I have a small bunch of what I think are Orinoco (Hey its Oklahoma, I am lucky I got any fruit lol) That I pollinated with my Musa Velutina, that just happened to be blooming at the same time. The question is, the little skinny fruit on the top left are the ones I think I crossed the pollen with, there are some more to the right front that are hidden a little by the fatter fruit, and I made sure I pollinated a few off of each hand. Could a successful cross change the shape of the fruit, or is this something that is just normal? Also will removing the remaining male flowers speed up the ripening process?
