Tropical Fruit Discussion / What is this Papaya cultivar?

« on: November 13, 2024, 09:31:11 PM »

While I was in Guam a few months back, I visited my uncle and he had a tree loaded with huge round papayas, about the size of a bowling ball. The flesh ripened to a reddish-orange color and was nice and sweet with no weird flavor. Can anyone identify this cultivar?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Banana tree snapped

My banana tree snapped

Both the pseudostem and the peduncle snapped. The tree was leaning heavily for the past month, so I bought some stakes from Home Depot and propped it up last week. However, the part of the tree around a foot and a half above the support kept bending down, and today it finally gave out, and as that snapped, the curved peduncle also snapped under the weight of the fruit. What can I do next time to prevent this? Also there was no signs of ripening in the fruit, so do yall have recipe suggestions for unripe bananas?
