Default P-Stem Keeps Rotting After Cutting

Hi y'all,

I'm in the process of digging up some bananas to move to another property and a lot of them are developing a rotting layer in the p-stem. I've been chopping them down until there is no brown/rot, but it seems to come back within a few days. I've checked the corms for any rot and they all look good. There are a lot of new roots forming also. Any tips on how to stop this?

Your plants grow from the inside out.
Your outside leaves will heal and turn brown and add support while the center will sort itself out and push a new leaf.
This will take a few months.
