I cut three bananas off on October 12 after I wrote the above quote. I did not bag them as I wanted to use them as a test group. Today two of the tree are about 25% yellow and feel a little softer. The ones one the tree are still green. I'll update as the three progress. My next cut will be four bananas of which two I'll bag and two just lay on the counter.
I also cut the terminal bud flower off this bunch today. It was about three foot longer than he last hand. I had been leaving it since it has been providing food for all kinds of bees, wasps and I think I even saw a hummer on one.
