Default Mussa sikkimensis leaves folding downwards

Hello, i am new to this forum and a new banana tree grower.
I have a couple of mussa sikkimensis plants (about 9 months old) in the patio and into medium - to - large size pots.

It's been quite some time since the leaves are turning downwards along their vein. They look healthy otherwise and their growth is continuing at a good pace. I read somewhere in here that this a natural reaction to hot weather.

I am not sure that this is the case because it all started when the weather was not that how. Also, i am generous in watering them and at night when it is cooler the leaves do not come back up. Any suggestions or advice. Bananas are so beautiful plants and i have to see them folded down and being "poor".

Thank you in advance.
