My eggplants have shown no buds as of today, August 22. So I googled "why do my eggplants have no flowers?" This thread was one of the hits. It's one I started in 2016. I have no memory that this problem happened before. This year the plants are big, but they went through a period of getting yellow around the veins. Research suggested that too much water could lower nitrogen absorbtion. Too much water was a possibility as we had a solid week of rain, we use black plastic for "mulch," and hubby loves to water. But I only found one hint that too much water could suppress flowers.
Any new ideas?
