Re: How hard can it be??
Harvey,
You would be correct if I were growing my bananas in soil. This is one of the reasons I swear by coco coir. I personally called the USDA commissioner in Bakersfield (RIdgecrest is in Kern County) to confirm the requirements and because I grow in coco coir and the bananas are being grown indoors in my grow room I was exempt from a whole load of requirements. By the way my local USDA inspector paid his visit yesterday and I was able to drop my shipment off this morning for it's journey to Ridgecrest CA in full compliance. It pays to follow the rules and do it right.
Michael
