Hello Folks,
I have now pollinated about half a dozen on the #815 but the weather turned
hot today (around the ton)
The fast growing new leaves do not seem to be able to handle the heat and
sun and become badly burrned. I am only able to stop the burning by covering
the growing ends with shade cloth.
Can someone advise what is the critical period for pollination regards
temperatures above 35C/ 95F.
Will the pollinated fruit set if subjected to these temperatures 4, 12 or 24
hours after pollination?
