My experience is that it takes about 2 weeks for most bananas to acclimate to full outdoor sun after being under grow lights indoors. I would recommend putting in the spot outside where the plant gets a few hours of morning sun for a week or so and then gradually move to full sun. If the leaves wilt its the banana plants way of saying too much sun too fast. The same rule goes for most palms and tropical plants as well. Some plants are more sensative than others. If the plant is small enough you can always cover with a frost cloth to provide some shade. I did that with my sago palms and it worked well. The same is true if you divide pups in the summer, put them in the shade for a couple weeks or they will probably die from transplant shock.
