Re: growing from seed or from TC?
Sometimes you get a extra vigourous seedling that if you get it VIA TC might just have average vigor. That might also go for hardiness in somecases, such as getting a seed sourced from a particularly high elevation.
Musa sikkimensis TC from Agri-starts is just plain, no red splotches, but it's really vigorous. I think they should TC "red flash" or "red tiger" instead.
Maybe TC working in conjuction with seed raised plants would be the best, like raising 100 or more plants from seed then selecting the best one, and TCing it for color, growth rate, ect.
