    Mine did this last year.  I was told it was because they were too crowded and they need space (who knew?!).  Not sure if this is the issue for you but worth mentioning.

    I always give mine a good 'haircut' after the first flowering and they come back even better.

    Just take the old flowering shoots right down, cut off any old tatty leaves.
