It sounds like I am doing everything correctly then, using good, fast-draining soil about 60/40 mixed with Amend and N'Rich plus some gypsum, regular fertilizer (Banana Fuel from Wellspring 15-5-30) and regular watering via drip system. Might just be the high heat and low humidity here. Although we do have a sprinkler system in the yard that raises the micro environment humidity quite a bit at night. I am fairly confident that I'll see at least one blossom before winter. Everything is growing and putting out new leaf growth every week.
