Re: How to water when having fruit on the bananas?
That's hot. Have you had fruit before? It seems, based on what I've read, that that is possibly too hot for fruit to mature correctly. Regardless, it sounds like that kind of heat, which in the sun is more like 120-140F, would make the plant require watering every morning for certain.
As far as a second watering during the day it might be best to do it after the sun's intensity has waned, say between 5 and 6 PM so there's not as much evaporation. Unless you are not watering the whole plant (just the root crown) then perhaps earlier would be better, say 3 PM. It won't hurt the plant by any means, not with that heat.
