Hi, i have big healthy plants buth but the fruit are turning yellow and shrivelling. Ive harvested 6 out of around 20 ive had to throw away. Ived been trying hand pollinating but it seems to make very little difference. Are there any other issues that could be causing this?

Read up about pollination - it could be some disease - I have no idea.
