The new growths are softer and easier for bugs to eat. Now I think it is likely an insect problem.

I don't know what is available in Ecuador. An organic pesticide called Bacillus thuringensis or BT is the spores of that bacterium. They are spread on the plant. When insects eat the spores the bacterium kills the insect. This bacterium does not affect humans, and it is approved for use on organic food crops. The powder must be applied again if rain or watering washes it off the leaves.

When flowers die before they open, it is often because the plant does not get enough water, the temperature is too high, there is too much sun or the humidity is too low. I think your humidity is good so this is not the problem.
