How to get double stalk from Double Mahoi
« on: February 11, 2023, 09:47:07 AM »
I have been growing Double Mahoi for years and never gotten a double bunch.

The Logees's catalogue states this happens during "the second cycle of fruiting". Was I supposed to keep the plant after blooming and use the same corm or something?  I have just been theowing the old corm away, replanting the pups and getting bananas from those.

What do I do to get multiple bunches of bananas?

Thanks!
Carolyn

I think these tissue culture plants just are not what they are supposed to be most of the time.  I also never got 2 racks.  Its a scam.

The one I got from Carol Graham 15 years ago were "Mahoi" I would get at least 2 blooms every time. I even got 5 flowers coming out one time, although the fruit didn't all develop.

You just have to get a true one.

Maybe I'll just call it Mahoi.
They taste delicious!
