rules: how to claim your state add up species of bananas and the extra(duplicates) of bananas you have and post it if you have the most your king of the hill for your state! once pups are repotted then you can count them

species count as 3 points ...........extra bananas counts as 1

so I have 16 different species and 14 extra that are the same

16x3 =48+the 14 extra= 62

so I claim Idaho at 62 points! now if someone has more species they can pass you up pretty quick but that's what makes a good collection! good luck hope every one has fun participating don't forget to add your points


now if you cant be king of your state don't worry you can claim 3 more spots

1 KING
2 DUKE
3 BISHOP
4 PAWN




KINGS:

Lancelot: Wisconsin 115

Greenfin: Kansas 110-140

Danamastro: Idaho 62

Robhguz24: Hawaii 163 or more

Funkthulhu: Nebraska 24

Abnshrek: Louisiana 102

merce3: Florida 54 (Duke) Kat2: 15

Scottu: Pennsylvania 47

CTPalm: Connecticut 16

crazy banana: California 50 (Duke) sunfish: 1000(passion points) lol

mKsmth: Oklahoma 18

35 cultivars in 58 mats here in Hawaii. Some mats are 1 pseudo stem, while others have several. This is in maybe 2000 sq ft of space. 27 flowering at the moment of 12 cultivars. Generally 20+ at any given time.

hey every one I made the kings post at the very top so people can see who the kings are and ill re-edit it when there's competition for king or whenever people start claming their hills/state

Lancelot

This really could be a fun thread. In the geocaching world I'm the King of Camelot, so king of the banana world would also be cool.

CTPalm

Connecticut:

4 varieties + 12 = 16

sunfish

Must be fall

scottu

Ok for PA. We have 7 good sized mats dormant outside, 3 diff cultivars and had 1 flower so that = 10.
inside 6 different other cults plus 16 more repeats of species matured enough to be in their own pots. 10+18+16=47 in PA.

crazy banana

I do not even try counting, because I already know that Pitangadiego is the "King of the Hill" in our region.
There are seven different varieties in my yard, cannot count the number of pups, but have 4 fruiting plants at the moment. But who cares about how many plants I have. As long as someone can count each and every Musa plant, he/she cannot be the "King of the Hill", because the REAL kings cannot even count their plants

dana mastro

well if you don't post then you cant be king that's the rules so suck it up and start counting points and couch banana is way cooler than train banana lol

crazy banana

Haha!
I give it to pitangadiego without counting, not just because I am a lazy "couch potato" , because I have already started to winterize my plants with frost cloth.
Does a guess count? My guess estimate is 50 plants....

dana mastro

a guess will work lets not exaggerate though lol and me and my husky are SUPER COUCH POTATOS! you pretty much summed up my life....
exept work just cooked for 120 people and a husky ^^

cincinnana

I have one....
