One: You don't have a disease in your new plants. The dead brown edges of the leaf was not from a disease; and you were told that several time above. ... That is the BIG advantage of buying TC plantlet is they were propagated in a sterile environment. ... The rust you refer to is a fungus which is in the soil and the air. Treat it with fungicide. I use copper sufate. It is much cheaper than the off-the-shelf brand mixes.

Two: The red markings is called 'wine stains'. Some banana varieties have this; some don't. It is normal and usually the wine stain fade away as the leaf & plant gets older.
