unless they happen to be in your neighborhood.
