Flutter typeahead showing all suggestions ontap field (UNWANTED)

I am using the typeahead package for flutter to show a textfield with the suggestions capability, but I am getting unwanted behavior. When the user first tap the field, I do not want to show any suggestions but it's showing a list of all suggestions like a dropdown field. I have even set getImmediateSuggestion: false but it's still doing this[![enter image description here][1]][1]

              alignment: Alignment.center,
              //padding: EdgeInsets.symmetric(vertical: 16),
              //height: (0.0725 * y),
              child: TypeAheadFormField(
                keepSuggestionsOnLoading: false,
                hideOnEmpty: true,
                hideOnLoading: true,
                //initialValue: '',
                enabled: false,
                hideOnError: true,
                textFieldConfiguration: TextFieldConfiguration(
                  //textAlign: TextAlign.left,
                  //autofocus: true,
                  
                  controller: _typeAheadController,
                  style: TextStyle(color: mainTextColor, fontSize:14, fontWeight: FontWeight.w400 ),
                  decoration: InputDecoration(

                      )
                    ),
                ),
                //suggestionsBoxController: ,
                getImmediateSuggestions: false,
                suggestionsCallback: (pattern){
                  return DegreeSearchService(uni: currentUniversity).getSuggestions(pattern);
                }, 
                itemBuilder: (context, suggestion){
                  return ListTile(
                    dense: true,
                    title: Text(suggestion, style: TextStyle(fontSize: 14,color: Colors.black),)
                  );
                }, 
                onSuggestionSelected: (suggestion){
                  _typeAheadController.text = suggestion;
                  currentDegree = suggestion;//enable next press
                  //pageController.animateToPage(++currentPage, duration: Duration(milliseconds: 250), curve: Curves.bounceInOut );

                }
              )
            ), ```

Try to change your suggestionsCallback to not show results if the pattern length is 0, for example:

suggestionsCallback: (pattern){
  if (pattern.length > 1) {
    return DegreeSearchService(uni:currentUniversity).getSuggestions(pattern);
  }

},
