I have Roccoto reds too, and orange.... not far enough along yet
though.
Mine are indoors, hydroponics.

I planted a Rocoto Red this year to see what they are like and
I've
got the same symptoms -- the plant looks very healthy, and has
been
blooming like mad all through our typical Southern California
June
(overcast and cool) and July (Sunny, Hot), but no fruit set. Is
there some magic I don't know about? Peruvian bees perhaps?
