I am worried if rot will set in and gradually go down the plant. Happened to my DC last year

I took a tour of my garden after the blast it looks and feels like a war zone. Its sad. One day from so much life to this. I will take pictures . Im going to have to just start all over again if they donot servive im not giving up this is my first year with really growing bananas in my garden I guess it was best to go through this so I can learn. I still want to go on my island
