I'd have a Picture but this will have to wait till tomorrow. In the mean time is there anything I can do for this?

Big difference :^) I have some that it running down the nanner. I hope it doesn't effect all of them. Nice Pictures (like always) :^)

I sprayed mine with 10% alcohol and water. Don't know if it helped but it didn't hurt

Well it only gets worse. You can see how the trunk is getting brown and deteriorating.

Well where its normally sealed pretty tight up top mine wasn't and was holding alot of water in the stem. Dwarf Cavendish(s) are prone to Cigar end rott from what I have read. I chopped her off at the base. The rest of that corm is getting moved tomorrow. :^)
