Thanks!
Yes, I think you are right. Silly question. Do I just mix mashed banana with next batch of medium I make and then autoclave it? I see I'll have to do a bit more of research on this topic.

No, unfortunately I only own this one. And a Minmaru cultivar, which I received yesterday. Was hoping to find Daruma, but then i saw this cute, round-leaved mini and settled for it instead.
