Default 3rd year basjoo's?

Hello all. I have some Musa Basjoos that have come back for a 3rd year without any winter protection in NJ. The first year they grew great and got over 8 foot tall. 2nd year not as good. Only one new sprout but it got to about 5 foot with few pups that did not make it.
3rd year, this year 6 pups sprouted and started growing great. But they have since stalled and are looking sad. Some of the plants have skinny leaves & do not really look like banana plants at all. I do not believe they are being over watered.
I was hoping maybe someone can look at the pics and give some ideas. These things should be way bigger this point in the season. Thank you in advance.
