Re: Video - How bananas get into the box
Thanks Jarred, that was cool! I like how in the second video he says the leaves are cut to let in more sunlight so the plant can continue to grow.

Re: Video - How bananas get into the box
That was very informative. I had 1 question. Why are they letting the mother stem continue to grow. Is it to produce pups, I thought they only flowered once?

Re: Video - How bananas get into the box
Yea its cut down right away so the pups can get light and shoot up.
When I heard what the narrator said, at first I was like.. ummmmm.. then I realized he must really mean for the other plants on the mat to get sun.

I will now go add a youtube button to the text editor so you can just type the U1DBQgAJTWg part and highlight it, then click the youtube button to wrap it with the yt tags.

Re: Video - How bananas get into the box
OK, now you can just paste the U1DBQgAJTWg part and click the YouTube icon I just added. If you don't see the icon, you must click the Go Advanced button to see the full what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor with all the post editing options. The Quick Reply box you see at the bottom of this thread is the slimmed down version. In addition to this new YouTube button, the Go Advanced version also gives you the smileys

Really odd to see videos of stuff I see whenever I go to the coast...... |

Re: Video - How bananas get into the box
Thank you for clarifying that, Chris. Looks like they are in partnership of the cooperative by the labels on the boxes. I will update the first post to remove that suggestion.
Welcome aboard and we're honored to have you as a new member here. Please make yourself at home and do stay in touch with us! I'm sure we can all learn a lot from you.
