Hey diloretta, I think all you can do at this point is keep doing what you're doing. The shower sprays and soap treatments will keep it going until spring. I'm pretty sure that this is very common for basjoos held in a house where the conditions are not as ideal as a humid greenhouse or the outdoors. Next year I plan on spraying any bananas I plan on overwintering this way with soap before I even bring them in. Good luck.
