Hello Gang;

Got 4 naners carrying bunches, can I remove some of the pups ?
Or would it stress out the Plant ?

Thanks Ed

first #1 I'm not qualified to answer your question.
I think this post hasn't been answer because:
#1 different cultivars recover/mature and can be affected differently after pup removal.
#2 Is it a good time of the year for you? Bananas almost ready?
Any pictures?
If your bananas are all the same cultivar "I'd" test em out and take some of them from a couple and taking pictures to see how they recover and stabilize growing strength. (great time to experiment)

This is my second batch of basjoo, I'm considering leaving all these on during winter to encourage plenty of roots for next year. Good idea, IDK?? testing stuff/limits is the fun thing about growing bananas!

If there is a chance of it blowing over your better off just cutting the pups so the roots are intact.. :^)

Yes, but you have to be careful not to destabilize the mother plant.

Thanks Gang ;

3 are Namwah 1 Oronoco have bunches Since Early August , I think I have a really Good Chance Of Harvesting them before the 1st Frost..

All are very healthy, The Oronoco Fruit are getting really big, look like plantains .
The Namwah look like The small Puerto Rican Ninitos small bananas, I remember tasting them at Going Banana's & They Where excellent !..

I will post some pics tomorrow..
Thanks again Ed..
