Aside from determining the right time to harvest a banana bunch and keeping your mat in a three generation system for optimal fruit production there is a very important process to follow every time you harvest bananas from your plants: The pseudostem needs to be cut down to the ground as it will not set fruit again and the center portion, the true stem, needs to be hollowed out to prevent corm weevils to lay eggs at the 'gate' of the corm.
