I have this one Pink Oxheart. It has been flowering
freely for 6 weeks, but just set the first fruit this
last week. First 3 weeks of June were cool, cloudy,
occasionally rainy, and it didn't like that. Then it
heated up and shot up to 90F+ within a week, and
apparently it didn't like that, either. Now it has been
around 80F for a week, and it has finally decided that
it is ok to set some fruit.
You are a long way from the climate of Oaxaca,
Mexico, and Zapotec is reputed to be late maturing
anyway, so not having set any fruit yet doesn't
really mean that anything is wrong, particularly.
It just means that the plant has not reached
conditions yet where it starts to set fruit. That
could be climate or that could simply be number
of weeks from seed-starting and transplant.
