Default Ice Cream - too little or too much water?

I have been away for two weeks and have depended on my sprinkler system (modified by me to add mini hoses to the banana plants) and rain to water my bananas.
My Ice creams, both of them, look a little weird as you can see by the two pictures and my question is if this is due to over or under watering?
As you can see the new leaves are looking like corkscrews and quite yellow and I have not seen thatearlier.

Thanks

Weird....almost looks like a nutrient deficiency of some kind. I would fertilize, personally and go back to watering manually (since you know you can monitor it more efficiently than the automatic watering system).
