Mildly Infuriating

The fruits of my labor are being affected 😞

Hello, dear community. Today I feel quite sad and upset seeing this situation. To give you some context, a while back we decided to plant banana trees because they’re a profitable crop to harvest over time—they reproduce on their own, and we just take care of them.

We enjoy planting this kind of crop as a hobby, and the benefits we get from the harvests are satisfying.

For several months now, we’ve been experiencing a heat wave, which has resulted in us not receiving enough water. The rains didn’t come until July and August. As a result of this drought—which we know as “cuaresmera”—this tragedy has befallen us: several of our banana plants have fallen over, along with their bunches.

Hola querida comunidad, hoy me siento bastante triste y molesta al ver está situación, para hacerle contexto, hace un tiempo decidimos sembrar plantas de bananas, porque es algo rentable para cosechar en cierto tiempo, ya que se reproduce solo y vamos haciendo mantenimiento de las mismas.

A nosotros nos gusta hacer este tipo de siembras, por hobby, además que los beneficios que tenemos en las cosechas es satisfactorio.

Desde hace varios meses, hemos estado presentando una ola de calor, que trae como consecuencia a qué no nos envíen suficiente agua, las lluvias hasta ahora en el mes de julio y agosto fue que se dieron, a consecuencia de esta sequía, la cual la conocemos como cuaresmera, fue que nos sucedido está tragedia, varias de nuestras plantas de bananas se han caído con los racimos.

There are several factors behind this, but we looked into what might have happened, and it was literally the drought that lasted from the beginning of the year until recently—half the plant is dead. Additionally, Venezuela is currently experiencing a tropical wave, during which I’ve noticed strong winds, which caused the plants to collapse—not to mention the added weight of their clusters.

The saddest part is that even though some were already ready to be harvested, others needed just a little more time—yet we still had to cut them down.

We left one of the plants there with its cluster because it’s such a huge loss to take it down like that; let’s hope they grow a little more before the plant dies completely.

Existen diversos factores para que suceda esto, pero estudiamos un poco lo que pudo haber pasado y fue literal la sequía que hubo desde inicio de año hasta hace poco, la parte de la mitad de la planta está muerta, además que en Venezuela está presentando una onda tropical, dónde he notado vientos fuertes, lo que hizo derrumbarlas, claro adicionando el peso de sus racimos.

Lo más triste es que aunque algunas ya estaban listas para cortar, otras le faltaban un poco más para estarlo, aún así tuvimos que cortarlo.

Una de las plantas la dejamos allí con su racimo porque es una perdida muy grande tomarlo así, esperemos de chance que crezcan un poco más, antes de que muera en su totalidad la planta.

It’s frustrating to see something you put so much effort, time, dedication, and care into disappear so quickly in just a few minutes. It’s something that’s out of your control.

But with a positive attitude, we’re still grateful because we still had a nice bunch to harvest and enjoy.

I’d love to hear from you in the comments—would you ever dare to grow bananas or some other fruit? Best regards!!!

Es frustrante ver lo que con tanto esfuerzo, tiempo, dedicación y esmeró, se pierda tan rápido en unos minutos. Algo que sale de tus manos.

Pero con buena actitud damos igual las gracias porque igual tuvimos un buen racimo para cortar y poder disfrutar de el.

Me gustaría leerte en los comentarios si alguna vez te atreverías a sembrar bananas o alguna otra fruta, saludos!!!

    Wow, that’s just like my experience. The banana trees in my garden are going through the same thing; several of them have toppled over while bearing fruit. What’s really frustrating is that they fall when the fruit is still young. It seems like we’re experiencing the same weather, even though we live on different continents.
