Default Leaf in a Leaf in a Leaf

Do I have a problem with an unopened leaf with another unopened leaf inside it and yet another inside the second. The picture is deceiving,,you're looking at 3 unopened. There is another very small inside the second but difficult to see.[IMG][/IMG]

Now those in the know,,don't laugh to load if this is normal. I'm new to Banana growing so be easy on me.LOL

Is it just me or are the leaves deformed? I've dealt with deformed leaves on maurelii in the past, likely some sort of nutrient deficiency, but I know not what.

What is your fertilizer routine? Could be too much fertilizer.

use 10-10-10 once very two weeks or so and that's it.

That outside leaf I did notice it looked a little strange,,we'll keep an eye on it and see what happens.

Overfertilized?
Could be overfertilized like my plant in the above mentioned thread.

Thanks for the replies and we'll keep an eye out for things and see what happens. The leaves that appear to be hung up do look slightly deformed so think I'll hold off on the 10-10-10. The soil is a mix of Cactus dirt, manure and compost.
