Harvesting Bananas! Everything You Need To Know To Grow Your Own Fruit!

- Опубликовано: 29 авг 2019
- Bananas are by far the most the easiest, most abundant fruit, even where we are located in zone 9b, just north of Tampa, FL. Even with little to no care & the yearly (infrequent) cold temps - they always keep producing for us here. We might even suggest they are nearly failure-proof *with the right climate & just a little bit of guidance.*
What makes them even more productive is management & that is what this video is all about. How to manage your banana "mat", or rhizome.

YES. This is a cool style of video. Can’t wait to see more on other tropicals. You guys have got it dialed in.
Just realise how long i have been followed you. Watching Ahao grow up, Dawang be fatten up and your baking skill level up over years has been one of my great joys.
Be safe Pete! Your family is in my protective thoughts.
Thanks! Hopefully she calms down by the time it gets here 🙏
Here in Hawaii, I just harvested my first ever bananas. But I didn't cut the trunks down, but I did push them over and break them off at the base. And yes, I noticed that there were slight depressions in the bases where I removed the trunks, that filled up with water and attracted flies.
Amazing!
The tip about banana beetle is also very useful!
I love how your vids are full of energy and info and are very concise. Thanks Pete.
Thank you!
I'm harvesting my first small crop of bananas today! Thanks for this video.
Those are some impressive banana plants you have there. I think I need to feed mine more after watching this video.
I'm glad this video was helpful for you. The banana plants are even more amazing in person. They grow huge and pristinely in the understory of my food-forest
I once drove 3 hours out of my way from LA - Folsom, CA just to visit a banana plantation 17 miles south of Santa Barbara on oceanfront. I love them in smoothies or as ice cream (frozen/puree). I bought 4 varieties because that's all they had left after a busy weekend.
That’s awesome Don! Homegrown bananas are the best
Awesome tips Pete! I've two racks of bananas fruiting right now. Last year I also got two racks ripen before frost in Sacramento area. It was great sharing with family and friends flying from Chicago during Thanksgiving. This year will be the same.
Thanks! You must be feeding them good.
Funny you mention splitting the banana trunks. I just harvested a bunch of Orinocos earlier this week and did the same for the first time. My thought was that they would break down faster. Nature doesn't split the trunks so I am curious about the "poisoning" of the soil...what gas do the stalks release?
Great video Pete needed to learn about my bananas I have about eight plants trees whatever they are doing well and I do p on them A friend told me it works I swear
Tomatoes too especially for end rot.
It’s rainy in Clearwater. Hurricane heading our way. Be safe Pete.
Thanks Tommy! Yeah, we dogged it all day in Clearwater. Hopefully it loses momentum 🙏
Pete--1st but wanted to get on here to say be SAFE !! If you are still in FLA, forget youtube--we LOVE your content but can all wait !!! Take care of your family and your belongings...hoping & praying for the BEST for You & Yours ! Also, hoping the nurseries there can recoup and still have a great late summer & fall season. They supply us in Metro Phx as well ! Fyi, we have a "running" FB joke on urea here, so a share of this video will go over well :)
Thanks Jeff! Woke up to what looks like a hard north turn after it hits the Bahamas. I’m thinking we might luck out this time.
Yes!!! Pee is free and amazing in the garden! Gets everything growing super fast and makes the leaves super green! If you have any annonas they love it! As do annuals like corn and squash!
This video was really helpful for me. I bought a house that had existing apple bananas and we just harvested our first bunch! Hope we can grow some more.
That is awesome!
I have been pouring urine on my banana trees for over 40 years. Those burro bananas are the same variety I like most. The waste removed from the cliump I mulch with a lawnmower. In fact everything here gets mulched with a mower for appearance and faster composting.
We got a couple ornamental bananas as gifts this year and they're thriving now but we quite a bit north of you. If we can successfully over-winter them I'd like to find some varieties that could fruit in our shorter season. I know some folks have been able to produce fruit on the coast up here, we're in the foothills of the mountains though. Love these plants even for their beauty, but would greatly appreciate locally grown, and uniquely flavored bananas. Thanks for keeping us inspired!
That’s awesome! I know people growing the ornamental bananas in Massachusetts 😉
Very interesting and informative video Pete. I have to start growing some bananas 👍🏻
Thanks Trish! 🙌
Great info, when do you cut the flower off?
Wow this is awesome! A friend of ours has this Banana and recently shared some of the first fruit with us. We had no idea what kind it was but it was delicious. Thanks for sharing this. We will definitely start hanging our racks upside down now.
awesome video..just moved from bahia brazil to la fortuna costa rica...loved seeing these tips
Im glad i watched to learn about the off-gassing.
Just the advise I needed, I have 3 racks on my very first banana cluster planted two years ago, I was shocked, they just kept popping out and one huge rack in my back yard, wish I could remember the varieties, but who knew I was gonna stumble upon Green Dreams and fall in love with bananas and all the rest...after 2 years you can no longer see my home from the road, I hope Dorian stays in the ocean, can't bear to lose anything...stay safe...BTW, I have machete envy...lol
Awesome! It looks like the storm is turning north and avoiding us at least on the west coast. This was my baby machete 😉
Wow i love your videos so much!
Thank you!
Great video , just planted 5 difference varieties (43) trees so thanks for this info😁👍🏽
Oh nice! Thanks
Come to INDIA you will love it here. We have like 1000's varieties of bananas and dishes made with it. And also have thousands of brinjal varieties as well.
Just what I needed to hear. Thanks Pete!
Pete man, this is the kind video you must do! a placer to see you doing your growing work friend! sorry my english and keep going! cheers from Argentina
Thank you! Everyone seems to love this format.
:muscle:
Great pro tip video! I like this idea or a few shorter clips that give an in-depth understanding of why and how to help production
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Stay safe!
Awesome Pete, thanks
Hey Pete, do you always wait for your bunch of bananas to start turning yellow before you cut them off and hang them up?
What’s up Pete. Saying hello from Lutz Florida
What's Growing On?!
I also have dwarf Cavendish and ice cream banana Plants growing in Tucson Arizona
Awesome Jake!👊
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL hey its all thanks to you and this channel keep up the awesome videos
Beautiful vid as always. Cograts on getting it under 5 minutes. I'm sure you could talk about bananas for hours:)
Thanks Harvey! Short videos are a struggle.
Grow bananas! Awesome video Pete! Good to have a video on what to do when cutting a plant that has already fruited!
Thanks Jose!

