Most of what is available are runts or premature harvested plantains as a result of the heavy downpour and the violent winds. Aside that, most Plantains are just recovering from the dry season drought. The sudden heavy rains usually causes must Plantain trees to break off at the neck region. cry.
Nevertheless, this is the period suckers sprouts out in numbers.

The Good News is...

I have been waking up to constant Bangs on my gate these past weeks. Everyone is looking for plantains to buy. Unfortunately, the numbers of bunches I constantly harvest on my farm isn't even enough to carter for home consumption grin. Schools have resumed and parents are all over me, begging me to help them secure plantains for their cuties grin grin. For now, I have completely cut-off wholesale buyers, even if you be direct consumers, I must know you have kids before I sell to you. grin grin wink
