No! The plant is full of flowers but they all drop (same for my two other Rocoto varieties) and time is running out fast...

I soaked my seeds in diesel for an extra long time, so maybe that helped 
I have 3 backup plants that are producing pods quite regularly and one that has several hundred flowers but no pods.
I used Ocean Forest in my growbags, maybe that helped.

Same story for me buddy; we're definitely not having a great season overall around here but still, I would have expected at least 1 pod! My plant is full of flowers & flower buds too but even hand pollination does not help. Some flowers seem pollinated but a few days later the peduncles turn yellow then they fall.
Go figure...

Give ‘er hell man! My plant was putting out awesome until the temperature rose and the root knot nemstodes sucked the life out of it from below.

Slow down now!!!Had a few more ready this morning.
Up to 755g now.
Ok guys, this first picking is a lousy 586 grams, and is NOT from my contest plant. I repeat, NOT from my contest plant. I almost forgot about these on my back up plant in the main patch, and it’s time to deseed, so some were a bit ripe. Anyway…here is a 586gram first pull off the #15 gallon plant. Isolated back up. Non contest pan.
As for the update on the contest plant. Let’s just say, “something” happened, I’m working through it, I will only harvest once this year if at all from the plant, and I’ve been documenting it the entire time, so you will all get to see a recap of it at the end of the season if I finally get anything from it.
For now, Guru total: 0 grams
