I know this is alittle bit late in response, but it might help next year if it's too late this year. Did you fertlize with alot of nitrogen? It will cause your plant to florish like a tree, but leave you with less chance of getting fruit. Add alot of phosporus which promotes flowering and root growth, and cut down on the nit.
