Hi. I am new to banana growing. I am a little concerned. I have a Double Mahoi, a truly tiny, and a dwarf red. My concern is with my Red. She is growing well, her leaves are beautiful, except...

When her new leaves come in, there is a dead spot on every one. Same spot on each leaf. It is there as soon as it unrolls. It is like a brown strip. The first couple I wasnt too concerned, but now have like 5 leaves with the same dead spot in the same exact spot (the left edge up by the tip) on all. Being new to growing bananas, I am not sure if theis is something to be concerned with. I have checked the stalk for soft spots and mildewing but dont see of that going on. Has anyone else seen this? Can someone help me allay my fears? PLEASE?
