I've had my dwarf cavendish for about a month and am not sure if I'm doing what I should. I cut off the leaves that wilted away from transplant shock and have gotten one new leaf that is about 8" long but is now wilting. I can get it in really good sun for most of the day but was wondering if it's too much too soon. The plant looks like its angling towards the sun and wasn't sure if I should rotate the plant so it grows more straight. And I've been trying(hard) not to over-water but with my well-draining potting soil, it always looks dry even though I can feel moisture an inch down. Is my plant trying to tell me something? Any advice would be great. Thanks!
