Well I've got good strong plants, well watered, good soil, lots of strong leaves and loads of flowers but not a fruit in sight.
The flowers grow but just appear on the end of a straight stalk.
Never had this problem in the past does anyone know whats wrong please. xxx

Flowers on the end of stalks is male flowers, nothing wrong with that they normally start a ew days before the females do...

Be patient Manouche, just the boys waiting for the girls, they will be along shortly, they only pretend to be good girls, when they arrive they are very promiscuous. :o
