different approach to the next banana tree harvest

This is the 3rd tree. I will follow roughly this method of care for the fruit, from 1:43 to 2:23

Starting to cut...

This went to one of our neighbours who loves it...

Removed the flower ends like in the video. I didnt do it for all though. The bananas with the flower removed produced a protective sap instantly.

Left untouched, middle plucked, right plucked but not completely...

Sort of done...

The day after update:
The left was done yesterday, on the right was a couple of hours ago. You can already see it darkening/hardening. I pulled the flower off the middle one but not completely so the effect wasn't there.

22Sep2020 update: the fruit are filling out

15Oct2020 update: top comb started to ripen

20Oct2020 update: harvested all the fruit
