Default Weak Bunch... What happened?

My Orinico is flowering again. But what is going on? The last bunch had 7 hands on it. Now its down to only 4, what is causing this? I am looking at how far apart the hands are and I am thinking it may be over fertilized whats your take? Even the bananas are shaped funny right now. I was really expecting to get at least 7 hands again if not more.

Same thing here.

First bunch


Second bunch only two hands




Could this have to do with watering ?

Yeah!! I would think maybe because you have two on the same matt flowering at once. I thought each matt could only support one bunch at a time. I hope someone has more info for us.
