try not to keep any paraphanalia where I live, ya know?
what kind of stress exactly?
ph? high temp? not enough or too much nutes?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!

It could be any type of stress. Just incase , have a quick check inside the cola/around the stem for bud rot. If the plant is ok it can be saved with a pair of tweezers. Make sure to nutralise the pollen/bananas with a spray of water before tweezing it out.
However if u have plenty to spare i would just pull it.

Besides stress it could just be genetics also.

LIGHT LEAKS??????? maybe HEAT??????????

It could well be.

Check all stress factors you can think of and fix the problem if you can find it. Light leak is the main culprit but it could be anything.
