Week 3 for the Tropicana Cookies x Chiquita Banana seedlings and the batch is developing with healthy early-stage vigor.
The plants are maintaining compact growth with balanced leaf development and steady vertical progression across the tray. Internodal spacing remains short, helping create stable and well-structured seedlings during this early vegetative phase.
Some individuals are already showing slightly wider leaf expression and active apical growth, suggesting strong hybrid vigor from the cross.
Overall development looks homogeneous with healthy color, consistent growth rhythm and no major stress signs visible at this stage.
So far the genetics are looking stable, vigorous and very promising for future selection work.
