Neutral Farmerdill On Oct 26, 2012, Farmerdill from Augusta, GA (Zone 8a) wrote:

"Bandai plants are vigorous and productive, with excellent cover affording great fruit protection from sunburn damage. Bandai is extra-large in size, with an average weight of 220 g, thick-walled and mostly four lobed. This variety performs very well for early slots from hot to cold, where it had high yield potential." Sakata
