      So cool. Did you happen to already have the machete or did you get it for this occasion? ๐Ÿ˜†

      I have a question. Do banana trees only produce one year and then be done? How long before you get fruit from them?

      This is so awesome and I’m just curious about the process. I don’t live in an area I think I would be able to grow one unless I kept it indoors or something. But this is absolutely amazing!

      Oh I bet they taste good. I lived in Nigeria as a kid and this reminds me so much of our home there.

      What immediately came to my mind when I saw this post was that these bananas probably taste better than anything Iโ€™ll ever get in the grocery store.

      How cool! I’m 7B so I have no chance. Thanks for sharing. I’m curious how they’ll taste compared to store bought

      Have you also found your humor of late to be like your focus when harvesting? The low hanging fruit? D:

    7. Do you put them in your protein smoothies? I found that’s the magic ingredient. So proud of you, beauty in every pixel. ๐Ÿ’š

    8. I have no experience growing bananas. Could you explain why you cut them while theyโ€™re still green? Does it improve taste or texture or is it to avoid pests?

      So they only produce once and then you mulch it? Will you grow another tree or take a cutting or something? Or are your banana farming days over? Totally intrigued now!!

      I’m so jealous. I live in KY and wish I could grow bananas as I eat them daily.

      Opened the pic and said, “Oh, that guy!” I always love seeing your posts here. Even with your head down I can tell you’re smiling at your kiddo. Gardening goals!

      Do you chop off the plant right away or let it live its fruitless foliage life?

      Thatโ€™s awesome!! My dad grew bananas in Florida a long time ago, I loved when he mailed some north to us in a crate! ๐ŸŒ

    16. ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ so jelly, banana tree would not survive my climate ๐Ÿฅฒ

      Nice haul! Put a couple in a paper bag with an apple or other ethylene producing fruit if you’d like them to ripen faster. Store-bought green ones tend to ripen overnight that way, but leave them too long and I hope you wanted to make banana bread :p
