Re: A'eae pseudostem splitting
Also look into False Panama disease disorder but Erwinia seems more likely with the symptoms you are experiencing. If you can find the nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae locally,you can drench all your bananas with it and get rid of the borers which let Erwinia or whatever, in. This is a soil dweling nematode species so it may even persist in your soil and plants and thus continue to protect your plants more than a few months.
Laying off watering is a good plan for now. If you fix the culture,Erwinia shouldnt be much of a problem. If you apply Pseudomonas fluorescence,it will also be of great help in suppressing such diseases.
