Wow! your growth is awesome!

My 2 cents--- You already know how i feel about Sevin, so I won't stick the knife too far in... Identify pest FIRST! then TREAT! nuff said

The leaf curl I've always attributed to environmental conditions. The curl up to save water in hot conditions.

The blossom drop... I notice they're in dark containers.. check the soil temps. I have the same problem in my black nursery containers and even when ambient temps are in the 80's, it can push the soil temps well into high 90's and triple digits, but i wrapped white trash bags around them this year and blossom drop is very minimal.

The thought of over-fertilizing... I seriously doubt it. mushroom compost and/or fish ferts are so low that you'd have to be pouring the bottle of fish ferts in order to overfert. I'm not too sure either one is even a plus in container growing. It's so hard to maintain a healthy microherd in smallish containers. Yours aren't necessarily small, but they're not LARGE either. The only time I try to go "organic" in a container is in a very large container like a half whiskey barrel.

Looking awesome though. So you must be doing some things right!

great looking plants. Weird with the lack of pods. Those plants look like they should be loaded up buy now. Maybe it is a symptom of the leaf curl problem you were dealing with. Now that they look to be past that, hopefully they will start loading up.

Nice plants. You're undergoing the temp range that we've had in Texas since 2010, hundreds in early June. It takes a toll on pod production. This year is non-typical as we've had over 23" of rain and temps in the low nineties, and the plants are putting on beacoup pods. When temps are that hot, give'em a good spray down in the AM so they can absorb some moisture with their leaves.

Just wondering why you don't mulch your containers? Really helps maintain moisture levels. I'll be posting some pics tomorrow of in-ground and small-pot production and size differences. IMHO, you don't need a large pot to get good production. Seems that my plants like to be root-bound and produce more. Plus, it limits the size of the plants to overwinter.

Thanks for the videos...

I've never tried mulch. I've always had a lot of success just like they are, so I guess I never looked into it.
