Default Re: What is wrong with my naners???

My Cavendishes did this, when they were either burnt from the sun (when I accidentally watered them on the leaves) or when it was too cold for them, than the weaker and older leaves started to literally rot on the p-stem. The only effective solution I found to my problem was to cut the leaves, otherwise the whole leaf would be affected and it would be a waste of time and energy for the naner to grow it.
Also, in your case, it might be a different kind of rotting? Maybe soil bound?
Maybe someting else? Dunno, haven't seen basjoo behave like this in my life.

Oh yeah, almost forgot. Some animals (birds, insects) tend to eat away small parts of the naner, so it migjt start rotting like this after that. But seeing your pups, I think the reason might be in soil. Try complete soil change and clean off the roots in hypermangan.
