So it seems that I have a Mortgage Lifter that doesn't know what it means to drop blossoms without producing fruit. That's certainly a good thing, but given that the first set of blossoms that came from this one plant ended up with over 20 flowers, it's going to make supporting this thing a bit tricky!
Here's a picture from about a week or so ago:

In the meantime, there have been another seven or so fruit that have formed on this cluster, bringing the total into the 14-15 range...with more blossoms still left to possibly fruit.
Question is...given that these are (supposed to be) Mortgage Lifters, is this too many fruit to have in such close proximity? Should I thin them out a little? If I were to leave them: Will some/all of the fruits be stunted? Would I need to provide extra nutrients (compost tea) to keep them growing healthily? Would it become nearly impossible to support the fruits if they grow to full size?
