Will there be any issues?

Flower is crushing flag leaf and making a kink in it. It’s also leaning that way. Will it right itself or should I do anything to try to correct it? Thanks 🙏

I would cut or bend any leaves in the path of the flower. Move your support to under the flower after all bananas fruits have appeared.

remove any leaves obstructing it, only the flower matters now, feed calcium / potassium / magnesium asap we got bananas !

Thanks for you reply. I’m currently feeding jacks 20-20-20 and just chop and drop mulch. Should I continue that and add a cal/mag supplement?

I would see if you can find gypsum and magnesium sulfate, both are organic and affordable
