I get that 4 to 5 trees is possible, but how is 30??
How?
Plantain is not tree, there's no woody stem. It's more of fruit or herb.

I have transferred 4 suckers from a harvested parent plant which was planted early April last year and about 4 remaining with visible outshoots coming out.

In three years, one sucker can give more than 30

I didn't want to reply until I get to farm on sat for pic. evidence. Lost my phone, so I lost my pictures

It takes about 9-12 months for an average plantain sucker to fruit and mature.

A plantain sucker(not all) has to reach about 5-6 months before bringing out another sucker.

There's no way a plant can bring 30 suckers in 3 years. If it's possible, all plantain farmers would become billionaires. The maximum suckers you can get from a parent plant in 3 years can't be more 5.

I planted about 100 seedlings and 70 suckers November last year. As you can see, most are without suckers yet. I have suckers coming up from few though.

Una go just dey depend on wetin internet talk for knowledge.

Farm is not done on net, it's practical. A farmer doesn't surf internet for pictures to make a point. I will upload a picture of my plantation on Saturday.

I no dey argue with you. I planted 500 suckers last year, and I'm transplanting to the next farm from the old

I thought silence was golden for what you are

To validate my earlier claim and to keep to promise of uploading pic to clear ignorance, this is a picture of a parent plantain plant of 1yr 3months. Zoom the pic and count the suckers it has. Besides, I transferred 2suckers for expansion, should I transfer more two and at maturity if one sucker is giving an outshoot of 6-7 suckers, isn't possible having "30" plantains from one under "3" years?

Again, this plantain produces two heads on one parent plant


Practical farm comes with experience and that's the best teacher, one thing that the knowledge on net doesn't guide accurately is farm
