I had a couple of 3' naners in 16" containers. They quit making new leaves, although the pseudostem seemed firm. When I went to peel off some dry layers of the pseduostem, it was not green inside, and they fell over. I have now cut them off at soil level, and pulled the soil away from the top of the corm looking for anything squishy. I didn't really find anything soft (one of them was maybe a *little* miost where I had cut a pup off a few months ago).

I am not sure what to do now, and I am stumped as to what happened. I figured I'd pull the corms out of their pots and take a look at things. Should I cut some of the roots off and put them in smaller pots? Should I cut off the little parts of the corm that may be rotted? I guess I won't water them until they start (hopefully!!!) growing again. It's been a week or 2 and they have done nothing yet.
