I harvested a massive rack of Williams banana this morning. These things just grow like weeds here and it keeps producing year after year with minimal care. The only problem is that it’s difficult to sell these because it’s a common banana.
So today I planted another popoulu plantain, which I find sells better because it’s a niche crop. The long row of popoulu I planted earlier this year are doing great and a few made fruits already.
