I have had similar to the pictures above. My plants loaded up in the lower to mid levels, and now most are 4-6 feet tall, and not many blossoms. I either have thrips as suggested, or the fruit set is heavy enough to cause fewer blossoms? I am going to check for thrips tonight. Spider mites have already shown up, not sure why as it has been wet and cool.
