Default Banana Tree Question

If its a tree, its not a banana. Banana plants are just overly large
rhizomatous perennials.

If you live in a warm enough climate, you can just let it be.

Be sure the plant is well watered. (Even if you don't even have a well to
get water from!)

My banana tree flowered, and is starting fruit. (probably technically
wrong, it is making bananas)

It is also getting late in the season. would I be more likely to get
ripe fruit if I cut off the newest part of the bloom and let the
development go to the existing hands of bananas? Or should I just
leave things as they are?
