Hey, Nate, could you comment further about how the flavor differs from standard supermarket "Chiquita Bananas?"  I'm trying to decide which three banana varieties I should plant.  Thanks!

Hey John, they’re just really really sweet and without the acidity you get with supermarket (cavendish) bananas, if you like some acidity these prob aren’t for you. We grow gold finger too and that’s a great naner, also not much acidity, but the apple banana is just all sweet. Also growing the cavendish for that sweet/acid balance between the different variety’s.

Hey FV, I don't grow any bananas yet but down the line I might want to. If I like the super market bannanas should I just stick with cavendesh or is there another cultivar with the sweet/ acid balance you recommend?

Hey Hammer sorry I can’t really help you out there, only tried the ones I mentioned but the Goldfinger has a nice balance, its sweeter, and just better tasting overall than cavendish imo, and it doesn’t need staking. My dwarf cavendish has its first bunches on it right now that are ripening up so hopefully they’ll be better than the typical grocery store cavendish. I’d also recommend trying to find dwarf varieties or varieties that don’t need staking, staking and getting up on a ladder to get bananas sucks.
