It obviously damages the plant, but what do YOU consider is needed for the "adequate number of leaves emerge before the bunch does to fill the fruit." The "luck or great ability to time " is the easy part in the Tropics.
If it's done early enough and the plant has time to grow close to it's normal height the fruit fills but bunch size is dramatically reduced.
It appears your goal is to do it close to bud emergence, but how close?
What do YOU consider perfect to be?
