They are leggy and stretching for light. Repot, trim, hit with nutrients even a dose of miracle grow, wait a few days

Keep em watered as necessary and given a bit of sunlight, come back in a week or two if they donât have any fruits starting. As long as the stems arenât turning yellow and/or falling off, they should be good.
But in case they arenât, start to think and do your research regarding everything below
-Sometimes lack of pollination, inconsistent watering, nutrient deficiency, or stress from extreme temperatures can cause blossom dropâŠ
-so if they are in too much direct sun which doesnât seem likely because it looks to be on a patio
-nutrient deficiency: your leaves look healthy, but possibly need more potassium and phosphorus to support the growth might be a possibility, but if your fertilizing as needed, then likely not the issue. Do more research on this to make sure you arenât over loading it with nitrogen at this stage.
Also, if you havenât fertilized before, be careful and donât over fertilizeâŠease into it.
-Lack of pollination: some people take a q-tip and rub it around the inside of the flower, I use an electric tooth brush and pollinate the flowers since I donât have enough natural pollinators in my area. Some people literally just shake their tree and knock loose a bit of pollen. Whatever works for you.

I grow outside, in the ground and when my plants are dropping blossoms it means my soil is too acidic. To correct this I get lime from my garden center and follow package directions.
