Q.Hi, Why Does The Quiescent Pod Fall Off?

Zone Trinidad and Tobago | Anonymous added on January 3, 2022 | Answered

Every time the flower opens and the fruit reaches the next stage it falls off. Initially I thought something was eating the fruit. But I placed a bag only to find that the pod once again fell off. Im not sure why this happens
