I'm guessing that as long as the bloom has already started to form in the corm, there is no reversing of it. but there can still be several leaves ahead of it. Timing is critical, so I wonder how well they can time this. Can you count each leaf that emerges? Under ideal growing conditions (i.e., without my frosty winters), I would guess plants are more uniform in height and maybe some people just use height as a gauge as to when to whack them back. This might be something I'd like to try in order to over-winter a banana in fruit more easily.