Awesome video Pete thanks like always. Keep it pump up brother!!! And be safe !!!!
Thanks Rafael! 👊
Great info !
Great video and really helpful advice, cheers!
Great video! When do I take the bunch of bananas down, when they start to turn yellow, or when the flowers on the ends are dried up? What happens if I dont cut the banana tree down after i take the fruit off?
Awesome and shared.
Sweet, thanks!
This is such a fun, informative video that you’ve inspired me to go take care of the wild banana we’ve got out back. They produce a lot and we eat a few off there as tostones (fried green banana chips). Thank you!!
Awesome! Thanks 😊
Thanks for tips! We have had 2 dwarfs for 2 years and yet to get frimuit in lakleand fl- will try these tips!
Thank you❤
Very informative video Pete! I like to think I'm a pro at growing bananas but I learned some very interesting things in this video that I didn't know before.
Thanks Brad! Me too, these guys from Brazil really gave me some pro tips.
Thanks
Thank
now i know what to do with my banana in a couple of months . thanks for videos. and stay safe with hurricane dorian..
Didn’t know those sun shirts were Green Dreams bling. Get some links up. Merchandise, merchandise, merchandise! I’ll buy a few for when I mow my pasture.
Thanks Tim! Working on it 👊
very nice thank you!!
Hey Pete, great video, good time great info.. great channel
Different style of video for you Pete! Lennon did a great job.
Thanks Joe! Im digging Lennon’s style too. I’ve got him doing two videos a week from now on. I’m excited to see the results.
Awesome video... Again
Thanks Juan! 👊
Cool video learned so much
Glad you enjoyed!
In the North side of West Malaysia 🇲🇾 .. The tender heart of the banana stem is harvested as a vegetable to be cooked in beef curry..
Sounds yum 😋
I don’t cook store plantains until the skin is black. The inside is soft and little orange.
Would it be too late to cook yours when the skin is black? The store bananas would not be as soft or sweet if cooked green. Most Cuban restaurants in Miami also fry sliced plantains after skin is black.
Yours are cute and shorter.
hey Pete , just wanted to say thanks been learning a lot from you. I'm in 9 B also.
Thanks Sandra! I apprentice the feedback
Beautiful
Pete, you're superman !!! At 0:48 you're cutting the banana tree while talking, and not tired.
Bananas_w/*Potassium-« it's xtra energy fuel food.
Hahah! It’s all those I eat 🤪
It is man's instinct to pee on a tree! And now we know why 😁 great video Pete!
Thanks Terry!
Off of balconies, too, but "society" frowns on that. ;))

