The third plant appears close to shooting and it's current height is 3' 10".

Pot dimensions play an important role in getting a banana to fruit quickly at a short height.

The plants were labeled as GN, Datil, & Dw Namwah.
Can you please elaborate on how the pot size makes fo a shorter plant? An what varieties were used? To me height is a crucial factor n growing bananas because my unheated greenhouse has a very low roof. HAving a shorter plant is indeed very nice for me. But, as for now, shorter plants has always meant "slower plant".
