Nice bunch. Congratulations.
I know nothing about plantains, so my question, do you harvest them before they turn color?

Anke,


Thank you!.....FHIA-21 Plantain harvest time is approx. 85 to 105 days after flowering!.....Pictures don't do justice but, my FHIA-21 Plantain bunch lower fingers were turning yellowish, plus they were plump too!....They were approx. on their harvesting time!.....

Commercially, most people are actually looking to buy hard green plantains. One of my customers seems to prefer the 75 day old bunches over the ones that are starting to turn. I guess with the yellow ones, you only have a few days to move them, but with the green ones, you could put them in cool storage and hold them for several weeks.
