I think he might have been confused by the line, "For this reason, a well run banana tissue culture lab will only produce about 5 subculture cycles from a single sucker, and then discontinue that line and start over from a new field-grown sucker which has been verified true-to-type."

For those of us that have no experience with doing tissue cultures the "5 subculture cycles" sounds like 5 different batches of TCs (made from one plant) one after the other. And from that we lay-folk might assume there is a time gap between the batches.

Obviously after your last post we know this isn't the case.
