    I decided to harvest a rack of bananas and it required a ladder and a strong banana rack catcher. Thankfully, only 1 banana escaped in the process.


    I think it weighs a good 20lbs!

    The bananas were so heavy that I set my coffee down and caught a chicken sipping on it and wiping her beak off. I better make a new cup!

    I love your deck. Did you do it yourself?

    I gave up coffee years ago, and haven't eaten bananas in a long time. So, I voted for BACON!!

    Thank you very much! Yes, it's built out of scrap wood and materials. I 3D printed the connectors for the dome part of it. Not my best work, but it stays dry and it's strong. About 2 years old and seems to be handling the elements. I would have built a prettier floor if it wasn't scrap materials.

    Excellent choice! Bacon's the best! I'm impressed that you gave up coffee. I'm still addicted, but have been drinking a little more tea to lower my coffee intake.

    My doc wanted me to avoid caffein, for heart and BP reasons. Decaf just ain't the same. When I was working, a coworker and I would take our morning coffee breaks at 10AM, became a ritual for years. But I had no problem dropping it. Never got "addicted". Since I'm disabled and homebound, getting fresh veggies/fruit is difficult, so no bananas. But I like certain banana-flavored foods I order online.

    When I was a kid, we made Banana & Mayo sandwiches. Sounds weird, but actually tasted good. Pineapple & Mayo sandwiches are good too.

    Coffee wires me so bad that I have to duct tape my mouth shut to keep my foot out of it. Banana while healthy are also a carb bomb so even though I like them, I try to avoid them. Give me the RIBEYE!

    Very nice! I'll have to chop this one like you. I think the trick I discovered is bananas love mulch. I collect fallen leaves, some green waste and fertilizer and mix them together. There's also a tree in which the wild flock roosts in and I collect the droppings and mix it all together and keep it covered. Every once in awhile I'll let it get rained on the stir it until the pile gets nice and steamy. Once it's rich and cool. I cover the base of the bananas and they like it. I think your bananas will get bigger and better each year!
