Default Re: Super Dwarf Cavendish is what?

Great job! All modern “super dwarf” Musas are from an experiment where massive amounts of radiation was used to force mutations. The plant the radiation was being used on was a common Musa dwarf cavendish. The outcome of the experiment was named a Musa Novak. All modern super dwarf Musa are from this one Novak!

Since then people have used radiation and other methods to make slight changes “shorter” etc to be able to patent the name like “truly tiny” etc. $$$

Look up all the research online! It was very entertaining when I studied the history of the SDC a few years ago!

As for taste it will taste like a normal cavendish banana (homegrown) 1000x better than the supermarket cardboard ones.

Great job man! These are fun to watch bloom! Good little fruit also!
