Should I brace the one on the right? I've seen people talk about bracing for pots, but not sure if I need to here. I braced the one on the left at first but it didn't seem like it needed it, so I took it away and it's been fine.

I wasn't able to pull up your photo, so I can't comment on your particular situation. However here is my experience: I have had several bananas with fruit that didn't look like they needed bracing ... until a big wind storm came along. So after having had a few plants blow over in storms, I now brace them all. It's extra work, but I haven't had a single braced plant blow over.
