Wind brought down my banana before it was satisfactorily ready

On this morning of 212.12.2025, while walking homeward from the farm, I noticed one of my banana trees fallen. Most likely it was brough down by the strong winds after overpowering a supporting I had made for it. Although its fruit was ready enough, I am sure it is going to ripen since most fruits in each bunch are fully developed. Probably the taste will not be as sweet as expected. I once experienced a similar mishap and the bananas were just fine for teatime.

Good that the fruit was ready enough before the tree fell down else the fruits would have gone waste. It might not be as sweet as those ripened on tree , but for sure they will taste good and can be used

I was going to ask if you had supported it but it seems you did. At least the fruit is sufficiently developed that it won't be wasted.
