Default Re: Successful Fruiting in zone 6??

Well, I can recall if it was somewhere on this forum or on another banana info site that as long as the fruit have enough time to set, and reach proper size, that ripening can be done "artificially" the only draw-back with that is certain varieties cannot be ripened that way but there are some that can. Like I said before, if you are willing to put the time, effort and $$ into it, then it couldnt hurt to try it out!

Cheers
Shaggy
