Is it done?
Here in the maritime NW we always have cool nights. I
learned a few years ago to keep them warm at night,
and a simple blanket won't do. I put a plastic tent
over the fruit from the very beginning of pollination
to harvest. It is opened during the day, I even have
a fan to keep it cool on those few hot days we have,
and at night I put 1 or 2 60 watt lights in there to
just keep the chill off. That usually keeps the temp
about 5 - 8 degrees warmer than the outside air. You
may be too late this year, better luck next.
