I think you have a very sharp machete but you're cutting the wrong forest.

I believe it is within your means to grow specific cultivars from pups in the springtime and then overwinter them to produce fruit in the following year. For heaven's sake, there are members here in Little Rock Arkansas that do this.

If instead you wish to pursue the poorly charted research topic of accelerating banana fruiting with profitable results in non-tropical environments then I refer you to Gabe15. As of this post, I am unsubscribed from this thread.