NICE info and you the man with a machete!!
Pete, nice short video. Many of your videos are to long for me to sit and watch. Love the video.
Awesome video Pete! We just finally got two varieties of bananas planted out at our property! I need to get up there to see your property and the fruit trees you're growing! :D
Thanks guys! You really need to visit. We really lucked out with that hurricane 🙌
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL we really did! So relieved!
I like this video format as well. It really gets into it. When are we gonna see footage from Reece's Mango Throwdown?
Thanks Micheal! Unfortunately I’m not sure. I had a hard drive crash with all kind of epic footage including the tasting. I’ve sent it off for recovery, so let’s hope 🙏
This video was so dope my dude ! So much good info too 🤯
Thanks bro! I expect your banana game to hit the next level 👊
Thank you for the knowledge
Hi Pete, could you do a video on june plum, also one on grapefruit. Really liking the videos and watch a few every night - have been helping with gardening practices
Thanks Daniel! I don’t grow June plum or citrus. That might change in the future...
Oooooo Thailand got a lot of banana tree also
Legend! thanks for the extremely useful tips

Wolf!👊
Pete need help! Putting 3 varieties of bananas in ground and watching all your banana videos again as well as other. Can’t get this question answered perhaps you can help.
Question: When growing the banana trees in a line we keep the 3 stages ( fruiting, mid height and pup) when doing a banana circle would we keep that same concept of 3 stages or am I suppose to separate them?
Yes! Each clump can keep this same cycle
Super
I Love the dessert bananas 🤤
Oh no I hadn't eat them when I was visited my home town 😁😂
I have always urinated around my plants, surprised and happy to see that strategy confirmed. :D
🤣
Do you cut the flower off or leave it on? I have a dwarf namwa growing indoors up here in Pennsylvania and it is setting a bunch of bananas. Thanks
They say if you take the flower off that energy will then go into the fruit.
POUND POUND POUND # # # that DIRT
👊
Cool!
Pete, thank you for this valuable info. I am over on the space coast bracing for Dorian, but your video made me smile. Btw, I noticed your water shoes. I have some for my boat. My hubby made me promise not to use them in the garden. Wait until I tell him you're using them that way! 😂😂 Maybe I need 2 pair!
Stay safe y’all! This storm is a monster. These boat boots are my favorite farm shoes :)
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL Do you have a link for the boat boots? I'd love to find good garden boots for hot/humid weather. Thanks!
Hey Pete! Can you do a series on dryland food forest farmers? Love your videos!
Thank you! Yes, that’s a doable subject.
Tht variety of bananas is called buck buck in the Caribbean
Cool!

Awesome, thanks!
Great video!

Dope video
Thanks 🙏
Hey now I guess you know hurricane Dorian is on its way be safe you and your family
Yes, thanks!
Aloha good video thanks.
Please what was the class in Costa Rica?
Bobby Burns thank you! It was a 6 day Syntropic farming course and Rancho Masatal. The teachers were Brazilian teaching the Ernst Gotsch methods.
Hello Pete! Great teaching video, are you close to that hurricane path? Do you happen to have a teacher ,spillway, and small pond on your property? Do you have any swales there? Just be safe with your your family, thank you for this video.
Thanks! Yes, we are just north of tampa and bracing for 110-120mph winds. We have one large swale but mostly high ground here. We shouldn’t have any water problems. I’m worried about wind.
Guys like any excuse to pee outside!! Lol 😂
You know this! 🤣
Not a fan of the Orinoco I prefer growing the French Red Plantain 👍🏼
Wow
🍌🍌🍌such 'squareBox banana is good to be sliced for tempura fried... Otherwise using boil water to steam😁😁😁greatHarvest
That sounds yum!
