From my searching on the web, heat has been my best guess as well. One site mentioned that the plants should fully mature before hot weather arrives, so I'm guessing that the seeds may have the same attitude about heat.
My one surviving plant is in the ground and growing nicely. I don't expect to eat it necessarily, but I'm just letting it grow for the fun of it. Maybe I can get some seeds from it.
Have a good one,
