I put my Goldfinger out yesterday to get it acclimated, it has been a house banana so far.

Since yesterday it's leaves folded a little. I have seen this on other bananas but I don't know the cause. Its leaves much more open when it was inside.

So I was just wondering what causes the leaves to do this?

Oh and in case anyone asks, no it is not potted in sand that is a 3/8"-1/2" layer of sand on top to keep the gnats at bay. My Brother suggested it to me and it seems to work well. I think it would have done better if it was a little thicker though.
