[Pictures] How to Ripen Bananas on the Stalk?

The art of harvesting your own homegrown bananas is in recognizing when then time is right to cut the stalk. Harvesting green bananas too soon produces fruits of smaller size and inferior flavor with a slower ripening time. Cut the stalk when the ridges on each banana of the last bunch of fruit become flatter and rounded, indicating that they are mature. This guarantees the finest, sweetest flavor and texture for your delectable fruit. Final ripening on the stalk is easy to do, and you can manage the process to extend enjoyment of the fruit for about two weeks.
