The good people here identified my plant as a Namwah. It bloomed and started fruiting this month. These are my first bananas so I do have a few questions.

1. I have seen in videos people knocking off the blooms on each banana. When should I do that?

2. Should I cut off the male flower? If so then when?

3.In zone 8b with full sun how long should it take Namwahs to be ready to pick?
