Good for your soil too

@@jmbkpo it's magnesium that will really make you soil, correct?

@sprock lol. neat. My giant plastic jar of metal arrived in the mail, yesterday. No diarrhea, yet, fortunately!!

@sprock lol, noted

I'm just guesstimating here, but potassium is some kind of regulator in proceses of enzymatic decay and cell death. In other words, K supresses nuclear compounds in the cell that activate its own death, so, in order to preserve the fruit, or the seeds more so, the plant has some mechanism to migrate the potassium from the peel to preserve the fruit some more time. ish?

Indeed, it’s bananas!

I think there may be another factor at play here. In Brazil, there is a banana I like a lot, Banana Terra. I've noticed that the peel gets thinner is it ripens, even within the same bunch, meaning that the boundary between what is peel and fruit isn't that clear cut, and changes with ripeness. I am not sure if the same occurs with Cavendish, and if it does, I suspect it would be to a lesser extent, but any amount of 'peel' being left behind on the banana would help explain this discrepancy.

@@Nevir202 Wait, non-Cavendish bananas still exist? It's a pretty commonly-believed myth in the USA that Cavendish bananas are the only ones that survived a plague. We only get Cavendish and plantains up here.

@@LieseFury That's so backwards that it's laughable, the plague is affecting ONLY Cavendish bananas, as they're a monoculture any time it's detected, they have to slash and burn the entire grove to prevent propagation So if anything, you might have to get used to a different type at some point. But ya, there are at least half a dozen types here that I see regularly, terra, prato, ouro, nanica, maca.

Yeah, the funny part is he now had 2 perfect samples of it available but didn't choose to test them to double check the findings

@@scania9786 im guessing the methodology to extract from the fruits themselves is a far more complicated matter to isolate the potassium perchlorate.

well it surely would make more sense to do that in the first place, who cares about the non-edible part :D :D but the processing part is less messy for sure

@@mguy19 It's the same process there's just a higher volume to dehydrate and burn down.

We all know who watched to the end! Wonder how many people closed the video early? I almost did.

Probably be demonetarized for it.

It was actually full of ethylene. 😊

@@theCodyReeder was it just for the hint or would it actually help ripen the bananas as ethylene diffuses out?

@@PabloGarcia-ff1pi it helps, but bananas also produce their own so keeping them in a closed container accelerates ripening

I love the hidden ethylene oxide in test swabs. It's gunna help increase cancer rates and our chemozerapy business will boom.

@@nirodper Would be nice if someone invented a greenhouse that in which would be occasionally sprayed ethylene into the air to accelerate the growing process.

But banana yummy 🍌 🐒

I agree, it looks like when the fruit is peeled green more of the meat comes with it. Hence he had more mass of peels with green

@@cheeto4493 Well yeah, but he said that the peels got thinner at the end in the conclusion. So if the goal is to determine the amount of potassium you eat, it makes sense to use the natural separation layer as the boundary between "peel" and "flesh".

@@cheeto4493 You'll notice at 2:11 that he weighed the bananas and divided them evenly into groups before peeling, so the fact that the ripened bananas had thinner skins isn't relevant to the experiment.

​@@kevinm4157 Two things: 1) "when the fruit is peeled green more of the meat comes with it," if this is true, then that could be source of error. This problem is resolved by scraping both ripe and unripped bananas from that possible "flesh." After all, you are trying to separate the peel from the flesh, any flesh in the peel is a source of error for measuring. 2) "he weighed the bananas and divided them evenly into groups before peeling." Except not all banana _peels_ would weight the same. I had trouble with the fact that he did not weight the banana peels after drying them to get the biomass, and then once more after burning them this is in order to figure out how much the mass of the peel affects the content of K in the peel: more peel mass, thus more potassium mass. There is also another problem, which is he processed each batch separately from each other and THAT can be a source of error. All in all, it is possible that he could've had less banana peel mass and that his extraction process could've yielded less percentage of K for ripped banana peels, which would have resulted in those differences. I repeat, POSSIBLE. Whether that's true or not, we don't know, and while we don't know, we have to deem the results inconclusive. Note: There is no need to extract K from the flesh (since you can deduce where those differences come from), but for this small experiment it would've been a tiny bit better to see the flesh:peel ratio of K. And, as a matter of fact, if his hypothesis is that K moves from the peel to the flesh, he DOES need to make that ratio, otherwise he's not testing that hypothesis, but one that states "Peel K content is different in ripped and unripped bananas." Using a ratio would be considered direct evidence of K moving from the peel to the flesh (assuming no other environmental sources of K).

With what was the Potassium Perchlorate mixed in the end of the vid? Looks like carbon, but I'm not really sure of that. Also, can't be gunpowder, since gunpowder alone could create the same effect.

@@Ygr3ku KClO4 (I think that's perchlorate, don't shoot me) is a powerful oxidizer. Pretty much anything that burns can be used as the fuel in your flash powder, including things like powdered sugar and flour. I assume Cody just used charcoal.

Oh snap, I thought the same thing. Use it as an osmolyte to drag across the water from skin to flesh.

could also be the peel gets dehydrated, higher concentration in the peel so diffuses to the flesh

If the soil is sufficiently fertilized.

there's also enzymatic processes that change the texture, taste, and color of the banana. it's a lot more complicated than it seems.

It's preparing the fruit to lure microorganisms in and stocking the nutrients to feed the soil food web that will make nutrients available to the seedling. Except bananas have been modified to the point where they don't seed naturally anymore.

Glad im not the only one who noticed that :D

Or whatever comes after the Cavendish finally succumbs to the fungus.

It's also more expensive

Yes! A Tech Ingredients and Cody'sLab collaboration video would be awesome! They have a similar sense of humor and their approach to science in general is quite reminiscent of each other. (I never thought of it until now though!)
