Default Re: Need a recommendation on what to do next

Amend your soil with compost and manure, fertilize with a 2-1-3 N-P-K fertilizer like Fruit Fuel, mulch your plant, water regularly and you will see some major improvement.
It is hard to say by your photo what variety you have there. Could well be an Orinoco.
Banana plants will only produce one bunch and then die off. Therefore they produce pups which will grow and produce the second generation crop.
With good care your follower plant will look lot better than what you have growing there now.
