Default Re: When to harvest

In almost all cases if any fruits are ripening then the whole bunch is done forming and should be harvested. Towards the bottom of the bunch, the hands tend to be smaller and often with a number of very small, malformed fruits, but those will never get bigger. Just harvest the whole bunch and everything will ripen and it’ll be fine.
