Keep those flower dry. Humidity needs to be low. Lay off the Nitrogen. The plant will just want to grow and not want to reproduce. Keep it below 90F. Let the roots dry out some between waterings. Good luck.

Don't be scared to rough up your plants a bit especially in a greenhouse. Wind is what will do it outside so shake them a bit.

I am thinking you are probably lacking pollinators in the green house. Look at my diary over the winter to see how I pollinate during the winter competition. To get a good set without the bees you need some vibration.

Shake baby shake. Burn baby burn. Only one is good for blossoms ready to be pollinated resulting in successful fertilization. Several flicks to the stem daily or gentle vibration of the blossom using whatever will help.

I have the sides of my greenhouse rolled up, and both ends open. I thought that bees and such should be able to get in there and do their thing.
I tapped on a few dry blossoms and noticed super small larvae or some sort of bugs. I didnt see any wings, had sort of long bodies, maybe the diameter of a hair. Any idea what these are and if they are an issue? ill try to take a picture
The flowers are dry, i hit them with a 10-52-30 a few days ago.
