Nana growers under these conditions give the potted plants more water. ... WRONG !!! ... The plant drooped because of radant heat that is munch hotter than ambient air temp (+20 deg or more). Nana plants in pots needs shading ( no direct hot sun) and cooling. .... The excess water in the pot will cause root rot.

Make sure the potting soil is very fast draining and do not let the pot sit in the excess water in the saucer. Nanas like fresh water and do not tolerate stagnate water.
