If the compost is 6" from the top I'd be inclined to top it up as the pots are possibly a bit on the small side. Better protect them from frost too up where you live! Have they had enough light? Yield is not easy to forecast but good luck anyway!

they look as if they are stretching for the light and then wind damage has knocked them about a bit. I'd put a stake in and use twine to support them.
