![]() Ha, I think the audio quality was pitched in favor of video quality. Good lord that is some crisp video, did you shoot this in 4k?!

![]() That's about max on the dwarf variety, but it can get that tall. The tall types can get 18' overall and 13-14' to the growing point.

![]() You are right. I may see if I can reup the audio track with it higher. The other video I posted seems to be at the correct volume.

![]() Why would removing hands make them ripen more quickly? I've never heard that and I can't come up with any reason why it would have that impact. Namwah are always about 5 months for me.

![]() They are not dwarf and will reach 18' or so overall, if i keep the mat thin and fed. They are two seasons old, but i've grown that type for 9 years.

![]() If I let all 10 hands develop, I would be throwing away underdeveloped fruit around Thanksgiving. I would rather get 3-5 hands late in the season than none at all. If it were earlier in the year I would not prune them off. Your in Hawaii so I imagine you have bigger bunches that will take longer to fill in. 120 days is typical for me. A little less with 3-4 hands.
