Don't forget fertilizer and check for insect pests like whitefly. ;-)

With sufficient water and fertilizer a plant may not feel the need to
set fruit. Make sure that the surface soil is dry in your pots before
you water, and "IF" you fertilize (at this time of the year), use a 0 -
10 - 10 (preferably organic).
