Default Re: Goofy Acting Ice Cream Banana Plants

A few times I have seen fungi which do not normally attack Musa cause damage and strange growth when they infect the plants under certain conditions. This is one idea about what could be happening as it does not look like a normal banana disease, but the plant does look diseased. However, something like this is very difficult to diagnose, and for now I would recommend to just treat it like normal and see how it progresses.
