I have one plant with lots of flowers but no capsicums in sight. This is the first time I have struck this as I've grown the very successfully in the past. I have a large net enclosing all of my vegie plants to keep the butterflies and birds away. They get plenty of water and fertilised with seasol about once a fortnight

Seasol is not a fertiliser. Do some research on fertilisers. I pulled some capsicums out today, plenty of flowers lately, little fruit developing, not many growing to full size, a lot being burnt by the sun. It's holiday time for the garden and myself.
