Do bananas ripen faster in a plastic bag or do they ripen faster when not in a plastic bag?

Bananas ripen quickly on their own as they're one of the few fruits that release ethene. Keeping them together in a plastic bag should make them ripen. Keep them away from other fruit that you don't want to go off, and if you want avocados to ripen put them in a brown paper bag with bananas in an airing cupboard.

I think you mean an apple will ripen bananas or green tomatoes. The apples as they ripen give off gas that aids and speeds up the ripening of other fruits, like placed in a brown bag with bananas or tomatoes and other fruits.
