Default Re: What is this White Crap?

It's more likely these are sugary deposits from the guttation of the banana(the tears you see dripping). Guttation pretty much always leaves a white sugary deposit crust behind as it dries and this is easily washed away by wiping with water,although unnecessary. Excessive guttation along with leaf edge yellowing could mean that you are overwatering but not necessarily so. Worth considering it though.
