Tropical Fruits: banana, 1 by jojogarden

It seems my banana may be finished making fruit, since the latest "row" of banana babies didn't form and the ends look almost rotted. But there is lots of the hard red-covered piece hanging down that might contain more baby bananas as the "leaves" curl up and drop off. May I have some guidance on what is normal, what to watch for, when to expect the fruit to ripen, how do I know when it is ripened, etc? Am I in the right forum? TIA,
