Just keep pushing that wheelbarrow down to my house!

I harvested some store bought cavendish

Congrats on your bounty!

46 pounds of Pisang Klotek. Should have harvested a week or so ago to avoid the splitting skins. My wife wanted me to smile so I fixed it!

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

You're so handsome with that smile. :ha:

I have banana envy. I'd like a change from Namwah!

162 fingers. These are abnormally large compared to past harvests. The fingers are easily twice as large. This is my first harvest of PK in this new location in my veggie garden. More nutrients, more humidity, less dry heat from the concrete driveway and stucco wall, but pretty much same amount of sunshine.

Harvested my first bunch of "real deal" Blue Java today. Only 64 fingers. Sampled one and the center was a little stringy, but the taste was not bad at all. Cannot wait for the remaining ones to fully ripen.

Those look perfect!!! :08:

Did you bag'em ?

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

Yes , paper bag

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

I use cloth ones when I remember to take them otherwise plastic because I hand them off to a charitable group that distributes bread. You bake bread in paper bags or should.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

No I don't! :)

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

I use the plastic one's for walking the dog :nanadrink:

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

Oh, try. If I had my own kitchen, I would.

I don't have a dog. It seems I do have a tree frog but he seems to do his business outside in small enough ways that I can't even find it. Perfect pet.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

Do you walk the frog ?

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

I do bake bread many times per year, among other things. Sometimes I bake on parchment paper but never in a paper bag.

Re: What did you harvest today (bananas)
 

No. Jack just hangs out and has been since I planted my DC. In late November I assumed he'd gone to hibernate but he was in my tarp ready to take a trip to Cocoa for Christmas; I shooed him off and he glared at me. Yesterday I was pulling apart pots and discovered him clinging to the Red Solo cup on top. After removing those I needed, I gently placed him, still perched on his base, back in the group. He winked at me but never moved. I never feed him or walk him but he always seems glad to see me. Or should that be revel in making my heart skip a beat at his unexpected smiling face?

Great pet.

Panettone has been baked in paper for ages so this isn't a new idea. I think I may have done it before; I know I've done Boston brown bread in cans. At some point I'll be able to try a sourdough loaf in a sack and will post pictures.

My 2nd bunch of Mysore, just under 5 months flower to harvest. The rats and geckos ate a few! This bunch is much bigger than my first 7 months ago, and the fruit are bigger, some being the size of DBs. Not selling any of these, too much of a treat and I'll have no problem eating them all!
