| I planted a batch of picklers a month ago after the rabbits at the first. They grew and are groing great, but I have no flowering whatsoever. What Happened |

| If the plants are growing well and there is no signs of any disease but no blooms then likely it is available nutrient related. In the deep south high heat can delay blooming but in zone 5 temps I'd suspect there is excess nitrogen in the soil or insufficient phosphorous. Excess N leads to big bushy, plants with few to no blooms. So what and how much have you fed them or what have you added to the soil in the way of nutrients? And I assume these are in ground? If they are in containers then that is a whole other set of issues. Dave |

| I did feed them at about two weeks with miracle gro. Probably too early. After some reading, I probably wasn't supposed to do that until they had already bloomed. |
